Top Branch Officials
Each branch will be led by three Top Branch Officials, each serving 15 year terms, staggered every 5 years. The Branch operations are guided by the decisions made via a majority vote among these three Top Branch Officials. These officials are not appointed by an executive, but are instead elected into those positions by the Branch personnel themselves.
Qualifications
A candidate wishing to become one of the three Top Branch Officials must have served for a minimum of 10 years within that Branch at the time of the election, be an eligible Voter themselves, and wish to become a candidate for the role.
Proportional-Rank Choice Voting will be used to determine the qualified Branch Member moving into the vacant spot from the pool of eligible candidates, and these elections every five years are also the opportunity to grade and impeach an existing Top Branch Official if necessary.
Alternate
In an election year, the runner up in the Proportional-Rank Choice Voting will serve as the Alternate. This alternate will shadow the three Top Branch Officials so they would be ready to step into the role should one of the three Top Branch Officials be officially removed within the next five years. They may provide assistance to the Top Branch Officials as requested, but they will not vote, communicate, negotiate, or otherwise provide work exclusively reserved for the Top Branch Officials.
With the next election, the new runner up from the pool of willing and able candidates will become the new Alternate.
Exclusions
No Top Branch Official will be eligible for that same position within their Branch again. They are eligible for any other role within that Branch and any role in the Liminal State outside that Branch, including as a member of the Executive Group. An Alternative may only serve as an Alternate for the same Branch once. They may serve subsequently as a Top Branch Official, Executive Group Member, or in any other position within their Branch or any position in any other Branch.
Should the Alternate need to step into the role of the Top Branch Official, then they will be restricted in future positions by all the rules applicable to the Alternate and the Top Branch Official. Additionally, an Alternate replacing a Top Branch Official will serve the remainder of the term of the official they are replacing, but will be considered the junior member.
