Does p have to be the same for each value of x?  Or does it just have to be the same up to x?  That is, can this be "I want three men to run for governor" in the sense of, say, needing to fill out a ballot.  They have to be this worldly, but my wishes don't involve their identities. ?

p is the proposition that satisfies "ci da zo'u ke'a du'u da co'e", so yes with singular "ci" it has to be the same proposition for each of three values of x, which doesn't make much sense.

Now with plural "ci" it would make sense again, since now it is, for some three men, the proposition that they run.
