While blankness of some senators saddens me too, I cannot leave it unnoticed that there are not one, but three idle senators. Surely it would be more fair to target your own lover, Senator FireCrazy? Aren't you trying to misuse senatorial trust and strengthen your own position, eliminating any unexpected voters?
On a political side, it is pretty easy right now to gain 10 influence from scratch by helping others and getting acclaimed for it here and there. The influence threshold(and you have written the law yourself) is there for a reason: we do not want idle people replacing other idle people. If there are no new candidacies for the senatorial seat - that is only because no one qualifies by the activity and usefulness levels, though over time I can see that at least Elorf, ColdBones and even Zargoth could rise to power naturally, without any additional "help", by just serving the community and assuming important roles.
Neblime Inkydance (+13) calls for the deposition of Derpislava Patternedlance (+10)
For:1
Against:1
OOC: Overall I am a bit suspicious to this vote, but not strongly opposed. I do not have anything good to say about Derpislava's work in the senate, but I do not see any reason to throw her away right now. She is not hurting anyone, is she?
Also the idea to throw people out of council and then acclaim without any proper improvement (like you did with D4E) sounds wierd to me: if you do not want them to be uninfluential - do not conspire against them in the first place.
