It is highly inappropriate for the Chief Electoral Officer to give a preference on whether to hold a by election or general election. @ElectionsNB role is to implement elections and offer advice on their administration. She is wading into the political arena. #nbpoli https://twitter.com/poitrasCBC/status/1290778089019113477">https://twitter.com/poitrasCB...
The Chief Electoral Officer has no say in whether a Premier should request dissolution by the LG. Constitutionally, they are also indicating it would be inadvisable for the Assembly to withdraw confidence & force an election which is interference.
@ElectionsNB cannot reference the constitutional right for an individual to vote on one hand and on the other inject themselves in a political debate on whether to hold a general election. It ignores Responsible Government. They are a Legislative Officer not a political actor.
