Term 8 President Election

[civman2000]

Unless in the little time remaining in the election Arnelos or Aro gets 11 more than the other of them does there'll be a runoff.

ELECTIONS DEADLOCKED!
ARNELOS, ARO TIED WITH MINUTES LEFT!
[size=2]ANARCHY DESCENDS UPON THE STREETS OF APOLYTON![/b]
Thus, such sensationalism is allowed



Both are good, but Arnelos has already gotten a stay in the Presidential Mansion. I suggest that anyone left not voting votes for Aro.

(A runoff is inevitable, but Aro really should get a try at the office. )

This thing looks like it will turn into a run-off election, which is always fun to see.

All I ask is that it not end up as a tie. Those ties are troublesome. I'm going to begin chatting informally with the court to see what we think the tiebreaking method should be, if it comes to that.

Well with 11 votes for Aggie, as long as all of them vote for either Arnelos or Aro in the runoff and the other 19 voters for Arnelos and Aro stay the same, there won't be a tie.

This has certainly been among one of the most exciting Presidential elections in our history.

I swear upon it that regardless of outcome, as Term 8 SMC I shall coordinate and cooperate with either of these talented and gifted candidates to the utmost of my ability.

Meshelic : you didn't see hte breathtaking election of 2nd term President. A whole week of Anguish and competition for both candidates ! AN environment of mud-flinging between Timeline (DIA founder) and Trip (UFC founder) ! An epic tale of politics who left nobody unscathed

That's good to hear -- I'd hate to have things get messy and wind up without a PRESIDENT .

EDIT: Not that last time was the Court's fault -- but it'd be REALLY bad if we didn't have a President, whereas we can technically sorta notreally operate without a Domestic Minister (as long as we're willing to accept no general strategy and anarchy for a few turns, anyway...)

[Aro]

Ada, check your PM's...

This has been one of the coolest elections ever, (that's I'VE seen anyways).

I haven't seen a tied Presidential race, nor have I seen a runoff poll where each nominee has a running mate...
