Just doing some napkin math, it usually takes at least a week to get the final language and present that to the MEC. If they vote to send it to MEMRAT you are looking at about a month of road shows before the vote. So looking at the end of October at the earliest? If the majority of his intended yes voters are furloughed October 1st they won't be eligible to vote. Am I missing something?
