-**Rational:** There is no basis what the aditional part of the fee; I would not like to see discusion if some "rich Member" should pay more just, becouse it is rich. Fairness of the "equal fee times number of votes" is obvious and indisputable. Lets keep it this way.+**Rational:** There is no basis what the additional part of the fee; I would not like to see discussion if some "rich Member" should pay more just, because it is rich.

 +|**Original wording:** | (5) If only one candidate is to be elected, the candidate who gains more than 50% of the votes cast and most of the votes in the first round, is the person elected. Should no candidate gain more than 50% of the first round voting, a second round will be run between the two highest scoring candidates. The candidate who receives more than 50% of the votes cast and most of the votes in the second round is elected.\\ (6) If several candidates are to be elected, the candidates who gain more than 50% of the votes cast in order of the highest result to the lowest are elected, until all positions are filled. If not enough candidates have reached 50% of the votes cast, a second round of voting will be held. In the second round only those candidates who got the highest number of votes will be eligible. The number of candidates shall be double the number of positions still needing to be filled. The candidates who gain more than 50% of the votes cast in order of the highest result to the lowest are elected in the second round, until all positions are filled.\\ (8) Method of voting will be approval voting, meaning that every voter may have one vote per candidate. |

 +**Rational:** The election procedures as listed in statutes are clunky, may result into deadlock or some unfairness.
 +It is reasonable to put just the provisions for election process into statutes and specify the rest in Rules of Procedure.
