Quoting limited to 2 levels deep[/quote]Re that version of '2', Id' suggest changing "any citizen who would otherwise be allowed to vote" to "any citizen who would otherwise be eligible to vote".
Re the 'optionality' question: Yes, proposals that would effectively apply only to some member nations (rather than to all of them) can be legal as long as they don't actually state that nations can choose whether they apply.
In addition to toning-down the preamble, I'd suggest placing a clause at the beginning of the operative section which clarifies matters by saying that this resolution applies "wherever and whenever an election for public office is held in any member nation". This should make it clear enough that those member nations currently not holding elections wouldn't be forced to start doing so.
