Two days (48 hours) after the completion of the nomination period, the voting period will open and continue for one week." This rule presupposes that voting can take place immediately after the nomination period, which is not possible with the current voting infrastructure being single-threaded. Since we are making an exception to this rule on the time of voting, perhaps this is a time to make an exception on the self-nomination period as well.
