The proposal would bring in four elected members before four incumbents leave. If it fails, only three seats stay active, two fewer than the committee’s current minimum, leaving committee-required actions unable to clear ratification.

A live CardanoScan reading on Aug. 25 showed support from delegated representatives, or DReps, at 41.7% against a 67% threshold.
