1. The Delegate will be elected by a majority vote. If no candidate receives a majority vote a run-off election with the two candidates receiving the most votes will occur.
2. The Vice-Delegate will be elected by a majority vote. If no candidate receives a majority vote a run-off election with the two candidates receiving the most votes will occur.
3. Cabinet offices will be voted on separately and be elected by a plurality vote. Court Justices will be voted through a single ballot, with the three candidates who receive the most votes winning seats.
4. In all elections an option to re-open nominations will be included. For non-judicial elections, if this option receives the most votes the nomination period for that office will be restarted.
5. For Court Justice elections, if the option to Re-Open Nominations receives enough votes to be placed within the top four, then the nomination period will be restarted for all seats with lesser votes than this option. The candidates who receive the top votes will win however many seats are left to be filled.
