I really don't know why MJ hates me so fiercely.  My arrogance??  Wha..?

Like I said earlier, I did nothing to deserve his hatred.  Maybe you're right, Earl- he hates me because I'm gay.

You're a gay?  Damn, And it's too late to change my vote.

Wow, didn't knew my running mate is a gay

You're kidding me, right?  You didn't know?

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Speaking of arrogance, I do beleive I am on the verge of stealing you title of longest continuous Senate service. Atleast I think you hold that distinction.

Gabu was a Senator for 561 days. MasterJedi was only a Senator for 549 days.

You will beat them both if you complete your fifth term, with 609 days, serving a complete ten Senates in a row.

As for non-continuous, Bacon King is still well ahead of you, having served in about 13 Senates, and already elected to #14. Afleitch has been in 11.

Its not important really. I only mention it because, "someone" made such an issue of it when I decided to run again.

Why did SPC do so bad, did I miss some kind of scandal?

I ran a superbly strong campaign for one. We had a good race, and he got in late at a time when most of the Populares had already endorsed me. I think that despite the heated arguements over my record and the interpretation of it, I think we remained above any really personal attacks (Dishonesty, stupidy, Aqua Budda, etc) and I am glad that we managed to not damage our personal friendship over the race. I hope he changes his mind about leaving Atlasia. Love him our hate him, he is a passionate voice for what he beleives and Atlasian needs more passion not less.

JCP has plenty of gays.

I want to say that at one point last year the entire JCP Senate delegation was gay. (Just checked. I was correct. At least in the 32nd Senate, all JCP Senators were gay.)

Well that's gay...

I had no idea.

[MASHED POTATOES. VOTE!]

That was very funny.

SPC getting no votes beside his own, and them immediatelly: "can I deregister permanently"?

Why don't you just go ahead and write mailing lists while you're at it, at this point.

So are straight people even allowed in the JCP?...or perhaps a better name would be the Gay Old Party?

I think I'll refer to the JCP from now on as the GOP.

[Teddy (IDS Legislator)]

There have been concerns raised about Alcon's vote. While it has been noted in this thread that generally, a vote for the presidential candidate is considered a vote for that ticket, he has put "Write-In" before Fritz.

This is a complex issue that will require me to look though the laws. For now it will stand.

If anyone has legal advice one way or another feel free to post it here.

Just because we dont allow straight people does not mean we are all gay.

I would say that writing in a candidate who is already running on a party ticket means that one wishes to vote for the candidate, but refuses to vote for the party.  The more concerning issue, IMO, is if no choice for Vice President is indicated.

[Teddy (IDS Legislator)]

I've taken a few moments to think. This is what I've come to.


Marking "Fritz" on your ballot means a clear vote for the Fritz/Kalwejt team
Marking "Write In: Fritz/Kalwejt" would be odd and awkward but could be counted towards the Fritz/Kalwejt team as the voter has clearly specified his intent.

However. Making "Write In:" anything implies that the voter is NOT voting for any registered ticket. If the voter was, they could mark in a number or an X beside the proper name. The simple fact that it says "Write In:" implies that the intent of the voter is to not vote for any official ticket.

Therefore, I read this as being a vote for Fritz as President but no one as Vice President.  I've therefore taken Alcon off the list for now, but will continue to review this and think about this. A note as well that a ticket needs to win, so even if Fritz/Kalwejt + Fritz/Nobody > Andrew/Duke, so long as Andrew/Duke > Fritz/Kalwejt, the former wins.

[Teddy (IDS Legislator)]

     I haven't actually looked at the vote in question, but I believe election law is quite clear that a vote for the Presidential candidate on a declared ticket is to be interpreted as a vote for that ticket. I can look it up if anyone wants.

I will attempt to do this right now. If anyone else has ideas feel free to post here.

[tpfkaw]

But if someone only votes for one candidate, and doesn't indicate if they are voting for that candidate for President or for Vice President, it's an ambiguous vote, since we don't know which of those two offices the vote is for.

That is also true.

All voters who have yet to vote have now been contacted via PM.

https://uselectionatlas.org/AFEWIKI/index.php/Forum_Affairs_Law
"If a voter turns in a ballot for a presidential election with only one name listed, and if there is only one ticket that contains that person as the presidential candidate, that ballot must be counted towards the total for that ticket."

https://uselectionatlas.org/AFEWIKI/index.php/Consolidated_Electoral_System_Reform_Act
"Where a voter lists only the Presidenitial candidate of a ticket in a Presidential election and this is the sole occurrence of the Presidential candidate on the ballot, then the vote shall be construed to be for the ticket which the Presidential candidate is a member of."


Write In or not, the law is clear. Alcon's name has been re-added.

[Teddy (IDS Legislator)]

I do note that some of the above laws may be out of date, but, even if no "active" law exists about a situation, it if my belief that precedent would stand, and that precedent, would thus be shaped by "old law".
