We're gonna need a primary date for the Northern Senate race, folks.

We're gonna need a primary date for the Northern Senate race, folks.

By Laws (which I need to change still) say that it must happen at least 2 weeks before the vote- I've often in the past done it off my own hand.

I'm going to start a 48 hour campaigning period now when I get back from work so I have time to open a thread/do the other necessary stuff.

Under that plan voting would begin on Tuesday 9th

[Bleach Blonde Bad Built Butch Bodies for Biden]

Assuming this is the thread to campaign in, I'll post my speech here.

*ahem*

Friends and fellow Laborites, and particularly those of the Northern Region, the other week I announced my candidacy to be your senator because I was concerned that our region was lacking a voice in our government.  I respect Senator Smith and have supported him in the past, but I feel it is essential that our party nominates a candidate who can be a full-time legislator and a reliable advocate for progressive values.

We must protect the woman's right to choose.  As a private citizen, I have advocated against the abortion restrictions bill currently on the floor of the House.  In the coming weeks, the House will deliberate on another bill that strips Planned Parenthood, a nonprofit organization serving millions of Atlasians each year, of all federal funding.  This is not something we as progressives can accept for our country.  This radical anti-choice agenda must be challenged head-on.

Healthcare is a fundamental human right.  Once again, I have used my influence as a private citizen to push for comprehensive, universal reform with Senator Blair and others that will expand coverage while simultaneously reducing costs.  I have written an outline of the kind of reform I would pursue as a member of Congress, and it will be one of my top priorities as your senator.

For the sake of brevity, I will close my speech in asking my fellow Laborites to continue to spread our message in each level of government, from city councils to congressional seats and beyond.  I hope to receive the blessing of my countrymen in the North to join Senator Blair in advocating for poor and middle-class families in the Atlasian Senate.

Thank you.

Candidates have 48 hours to campaign.

Dear Labor people,

We have to inform you, most regretfully, that all soda machines within your main headquarters were disabled by unknown vandals.

Have a nice day

When are we having our next convention; I'm interested to make a couple of proposals, in terms of by-law changes, at this.

It should be one month from the start of the next Presidential election.

It should be one month from the start of the next Presidential election.

In that case, it should be very soon.

[Blair]

I'm happy to open it today

I don't mean to sound impatient, but will we be getting a replacement for Clyde soon?

Yes- we've had a couple of curve balls thrown at us in party HQ in the last couple of days but we're vetting a list of people
