Editing Round 8B/Initial Ruleset Draft (section)

== Elections ==
At the beginning of each title's election day, all players who have that title lose it.

On a title's election day, a player can make one Declaration of Candidacy by posting a message stating their intent to do so in the channel #elections, specifying the title. If that message is deleted or modified during its corresponding election, the Declaration is retracted. 

Every week, on a title's election day, an election for that title starts as soon as a Declaration of Candidacy for that title is made. Elections last 24 hours.

Once an election ends, the corresponding title is awarded to players with Declarations for that election. For each election, no more instances of a title may be awarded than that title's maximum number of holders.  If there are more Declarations than that title's maximum number of holders, the players whose Declarations have the highest weight of votes gain the title. Ties are broken in favor of players who made earlier Declarations.
