    The Constitution doesn't say how long applications last, no. That's a good thing, though, imo. When it was 3 days people were complaining that wasn't enough time for candidates to apply so Flinn and I decided we'd set it at 7 days to give people room to properly see the thread and apply.

    I don't think the text addresses what should happen in the case a VoNC brings the term of a Consul to an end.
    It does.

    It's my understanding that the censors immediately organize an election.
    That's corrrect.

    So basically, you have decided by yourself*, without any consultation of the Curia even informal nor announcement, to set the application duration at 7 days?

    * Censors are appointed positions and as such the Consul is responsible for overseeing their activities (Constitution, Section I, Art. II, Footnote 11).

    No, it was discussed in the Curia.

    I may have missed it then. Can you point me where the discussion is?
    Thanks in advance.

    I remember when the timeline for elections was part of the Constitution. Not sure when it was removed but I am betting it was done inadvertently.
