- Comment: What is the intended topic of the article? It is it suppose to be the Congress, generally that would contain its history,strcuture, powers etc. Elections are generally covered in separate articles. I'll also post this question on the talk page so folks can respond. Thanks! S0091 (talk) 18:24, 9 April 2025 (UTC)
