Actually, I was not asking why or how this is done. I was stating
the conflict behind this. In short, nominating more than one person for
the chair is self-contraction. This violates the purpose of nomination,
and should not happen.
And also, should we add a rule of nomination that one person can
only nominate one candidate? This rule is most common in all kinds of
elections.
