PBrunsel defeats Afleitch
by South Park Conservative

Thank Goodness!!!

[Peter]

I have started a vote tracker on the Wiki - tends to be very good because the layout allows you to track transfers quite easily and of course, anybody can edit.

I haven't bothered with further preferences yet. I'm hoping somebody else will.

Round I

NE Chairman RowanBrandon	16	(FallenMorgan, Hamilton, NiK, Ronnie, ajc0918, Smid, azmagic, cinyc, dead0man, RowanBrandon, MasterJedi, filliatre, JewishConservative, floridarepub, Libertas, A-Bob)
Senator Afleitch	7	(Xahar, Jas, Hashemite, Moderate, Swedish Cheese, Verily, Andrew)
Senator Marokai Blue	6	(Maxque, Ebowed, Flyers, opebo, Marokai Blue, Eraserhead)
Senator Fritz	5	(Sewer Socialist, Sensei, dc_united, Fritz, BRTD)
Senator Franzl	2	(HappyWarrior, Frodo)
Fmr. Governor AHDuke (write-in)	1	(Ben)
Fmr. Senator SPC	0	()
GM Purple State	0	()
Sewer Socialist	0	()

RowanBrandon and Afleitch are elected, and their votes are redistributed.

Xahar's effective first preference is for Sewer socialist, not afleitch

[Peter]

Quota is 10 at that level isn't it?

Though, yes, I agree that the 5th spot is SPC v. Franzl. That could get very close, and there is a possibility that afleitch could get dragged in to it as well if DA friendly voters start flocking to Franzl disproportionately.

[Peter]

I've gotten about fifty thousand private messages asking me to vote in this. So I'm going to pretend it's very important, and line up like a good little sheep and vote according to the order I got the messages.

Here we go:

1. Afleitch
2. Fritz/Marokai Blue (tied)
3. Franzl

Now stop messaging me, numbnuts. If you dislike the position I put you in, you ought to have messaged me earlier.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. This may become especially irritating if afleitch's votes need to be redistributed.

[Peter]

To borrow from Henry Kissinger, forum politics is so vicious because the stakes are so small.

Interestingly I can now see scenarios in which Marokai or Fritz may not be elected.
