Jedi with 60% approval? He's the best PPT in recent memory.

Rankings aren't based on actual performance in the Senate. Even look at IRL: Nancy Pelosi is hated for her job as Speaker, but her constituents don't really care.

Yes, that's because of the Senate's complete detachment and unrelatedness to everyday Atlasia (which isn't necessarily the Senate's fault).  I certainly had no idea that MasterJedi was considered "the best PPT in recent memory" until afleitch said so.  In fact, I have no idea what makes a "good" PPT and a "bad" one, because I have little to no knowledge of the job performance of recent PPTs.

     Yeah, it was clear from the approvals that many people in Atlasia really don't follow Senate business. If they did, MasterJedi & Purple State would both be close to 100%.

I don't want to be harsh, MasterJedi is a great PPT, but he doesn't debate and improve bills with other senators.

And Purple State presided over the apparently unpopular Constitutional Convention, which made him unpopular enough to be the subject of a recall within the convention (though of course it failed).

That is an interesting result, considering the conventional wisdom of the current debate seems to indicate the opposite of this.

It's a disturbing result is what it is.

Perhaps if the wording were more general.  Marokai supports creation of a Council of Governors, for example, but the question wording specifically asks about conversion to all at-large.

I don't know how accurate this poll was. DA results seem very strange, for example, considering they claim to be the most reformist party.

Well, I think all parties do.

For reference, the ARC color shall be red.

The LNF color is red.

It's pinkish.

Couldn't possibly be all Pacific citizens voting in that poll, then.

I... sincerely doubt that, yes.

So, Teddy had one of the highest approvals of all cabinet officials; then quits because he thinks people don't like him.

Some people have delusions of grandeur.  Teddy has delusions of inadequacy.  I worry about him.  *hughughug*
