1. Tyrion
2. TNF
1) Tyrion
However, if this ends up as a tie, I'll switch my vote to Yankee to keep the Senate from being held up endlessly.
Translation: I'm actually voting for Yankee
No, what I mean is that it wouldn't be right to endlessly hold up having a PPT. Senator Tyrion did the same thing last time. If I was voting for Senator Yankee, I would've just voted for him rather than nominating Senator Tyrion (whom I also supported last time for PPT). I don't see any good reason to endlessly delay this unless there is a real reason to think one of the Yankee voters might switch. I can't imagine any Federalists doing so, Senator Lumine nominated him, and I doubt Senator Shua will change his vote. Given that, an endless deadlock seems kinda unjustifiable.
Endless deadlock? I think you're looking for the word tie- something that can be broken.
And by the Vice President, no less, who seems to be in an active mood, given that he started a final vote on one of my pieces of legislation before one was called for!
I seem to have been misinformed, someone once told me the VP can't break PPT ties for some reason. If he can then I won't switch my vote, my bad.
Not an endless deadlock, but the Senate would be stalled for seven day (I believe) before the VP could break the tie.
