The Corlexian Senate

The Corlexian Senate was the main component of the Corlexian Republic's Government. It took 5 representatives from every Ruling Party in the Republic. Most actions done by any bearaucratic position in the Republic, namely the Corlexian Hierarchy, had to be approved by the Senate.

Priority and Momentum System
The Senate decided on things based on a priority and momentum system, each request would be formally submitted via a computer system, and was submitted with both a momentum and a priority. A higher priority item would be voted on before a lower priority item. A higher momentum would mean the representatives who came from the same Ruling Party would decide on the spot and send someone they feel best represented them to one of the Higher Chambers, there were 4 Higher Chambers, and the one Great Chamber. if there was a momentum of 1, they would vote with the full amount of people in the chambers, if there was a momentum of 2, one representative from each ruling party would have to leave, and they would vote in the first Higher Chamber, up until a momentum of 5, where one representative of each ruling party would go to the 4th Higher Chamber.

Voting
Once seated in the appropriate chamber, the representatives would begin by debating open forum. In order for one to speak, they must take the floor by moving their pod forward into the center of the chamber. Each Representative may speak individually or with their ruling party. They are allowed 10 minutes to speak and anybody may propose a break, reconvention (come back tomorrow), or an end to the meeting.
