Türkisblau for Governor: Please Vote!

Türkisblau for Governor HQ

Pacificans, I have spent my entire political career in Atlasia serving you. When I first arrived on this continent, I became a Pacific Councilor and worked my way all the way up to serving as your Regional Senator.

I have returned to this region I love so dearly to save it from the anarchy of rogue terrorist and former Governor Simfan34. This region can not handle such injustices any longer. We must come together into a political movement that says "No!" to nonsensical anarchy such as the Simfan34 administration. As Governor, I will listen and work with the Council and remain regular order until the merging with the Midwest.

I understand that I have had my differences with many, but I hope to put that behind us as we forge ahead in a campaign that can bring stability back to our troubled region! Thank you for hearing me out and I hope to get your vote on the 6th!

I've spoken with Turkblasiu and I have decided to endorse him.

Thank you, Classic. This is truly a movement that I believe all Pacificans can get behind and I am glad that you're joining me. If elected, I will work hard with you and the rest of our councilors to make sure nothing like this ever happens again.

Understanding how swift the campaign will be given the very limited time, do you have any plans to release some sort of platform?

Yes, I will release a plan for my (possibly) short tenure as Governor in the coming days. I am trying to set my campaign themes at the present moment.

Turkisblau is the ONLY candidate who can fix the Pacific, and is a great guy. He has my FULL support.

Thank you, Senator!

Endorsed, of course.

Good to have your support tmth!

Endorsed.

Thank you for the endorsement, Hom-car

Thank you for the thought-provoking post Simfan, however I believe that I know most of that perfectly well from holding up activity with you for a number of months when I served as Speaker!

I recognize the difficulty that fostering activity in the Pacific brings - but I would just like to point out that there were many things that you didn't do to keep up activity and run the council. Remember when I PMed you 3 times to open up a new session for the legislature, only to be forced to open a court case against you to force you to begin a new council session?

Remember when you refused to appoint a new councilor when there was a vacancy, only to appoint Spamage when there were 3 days left and then wrongly declared Spamage the winner in the council election, causing controversy and embarassing the region?

The entire Ebowed taking power thing only happened because you had been inactive for ages and refused to start new council elections! This is only a small subset of the mistakes you made.

Yes, the Pacific is hard to get going but you made so many missteps as Governor that I just wouldn't make. With a more steady hand, the Pacific can reach a minimum level of activity up until the merging with the Midwest. Don't get me wrong, I'm not promising a Pacific Renaissance here, only a return to regular order until consolidation with the Midwest occurs.

Re eligibility to be Governor, the time period is 7 days and I registered on the 26th and the elections are on the November 6th so all is good

Endorsed!

Thank you for the endorsement, Councilor!

Despite a number of ideological differences that we have, I believe that Türkisblau is the right choice for the Pacific. Endorsed!

It means a lot Pingvin. Can't wait to see what you got cooking down in the South.

Pacificans, I am here to tell you that our long regional nightmare is over: Simfan has left office! He has kept his stranglehold on the office of Governor for far too long. Now is a time for us as a region to come together and heal after the damage he has caused.

If elected, I promise to immediately disband the Executive Council of the Special Anti-terrorism Operations Command and prosecute those complicit in its activities in the Pacific region. Owing to Simfan's lack of deregistration, I will immediately make him our region's #1 Most Wanted Criminal and put all resources into his capture, as well as petition the incoming Adam Griffin administration to bring Simfan to justice!

Now, another subject I would like to speak about is consolidation. The Pacific has, for a very long time, kept a very different culture and customs compared to the greater Atlasian nation. With the Constitutional Convention almost certainly consolidating our region with the Midwest, we will need to work out a plan for each region to maintain some of it's identity post-consolidation. I will work with Governor Tmthforu94 on a new regional constitution that protects the Pacific's identity as well as the Midwest's.

Another aspect that we mustn't forget about the period leading up to consolidation is that its length is uncertain. Due to this, as a region, we can not spare to put off the hard work of real governance. I will use my lengthy experience as Pacific Councilor, Speaker, and Regional Senator, to enact laws that preserve the tradition of the Pacific and her people, save the land that we call home, safeguard life at all stages, and support the working class of the Pacific. This includes reviving past initiatives of mine in the Council including the repeal of the Accountability for the Merchants of Death Act and the Restore Our Rivers Act. Additionally, the Pacific Council will be brought back to regular order; I will guide the Speaker and other council members along in the legislative process that appears to have become disjointed, confused, and sluggish.

So I ask sincerely for you to join me in bringing competence, transparency, and law and order back to our region that needs it so dearly!

Türkisblau casting his ballot

Political participation is the key to our democracy, and if we, as a region, do not consistently go out to the polls then what is our democracy worth!

Although I am happy to see that this Special Gubernatorial Election without much competition has already exceeded the turnout of the most recent council election, we are still not even close to getting every Pacifican out to the polls. The election ends tomorrow, so there is plenty of time left to vote and no excuse not to exercise that right.
