CHARTER: s6(g)(5): exclude incapable TOB members-elect
If a TOB member-elect becomes incapable of being a TOB member after the election, exclude them from the members-elect set and hold a by-election after the TOB seats expire. This avoids the problem of expelling 3 or more TOB members after an election due to a merger, and simply pretends as though the member had become inelligible before the election began. This is simpler and more fair to both voters and the members-elect than re-running the entire election or simulating a re-run of the election using the Condorcet results.
