I may move in if they can't get the air conditioning working in mine.
More seriously, I love the calendar and candidate list. As a reward for your hard work, I will probably get the Presidential DoFA Reform Committee going soon to keep you busy. ;) Great work though. Title: Re: Department of Federal Elections Post by: Associate Justice PiT on July 13, 2010, 03:33:45 AM I must agree with the President -- the calendar & candidate list are both immensely helpful. Best of luck in your new position! :)

Title: Re: Department of Federal Elections Post by: Teddy (IDS Legislator) on July 13, 2010, 09:45:55 PM Also colour coding by party would be pretty
Title: Re: Department of Federal Elections Post by: Barnes on July 13, 2010, 10:12:14 PM One more thing, you should probably swear in as SoFE. ;)
Title: Re: Department of Federal Elections Post by: Fmr. Pres. Duke on July 13, 2010, 11:17:08 PM I just found this, and I'm surprised no one thought of this earlier. I can't remember how many times I've asked when x deadline is for x election.
Title: Re: Department of Federal Elections Post by: bgwah on July 13, 2010, 11:20:09 PM I will be running for President in February 2014.
Title: Re: Department of Federal Elections Post by: Purple State on July 13, 2010, 11:48:20 PM I will be running for President in February 2014. Bring it on. :P Title: Re: Department of Federal Elections Post by: Teddy (IDS Legislator) on July 13, 2010, 11:49:35 PM I will be running for President in February 2014. The Secretary will correct me if I'm wrong, but we are not accepting any registrations for elections that are not in the next cycle. IE you can register to run in the next prez election, but not the one after it or any after that. Title: Re: Department of Federal Elections Post by: Antonio the Sixth on July 14, 2010, 01:42:23 PM Wow, finally someone who gives precise informations about electoral calendar and candidates ! :D Great. :)
Title: Re: Department of Federal Elections Post by: Teddy (IDS Legislator) on July 20, 2010, 10:04:43 PM Is there a schedule for regional elections? I can add it to my third post.
Title: Re: Department of Federal Elections Post by: California8429 on August 09, 2010, 10:26:24 PM Update the candidates please :)
Title: Re: Department of Federal Elections Post by: Teddy (IDS Legislator) on August 11, 2010, 06:49:24 AM Just a quick note as #2; I am still busy, but one message to me is all it will take for me to literally drop everything and focus on the game if it comes down to an emergency situation (IE I have to do the counts)

Title: Re: Department of Federal Elections Post by: Purple State on August 17, 2010, 10:21:14 PM I'm not sure this is the right thread or not, but I need an absentee ballot ASAP please. I would also make sure to PM Meeker and Teddy to make sure you get one. Title: Re: Department of Federal Elections Post by: Teddy (IDS Legislator) on August 17, 2010, 10:55:59 PM I have not heard from Meeker in a little bit so I will post all the absentee stuff shortly.

I rushed this up >.< so its not the prettiest thing in the world; but it is functional and there. Title: Re: Department of Federal Elections Post by: Meeker on August 18, 2010, 06:02:18 PM I delegate all the duties of the upcoming elections to Teddy. I've been busy working on a Congressional campaign that had our primary last night and now I need to pack to go back to school. Starting Saturday I'll be working at a summer camp and probably won't have Internet access for a week.
The timing of this election has been really unfortunate for me but I hope people know that, as was shown in the first few days of my time in office, I am committed to doing this job if I'm physically able to do it - something which I'm quite frankly not able to do right now. Title: Re: Department of Federal Elections Post by: Teddy (IDS Legislator) on August 18, 2010, 06:43:06 PM I will not let you down!
Title: Re: Department of Federal Elections Post by: Teddy (IDS Legislator) on August 18, 2010, 07:02:18 PM https://uselectionatlas.org/FORUM/index.php?topic=122757.0
The booth becomes unlocked at the proper time. In other words, in 4 hours. Title: Re: Department of Federal Elections Post by: Barnes on August 18, 2010, 07:04:54 PM Very nice ballot, Teddy! ;)
Title: Re: Department of Federal Elections Post by: Teddy (IDS Legislator) on August 19, 2010, 02:56:30 AM Oops, er, someone may or may not have fallen asleep. Either way, the booth is open.
Title: Re: Department of Federal Elections Post by: California8429 on August 19, 2010, 11:12:10 AM Thanks for the voting booth Teddy. What would we do without you today?slash last night?
Title: Re: Department of Federal Elections Post by: Teddy (IDS Legislator) on August 19, 2010, 05:53:05 PM Thanks for the voting booth Teddy. What would we do without you today?slash last night? Title: Re: Department of Federal Elections Post by: Teddy (IDS Legislator) on August 21, 2010, 09:43:55 PM See this https://uselectionatlas.org/FORUM/index.php?topic=122913.0 regarding the closing time of the voting booth.
I apologize for any confusion. Title: Re: Department of Federal Elections Post by: Teddy (IDS Legislator) on August 22, 2010, 05:45:35 AM Counting will officially begin after midnight (17 hours from now or so) however I expect to have an official "primary vote total" up before that.
As with the last time I counted midterms, I will be doing the rough election data (IE the counts themselves) on a side forum - In this case, a hidden forum of a forum I administer. I've given access to view this hidden forum to the President, as well as certain others. If you wish to also gain access, please contact me via PM. Any candidate, Senator, or Cabinet member asking will receive; others will be judged by another standard based on how many others have requested access.

Title: Re: Department of Federal Elections Post by: Teddy (IDS Legislator) on August 22, 2010, 09:15:08 PM Ballots of note:
[1] Write-in: Jas [2] Write-in: Lewis Trondheim [3] Write-in: Al [4] Write-in: ilikeverin [5] Kalwejt [6] Badger [7] Bacon King [8] A-Bob [9] AHDuke99 [10] AndrewCT [11] NOTA [12] Libertas The Constitution implies that none of the above must either be the first option, or, not used at all. While it implies this, it is not 100% clear, to me anyway, of what to do in this sort of situation. Tradition has been that the ballot ends at NOTA and therefore, this is how I will read this, but there may be a case to be made if there were to be a tie and the candidate(s) ranked below NOTA would win the tiebreaker with the above rank, but would lose it without. 1) Duke 2) AndrewCT 3) A-BOB 4) Bacon I feel the intent is clear that in the #4 slot the voter intended to vote for Bacon King, and not a strip of Bacon. This is how I've counted it. Title: Re: Department of Federal Elections Post by: Teddy (IDS Legislator) on August 22, 2010, 10:58:28 PM https://uselectionatlas.org/FORUM/index.php?topic=122965.0
I, using my powers as the Deputy Secretary of Federal Elections, do certify that...

Title: Re: Department of Federal Elections Post by: ilikeverin on August 23, 2010, 12:07:52 AM [1] Write-in: Jas [2] Write-in: Lewis Trondheim [3] Write-in: Al [4] Write-in: ilikeverin [5] Kalwejt [6] Badger [7] Bacon King [8] A-Bob [9] AHDuke99 [10] AndrewCT [11] NOTA [12] Libertas The Constitution implies that none of the above must either be the first option, or, not used at all.

That is, indeed, the precedent. Essentially, if my vote actually went down that far, you'd treat my ballot equivalent to as if I had spoiled it. |
