In fact there are two "Landamann": a so-called "Regierender Landaman" (acting Landamann) and a "Stillstehender Landamann" (vice Landamann). The terms are for two years and will switch between them after the two year, but they have to be confirmed every year by the voters. In particular the "Regierender Landaman" has to be confirmed by the voters by actually voting. This actually leaves the voters with the possibility to drop any member of the government during the "Landsgemeinde" and select someone else.
