Lawsuit

[Marokai Backbeat]

I would enjoy letting the court know some information that PiT here conveniently leaves out. My vote does not appear in the Absentee booth.

I'd enjoy PiT providing us with a link showing my vote in the Absentee booth, because one doesn't exist. (You can see it in my profile posts, but it doesn't show up in the Absentee booth, so it could never be counted.) By the time I discovered that my vote had disappeared the Absentee booth had been closed. (So what was I supposed to do? Vote in a booth that had been closed? Don't be disingenuous, PiT)

Earl allowed me to vote again because it was either allow me to have my freakin' vote count, or disenfranchise me due to (proven) circumstances beyond my control. Earl chose to let a citizen have a vote, as I'm sure any sensible justice on this court would do.

PiT, these are clearly exceptional circumstances, I didn't just vote in both booths for the hell of it, and I'm sure the court will make an exception here because of that.

I ask you, what would you have had me do? If my vote disappeared in the Absentee Booth (as it did) what would you have done? Given the chance to go back in time I would, in your carefully constructed argument, have the options of, in your words, "Break the law" or not have my vote counted at all.

Marokai although we all feel for you and understand your point of view, as a wise senator here in Atlasia once said:

Well, voting twice is against the law.

It is, but I think we should PM him and ask why he voted twice.

Does it matter? He still voted twice.

Edit: I mean, yeah, I guess finding out why he did it would be nice, but is vote is still invalid regardless, the law being the law.

The law is the law, and voting twice is clearly against it.

Gustaf's defense was based on his word and his supposed ignorance of the law. My defense is a proven technical error and I had no choice but to vote elsewhere, or have my vote not count at all. Very different.

[Marokai Backbeat]

Forgive the interruption (and you won't ) but there is no proof of technical error other than Gustaf's word here. My vote was not visible in the thread, and if I hadn't voted a second time, someone would've been here challenging my vote on the basis it was not visible and therefore uncountable.

Thank you Justices.

Indeed. I much appreciate my vote actually counting.
