No member of the general assembly or delegate in Congress, shall be chosen a member of the council. The president and vice-president shall be chosen annually by the joint ballot of the general assembly and council, of the members of the council. Any person having served as a councillor for three successive years, shall be incapable of holding that office for four years afterwards. Every member of the council shall be a justice of the peace for the whole commonwealth, by virtue of his office. In case new additional counties shall hereafter be erected in this state, such county or counties shall elect a councillor, and such county or counties shall be annexed to the next neighboring counties, and shall take rotation with such counties. The council shall meet annually, at the same time and place with the general assembly. The treasurer of the state, trustees of the loan-office, naval officers, collectors of customs or excise, judge of the admiralty, attornies-general, sheriffs and prothonotaries, shall not be capable of a seat in the general assembly, executive council, or continental congress.

CONSTITUCIÓN DE PENNSYLVANIA 1776 elegirán de igual manera una persona por cada condado para que sirvan como concejales durante un año y ninguno más. Y al finalizar el tiempo para el que cada concejal fuera elegido para servir, los freemen de la ciudad de Filadelfia y de todos los condados de este estado elegirán una persona para servir como concejal durante tres años y ninguno más, y así [se hará] cada tres años en lo sucesivo. Mediante esta forma de elección y rotación continua se adiestrarán más hombres en los negocios públicos, cada año habrá en el Consejo personas familiarizadas con los procedimientos de años anteriores, con lo que los asuntos se tramitarán más consistentemente, y se prevendrá mejor el riesgo de que se establezca una inconveniente aristocracia. Todas las vacantes del Consejo que se produzcan por fallecimiento, renuncia u otra causa se cubrirán en la siguiente elección general a menos que el presidente y el Consejo fijen antes una elección particular para ese fin. Ningún miembro de la Asamblea General, ni delegado en el Congreso [Continental], será elegido miembro del Consejo. La Asamblea General y el Consejo elegirán anualmente de entre los miembros de éste último y mediante votación conjunta al presidente y al vicepresidente. Toda persona que haya servido como consejero durante tres años sucesivos no podrá ocupar dicho cargo durante los cuatro años siguientes. En virtud de su cargo, todo miembro del Consejo será juez de paz en toda la comunidad. En caso de que en el futuro se creen más condados en este estado, dichos condados elegirán cada uno un consejero, y tales condados serán anexionados a los condados vecinos y rotarán con ellos. El Consejo se reunirá anualmente al mismo tiempo y en el mismo lugar que la Asamblea General. El tesorero del Estado, los administradores de la oficina de préstamos, los oficiales de la armada, los agentes de aduanas o recaudadores de impuestos, el juez del almirantazgo, los fiscales generales, los sheriffs, y los oficiales de los juzgados no podrán pertenecer a la Asamblea General, al Consejo ejecutivo ni al Congreso Continental. Sec. 20. El presidente, y en su ausencia el vicepresidente, junto con el Consejo, del que constituirán quórum cinco de [sus miembros], tendrán la potestad de nombrar y dar posesión a jueces, oficiales de la armada, juez del almirantazgo, fiscal general y todos los otros cargos civiles y militares, excepto los que sean elegidos por la Asamblea General o [directamente] por el pueblo, de conformidad con esta forma de gobierno y las leyes que se puedan promulgar en adelante; y cubrirán todas las vacantes que se produzcan por fallecimiento, renuncia, destitución o descalificación en todos los cargos hasta que éstos se cubran en el momento y manera que determine la ley o esta Constitución. [El presidente y el Consejo] se comunicarán con los otros estados y tramitarán los negocios [de estado] con 161
