I decided to poll on the special election easier to poll. You have two days.

I will support the RPP candidate, Brandon, who is a good person. I will be preferencing Franzl. I like Marokai and I believe he has a lot to contribute and I wish him well. Whoever wins, I will lament the loss of the other two to the Senate.

I suppose I'll be voting for myself, but I won't be crying if either of my opponents beats me.

I really wish Marokai would move to the Mideast and challenge HappyWarrior.  I'm pretty happy with the regional senators other than him and I certainly don't think I would be able to help him in a senate race trying to pull 2 or 3 of my candidates over the finish line.  So yeah, I encourage him to do that

We gave you an endorsement with the contingency that you would be pro-regions, and you did not live up to the expectations.

In your view.  I have been good on regions, I have not voted for anything that has gotten rid of regional senate seats but neither have I voted for anything that will give them power over the federal government.  I am neither a federalist nor a regionalist but I do protect the rights the regions already have.  Are you the Regions rights party or the regions overriding power party?

Regions having more power than the federal government is what regional rights is all about.  You abstained on the most important amendment, the creation of the Council of Governors.  Sure afterwards you voted yes, but it was too late at that point

A Council of Governors would have violated the 'one office' rule and been unconstitutional not to mention counterproductive for the regions and the system of checks and balances.

The amendment creating the CoG never reformed the "one office" rule. It would have also required reforming a number of regional constitutions. This of course would have led less pro-region groups to likely block the amendments, creating a problem of under representation. It just gets really messy.

That's how I interpreted it as well.
