Background
Procedure
Article Two of the Torisakia Constitution states that for a person to serve as president, the individual must be a natural-born Torisakian citizen, at least 35 years old, and a Torisakia resident for at least 10 years. Candidates typically seek nomination from the various political parties of Torisakia, which is typically conducted under a three-stage runoff election. Each stage is a direct election where voters choose the candidate of their choice. The first stage typically consists of all the candidates within a specific party. The top three candidates with the most votes move on to the second stage, where another vote is held. The top two candidates then move on to the third stage, where the winner of that election is named the nominee. The presidential nominee typically chooses a running mate to form that party's ticket. The general election in October is also a direct election, with each nominee receiving constituencies based on the popular vote. If a nominee receives the majority of votes in a constituency is said to have 'won' said city-district and is awarded it. The candidate with the most constituencies is declared the winner of the election and is formally President of Torisakia.
The Thirteenth Amendment states that an individual cannot be elected to the presidency or serve as President more than twice. This prohibits former presidents Adrian La-Pryor, Kian Logan, Steven Douglas, Johnson Crandall, and Doug McDowell from being elected president again. Former president Rosalind Dupond, having only served roughly half of her first term, would normally be allowed to be elected president again. However, Article Two of the Torisakia Consitution prohibits any president that has been removed from office via impeachment from serving as president again. Therefore, because Dupond was removed from office in 2016 via impeachment, she is not allowed to run for president again.
