H. E. A. R. T. - Tracking the December 2011 Senate Election

[Teddy (IDS Legislator)]

I've always thought the idea of overlapping districts was fun. I'll make a map to show you what I mean

[ilikeverin]

But, when an at-large election is competitive it at least nationalizes the competition.

Hey, you're taking my line

[Fmr. Emperor PiT]

     If we were to go back to districts, I would definitely support gerrymandering them to be competitive. Too bad they would only be done once a year, so things can change in that department.

[Teddy (IDS Legislator)]

overlapping districts






Each of these would be independent districts. The fact that two of them match the regions is coincidence.

[Jayhawker]

Looks like this will be a strong election for the RPP unless something dramatic happens - looks like I'll have to do some voter intimidation to make sure things don't change.

[Teddy (IDS Legislator)]

What an incredibly dull election.

[President Marokai]

What an incredibly dull election.

Three cheers for the party system!

Hip Hip!-



..Anyone?

[Fmr. Emperor PiT]

     I'm sort of surprised that the JCP didn't make a serious effort to elect Sewer.

[Teddy (IDS Legislator)]

If someone would be so kind as to look at the above, and if I have an error, point it out. I'm very tired but can not sleep, so I may have put someone in the wrong place.

Next I will audit the first ballot, then return to this

[ZuWo]

    I'm sort of surprised that the JCP didn't make a serious effort to elect Sewer.

I'm positively surprised. Most RPP and JCP voters have been surprisingly bi-partisan with their ballots. This time around, most voters considered the candidates' quality more important than in previous elections. There was no sudden write-in campaign just for the sake of retaining a seat. Instead, those candidates who campaigned in an active way were rewarded.

I can still finish putting states on all the posters if you wish (I can begin shortly) so that you can make summore of them perddy maps of yers

[Cincinnatus]

Several Points.  (1) It's important to remember however has the most votes, is Lt. Governor (which is a Rep now).  (2)  Dallasfan decided against accepting votes, so he won't be elected (unfortunately ).

[Governor Scott]

I thought that Andrew was going to remain Lt. Governor until February.

We're running this election under the new constitution, so I would assume Andrew would no longer be Lt. Governor.

I thought we decided he would continue a full term regardless.

[Big DaddyTX]

I'm all confused inside now.

[Big DaddyTX]

So, have we figured out when I'm out of a job yet?

I don't know how cutting your term short could be legally justified.
