That works too.

The election commissioner wouldn’t need to get up at five am though. He/she could just wake up at his/her usual time and count any vote cast passed 12:00 UTC time as invalid. Your way still is probably better.

As far as Article 1 goes: I think that the bare minimum length for declaring candidacy should be 7 days not 5. I imagine some people are only available on maybe one or two days out of the week. In fairness to them, a full week period should be given. I am not to worried about that because I figure most people who are going to be active only 2-3 days a week will not be running for delegate. It is just a thought.

The bolded above is exactly why I have it as 5 days. If someone can't commit to being on once every 5 days, then clearly that inactivity is a bar to them being an effective Delegate. And the region shouldn't encourage that.
