Defarge 10

[Akno21]

The Defarge-NYGOP race could decide the fate of the UAC...if we lose this, we lose most of our power in the government...

Well, you should know that we republicans are rooting for NYGOP. 

Obviously, you endorsed him and your party voted for him.

MANN Political Analysis
Hartford, CT
As the voting deadline draws near, a victory for Gov. PBrunsel seems inevitable. But it didn't have to be this way. If Sen. Hughento had gotten support from the left and not just the middle, he may have been in PBrunsel's position. However, the majority of second prefernces from Al's votes went to Sen. Harry. When asked about the issue, Hughento says "because Al is a social conservative and economic hard leftist; harry is a social liberal (but less then me) and an economic leftist, and I am a social liberal(further from Al then Harry) and an economic centrist." It is also probable that Harry's VP pick, leftist Sen. Akno21 appealed to the far left more than Gov. Htmldon, Hughento's selection. Says the Senator, "Don is a great bloke and he definently helped me pick up a huge amount of high prefernces from the UAC and even the Republican party but it is possible he hurt my first prefernce vote a smidge" As well established, a few more first place votes, and we may be seeing a Hughento Presidency. While Harry may well be doomed, his strong shpwing can be attributed to the fact that, for the most part, he united the left. In retrospect, Hughento should have gone for the left, instead of trying in vain to steal some of Sen. Nation's centrist support. Hughento, however, says that he would have gone harder for the centrist nomination "yes, I woul've fought harder for the UAC nomination and I would've sent anpother couple of "Hugh&you" emails. " While it is true that without a strong UAC candidate in the race, Hughento could allow the left to go with Al or Harry, he may have been smart to realize that influential UAC members wanted a UAC candidate. "I didn't want to risk not winning the UAC candidacy, because I believe all the alternatives at that stage of the race to myself (basically everyone but Nation) wouldn't be as good as a uniter, a leader and a progressor as myself", says Hughento, concerning the option of joining the UAC before the primary. Overall, it seems that Hughento made a tactical error in going for the middle and not the left.
