Torie, welcome to the game that is known as Atlasia.
However, if you want to be elected in this game, I suggest you move from the Pacific to another region in Atlasia. You cannot beat the system known as the JCP, unless you join them . It worked for Culture King and look at him now, he's a Senator.
This is less of an issue now that we use PR-STV for the midterm elections.
Anyway, not that it's likely to make a damn bit of difference, but I fully support and endorse Torie here in his bid to become Pacific Region Senator. We could sure use more folks like this.
