I just wanted to say thank you to all Whig Party members. The election statistics that SoFE/RG homely compiled shows that 13 of 14 members of our party turned out to vote, and you all gave me and Jbrase your first preference. That's great.
In order to win elections in the future, we need exactly this kind of discipline.

The concern is, How do we as conservatives gain influance to shift the minds and hearts of Atlasians without giving up our conservative principals? We stay active and recruit fellow conservatives to join the site. I'm talking to a friend from church IRL about joining. The left has had a firm hold for a long time. If we want the ending of abortion, and an encouragement of true family values along with lower taxes, less regulation, and a strong yet noninterventionist foreign policy we should plan for the long term. Let's go and take our message to the regions. To Zuwo, I encourage that you run again and maybe we can bring our much needed paradigm shift to Atlasia.

Your ideas are good. However, I think that before we talk people we know into joining this forum and this game, we should simply try to contact conservatives on the Atlas forum - people who are already here. While this is a time-consuming effort, it pays out in the long term. Indeed, the current electorate is rather liberal, so one way we can increase our future chances without having to give up our ideals is to recruit more conservatives to the game.

To address your point about me running for President once again: I am honored, but we have many great guys in this party and I'd say I had my turn and next time it's up to someone else.

I don't oppose those efforts either. I was brought in by Tmfth on an old RPP drive last year. Would you consider running for governor of the Mideast?

I'm not ruling out anything. The ME Assembly is my core priority right now and I will fully dedicate my energy to my job as Assemblyman in the next time. But yes, I cannot deny that the office of ME Governor has a nice ring to it.

You MUST run for governor, in my humble opinion.

I hereby deem this convention closed.
