Michael MHK says it would make the process more democratic
Removing Legislative Council members' power to elect future Chief Ministers would make the process more democratic.
That's according to Michael MHK Alfred Cannan, who has gained support to introduce a Bill which would mean only members of the House of Keys can vote on the matter.
Currently both chambers of Tynwald have a say in the election process.
But Mr Cannan said allowing up to a third of the vote to come from publicly unelected members was undesirable:
