		In 1955, the General Assembly invited the Commission to give its opinion concerning a proposal to provide that a vacancy should be filled by the Assembly rather than the Commission in the light of the extension of the term of office of members from three to five years.

		The question arose as to whether the election of a staff member to the Commission would be incompatible with the staff rules and regulations that govern the activities and conduct of an international civil servant.

		While results varied, these pollsters generally found that Jonesers, compared with the other generations, were by far the most supportive of Bush, and that Joneser women were the primary “swing voters” among all generations of women.
		On election day, the overall results showed a virtual tie between the two parties, but again, it was Generation Jones that was largely responsible for the outcome; the two younger generations voted for Labour, the two older ones for National, with GenJones at a virtual tie between parties.
