Tony, Congrats on being elected! Just a query: a friend mentioned that (i) the only persons eligible to vote in the Comunidade elections are those (males) who are currently registered on the comunidade active list (ii) if there is less than the required quorum -- 25 or so -- then elections are not held, and the government (or Governor?) is entitled to nominate anyone to the posts.
Is this the way it works? Just curious... and for my understanding.
