Hey,

Couldn't we do make memberships in a way that they never expire on
elections time? like, if elections are in may, we don't allow any
membership to expire on may, (we move the expiration date to the first day
after elections or something like that?) Would be that possible, both from
technical way and in a way that does not break any rule?

Greetings

José
