Shortening it would probably work if shortened to cause the elections to
happen early November or thereabouts.  That or the whole nomination
process needs to begin in January.  Unless we decide to have them in the
middle of the year which would mean either a really short term or a
really long one.

I guess really short if we don't like the leader and really long if we
do?  hehe  No, barring anything serious, I suspect the end/beginning of
the year is about when the elections are going to have to happen.
