Populares Convention

I nominate Yelnoc.

Thankyou.  I guess I'll nominate me too.

So what exactly does the chairman of the convention do?

[Yelnoc]

Let's not get hung up on who the chair is.

[Yelnoc]

I highly doubt any of those guys are Hamilton. At any rate, I know for sure that Yelnoc and Zacoftheaxes are real. I don't post on www.alternatehistory.com, but I sometimes look at the discussions there, and I have seen both zacoftheaxes and Yelnoc post there. Both seem to be legitimate posters who contribute there. I really doubt that Hamilton trolls on AH.com.

Thankyou, I was just about to point out that I am myself.  Now who is Hamilton?

[Yelnoc]

The "Introduction to Atlas Fantasy Elections" says that there are 35 members of the POP....

[Yelnoc]

Now we're on to something.

Can I get an explanation as to why you feel these posters are Hamilton?

Because they're new posters who almost immediately came to Atlasia and joined the Populares, while already knowing quite a bit about how things work. That's Hamilton's MO.

If these guys are on other sites, fine, but it's certainly not outside the bounds of reason to assume that new members are Hamilton. He's had tons of socks and used them in Atlasia. He still posts under several socks. It's not like I'm going out on a limb here.

I registered back in March.

That's great.  Now what?

[Yelnoc]

Vote is over
Hantheguitarman is the Convention chairman

I only got 1 vote, and that was from myself! Darn it....

Same here, though I can't say I actually expected to win.

[Yelnoc]

Fusion Voting [Aye]
Not Our Candidate [Aye]

[Yelnoc]

Do we have a list of incumbents for those positions?

[Yelnoc]

So, just for clarification, these are the people that have declared their candidacy or have been nominated for a position.

Chairman
Jbrase

Vice-Chairman
Hantheguitarman

Whip
Libertas
Feeblepizza

Secretary
NiK [Nominated]

Chief Director
SvenssonRS

If incumbents automatically appear on the ballot then the list becomes the following.

Chairman
Jbrase

Vice-Chairman
Hantheguitarman

Whip
Libertas
Feeblepizza

Secretary
RosettaStoned
NiK [Nominated]

Chief Director
redcommander
SvenssonRS

[Yelnoc]

Just for the record, Yelnoc, Libertas announced that he's running for election again, if I'm not mistaken.

Fixed.

I really like Ameriplan's second logo and green seems like a good, populist color.

I guess I represent the non-libertarian wing (is there one?) when I say I'm not into the whole yellow thing.

[Yelnoc]

Ameriplan is not even in this party...

But I still like his logos....

[Yelnoc]

I guess I represent the non-libertarian wing (is there one?)

There most certainly is.

Anywho, upon latter reflection, I won't be supporting a color change unless it has border-line unamimous support/desire in the party.

We ought to set a poll, assuming this site allows you to post one where you can see the names of people who voted to so that we can filter out any non-populares.

[Yelnoc]

Note, I don't know a lot of these people, so most of the following numbers are meaningless.
