Remember, per LEGO:

Any eligible Member can nominate another eligible Member for the position of President. Another eligible Member must then second the nomination.

A prospective Presidential Candidate may not nominate or second their own ticket; however, a prospective Vice Presidential Candidate may do so.

A Member can only nominate or second one individual; however, if that individual declines the nomination, the nominating Members are free to nominate another individual.

A Member cannot run for the position of President if they have nominated or seconded another Member unless the nominated Member has declined the nomination or is otherwise ineligible to run.

Once the nomination has been seconded, the Candidate must publicly accept the nomination and declare another eligible Member to be their Vice Presidential Candidate in a post on the Election Area. The Election Coordinator will then validate the ticket and the Candidate pair may begin campaigning. If the Candidate does not publicly accept the nomination by the end of the nomination period, he will be disqualified.

Eligible Members are defined as individuals who meet the MOO definition of Member for the 30 days prior to the start of the Election Season and continue to meet the definition up to and including the time of the election activity in question.
