Ladies and Gentlemen of the Forum,
It would seem that the general concept of elections has been endorsed by the majority, over the concept of elections and government. I presumed, perhaps incorrectly, that most here were interested in government due to the participation in the creation of a constitution. Now, however, it has become clear that members do not have, in general, such an interest.
I am not one who would find a constant stream of elections interesting. Hitherto I have been kept interested by the process of governance and the procedural intricacies, but, evidently, the same shall soon end. Therefore I am compelled to submit, effective noon tomorrow, my resignation from my posts as Leader of the Progressive Party and as a Senator. Furthermore, I shall cease my participation in the fantasy elections. I thank the Progressive Party for its hospitality and the Forum for its kindness.
I had a feeling this was coming when I saw the name change and also the removal of your avatar.
