Congratulations of becoming the Speaker

Thanks Lt. Governor!

[Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey]

My fellow Northeasterners,

I am announcing my candidacy for Governor of the Northeast in the October Gubernatorial Election.

I promise to work hard to better your lives in the Northeast. As one of your Representatives, I have worked to help pass legislation that ensures that our brighter days are ahead. In the Northeast Assembly, I've ayed legislation that saves taxpayer money, makes healthcare more affordable for all Northeasterners, protects animals, combats HIV/AIDS, etc.

As Governor, I will work with the Assembly to drive the 12% unemployment down. As Governor, I will reach across the aisle to find common-sense solutions that all parties in the Northeast can agree on. As Governor, I will listen to all ideas from any party, and you will be free to give suggestions in my office. As Governor, I will work hard to ensure that your liberty will pass down to future generations. As Governor, I will never forget to open the voting booth for Assembly elections.

Thank you for listening. Dave bless you, Dave bless Atlasia, and Dave bless the Northeast.

You'd make a fine Governor. Good luck!

You already know this, but I whole-heartedly endorse your candidacy.

Endorsed

Thanks guys!

[Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey]

Endorsed.

The election is in October, right?

Endorsed!

Endorsed SO hard.

Thanks guys!

To answer your question Morgan, yes, the election is in October.

[Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey]

IF I lived if your region I would vote for Hand as governor

(PNTTID)

Thank you!

[Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey]

With the October Elections approaching us fast, I thought I might expand my platform so that Northeast voters will know what they're voting for.

• As Governor, I will push for a Balanced Budget Amendment to the Northeast Constitution. The Northeast Assembly has already ratified the Balanced Budget Amendment, but it still needs to be placed to a vote, and I will do so if Governor Brandon fails to do so before the Elections.
• As Governor, I will push a Constitutional Amendment limiting the members of the Northeast Assembly to 6
• As Governor, I will work with the Northeast Assembly to produce legislation that all of us can agree would be beneficial to the Northeast. I'd like to spur more activity in the region, and hopefully bring more citizens into the folds of the Northeast.
• As Governor, I will follow the strict letter of the law, especially in elections. You can count on me to open up and close the ballot at the correct time.
• As Governor, I will push to institute a quarterly, or a six month budget.
• As Governor, I will push for a Constitutional Amendment eliminating the need for a quorum in a Constitutional Amendment.

This is off topic, but Mr. Speaker...What the Hell is up with the Assembly?

To the best of my knowledge, the September results were never properly ratified by the CJO. I posted a thread about this a while back BTW: https://uselectionatlas.org/FORUM/index.php?topic=124400.0

[Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey]

Endorsed.

A cross-regional, cross-party endorsement. I thought I had already done this, guess not.

Thanks for your support!

[Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey]

ATTENTION NORTHEAST CITIZENS

The Voting Booth is officially open, despite controversy over the matter: https://uselectionatlas.org/FORUM/index.php?topic=126646

I encourage everybody to vote! And remember to vote me for Governor!

[Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey]

You have my warmest, possibly very meaningless, endorsement.

From my reading of what you've done, even thought we might come from different sides of the political spectrum, you have my full endorsement and support.

Thanks guys! I'm honored to receive support from the left as well as the right!

[Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey]

Has Fezzy consented to the write-in for Lt Governor?

Ima PM him about it right now!

[Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey]

Citizens of the Northeast,

I am honored to have been elected by you with a resounding mandate. I know full well the responsibilities that await me, and I will work hard to make the Northeast the shining city on a hill that we've all dreamed of. Starting from today, the work begins now. I will listen to all sides of the political spectrum, for we are all Atlasians. I am aiming to bring unity, activity, and prosperity to the Northeast, and we start today.

Let's make the Northeast great again.

Sincerely,

Governor Han

[Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey]

Mr. Governor,

There is currently a vacancy in the NE regional Senate seat until Friday the 5th of November, due to the early resignation of Senator Dallasfan65. As such you have the ability to appoint a temporary replacement to serve as Senator until the beginning of the next Senate, when Eraserhead shall be seated.


Sincerely
NC Yankee,
PPT

Senator Yankee,

Thank you for reminding me. Senator-Elect Eraserhead does not wish to take early appointment to the Senate. He will swear in when his first term officially begins. Thus, I am screening Northeastern candidates to serve as a caretaker for the next week. I hope to select an appointment soon.

Best Regards,
Governor Han

[Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey]

ANNOUNCEMENT

It is my pleasure to announce my appointment of Bullmoose88 to the Senate. I know that he will serve the Northeast and Atlasia well for the rest of Dallasfan65's term.

Sincerely,
Governor Han

[Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey]

ANNOUNCEMENT:


It is with great pride and joy that I hand over the gavel to my great friend and Atlasian mentor Dallasfan65. I know that he will do an amazing job as Northeast Speaker, and he will be a great ally in making the Northeast great again.

Governor.

If I'm not mistaken, three votes have passed, and (I believe) four Representatives whom were elected did not take their seats - you will have to hold a special election.

Goddamnit, I was sure it was four votes. Okay, the special election will be held next Friday.

Governor, you declared this amendment to have failed ratification in the Northeast despite it having passed 7-4, supposedly due to "less than half of Northeasterners voting".

The Northeast Regional Constitution does not overrule the Atlasian Constitution. There is no turnout requirement for federal constitutional amendments. It merely requires a simple majority of voters to pass.

You seem to have misinterpreted the meaning of the Constitution in a way lacking precedent. The original Intra-Regional Mobility Amendment was ratified in the Northeast with a total of just 10 voters.

You must be logged in to read this quote.

Oh, I thought there was a turnout requirement for citizens voting, because the Constitution said (as you pointed out): " which shall be valid to all intents and purposes as part of this Constitution when ratified by a majority of the People voting in public polls in three-quarters of the Region"

It seems though, that precedent is not on my side, and I do not wish to engage in a lengthy legal battle. I will change the outcome to go along with precedent.

There will be a special election for three seats in the Northeast Assembly on Friday December 3rd. If you wish to run, you have until Friday morning to declare your candidacy. I haven't found any specific protocol for special elections in the Northeast and I think these rules are fair.

I, as Governor of the Northeast, hereby sign The Nullification Resolution.

Governor Han

I simply do not believe that hurrdurr should be added to the end of the Northeast motto.
