As the bill establishing this position reads:

• The position of Speaker of the Senate will be created to coordinate Senatorial proceedings, post Senatorial updates on our subreddit, and keep track of votes. The Speaker will be a Senator elected by majority vote of the Senate, and will keep their duties as Senator in addition to their new duties as Speaker. A speaker will be elected every two months.

Now candidates must announce their intent to run for this position. It is a prestigious position and one of the highest ranking positions available in Varkonia. This is something to tell your family about.

There will be 24 hours to declare candidacy. Only current senators may run for this position. Following the 24 hours there will be a voting thread posted on the subreddit which will be up for another 24 hours, unless the candidate is unopposed, in which case they automatically become speaker. The person with the most votes will win. If there is a tie, Varkanos, the King, will select the winner.
