As a courtesy to everyone, I've created this topic so everyone can post their thoughts on the Atlas Election. Given that I cluttered up the National Atlasian quite a bit last election, I figured this might be nice to have.

*waits to see if anyone will use the topic*

The 5th dentist has finally caved.  He's supporting Trident.  Now you can vote.

9 out of 10 dentists agree: the 10th dentist is a stupid contrarian jerk.

early returns show a slight lead for Lewis Trondheim, but Al is not too far behind and there is LOTS left to be counted. The district 5 Senate is dead tied, while district 3 is dead tied between Nym90 and Mike Naso. However much of these early returns in district 5 are from King's home area, while district 3's are largely from Naso's home area.

I was unaware of this, I'm afraid I dont read every bill the Senate debates(There are way too many of them).  How do we break ties?

the first District 4 returns show SamSpade with a lead in the Senate race. Meanwhile Lewis has pulled into a tie in the first round, but the race is still far too early to call.

I’m still trying to decide how to vote, which is why I’ve yet to cast my ballot.

Whatever you vote, make sure to vote with vigor and decisiveness.

At least one person needs to cast a ballot, and then delete it and post that their ballot exploded.

No, it needs to be someone in a non-close race. Or someone who votes for King Cheesy
