Office of Mideast Governor HappyWarrior

[HappyWarrior]

Come if you have any suggestions or questions to improve the Mideast Region.

[HappyWarrior]

How do I certify them?

[HappyWarrior]

Does anyone have any initiatives for the region?

[HappyWarrior]

I've just certified the results for the ballot for October.  I'd like to thank everyone for their support for the two propositions up for vote.  Both passed, one had a single dissenter.  I'd also like to congratulate Sensei as our region's new senator.  I'd also like to congratulate all the other recently elected officials including President Colin Wixted.  I am saddened however by the reinstating of the death penalty in the Southeast.  I hope the voters will try to overturn this sometime in the future.

[HappyWarrior]

No one in particular in mind.  I hope anyone interested will PM me.  I will nominate and put up for a vote someone on friday.

[HappyWarrior]

I hereby announce my recomendation of Inks.LWC as the new Lt. Governor of the Mideast Region.  My former opponent was a distinguished governor of our region and continues to be a prominent member tof the region.

[HappyWarrior]

I'll do it tonight

[HappyWarrior]

Distinguished? I seem to recall him making a ham-fisted attempt at rigging a referendum.

Which one?  If this is true, I will defintly withdraw the nomination.

[HappyWarrior]

I'll leave the voting til next weekend when Inks will be able to plead his case or I will choose someone new.

[HappyWarrior]

Ill just put it up tonight.  Let the voters decide if they wantcha or not.

[HappyWarrior]

But it was not rigging - what I did was not illegal,

Whether what you did was illegal or not is irrelevant (though it certainly should be illegal, and in the real world the practice of intimidation generally is).

Do you deny trying to manipulate the results of a referendum? Manipulating election results is sometimes known as "rigging" them.

Well Al, what you did was clearly illegal.

No Inks, it was'nt any more illegal than what I did, or you did.  So do not try to make it out that it was.  Pure and simple.

[HappyWarrior]

He deleted it and tried to revote, trying to sneak around me.

Not so. I deleted it because it contained some abusive remarks. Other posts of mine concerning that round of regional elections were also deleted by me and for the same reason.

I later refused to admit to deleting my vote and revoting because I was amused at quite how seriously you took the whole thing.

Think I've said all that before. Hope I don't have to again.

And I didn't rig a vote.  I encouraged people to relook at the way they voted and the amendment, and if they felt they voted the wrong way, to change their vote.  I never told somebody to change their vote.

Think I've said all that before.  Hope I don't have to again.

No, you told them to invalidate their votes, I know, I got one of the letters.

[HappyWarrior]

Trust me I won't ;_

[HappyWarrior]

I need ideas, most of the remaining regional people have positions or have already denied interest.

One of the people who voted me down - if they didn't want me in power, then they must have an idea for a better person.

Dean?  Joe?  Opebo?  Pick one of them.

Thanks Inks.

I'd like to announce that my next nominee for the Lt. Governorship of the Mideast will be..........Peter!

Somebody who hasn't voted in the past 2 elections?

Inks, can you please stop questioning every single thing I do?

Isn't that kinda the point of loyal opposition?  Questioning the Governor of the opposite party and ideology?

And not to criticize you myself, but I'd suggest that the next time you choose an LG to send to the voters, it'd be in poor form to leave them hanging out to dry with an "abstain" vote.

Abstaination is only right in my opinion, it's not as if the President gets a vote in the confirmation of his Secretary of Defense.

[HappyWarrior]

But your not the President, your the Governor. The President doesn't need to vote on a Secretary of Defense because he is the on who nominated them. Your region needs a Lt. Governor, and I would vote for the person you nominate, regardless if you want them to be in the position or not.

In much the same way, I nominated the Lt. Governor.  But I want the people of the region to have the choice of who is their Lt. Governor. 

[HappyWarrior]

Has Peter even accepted his nomination?  If so, why the delay?  If not, why the announcement?

Yes, he accepted via PM.  I was just waiting til midnight tonight to post the actual thread so that I will be able to close it on time.

I'm against it - but put it on the ballot - although I think if people felt strongly about it, it would've been overturned in an initiative.

Well I personally had'nt heard of it until today when I was looking up past initiatives for information.

[HappyWarrior]

So I'd just like to know why everyone turned down two of my three propositions this week.

[HappyWarrior]

Considering it's twice failure I won't bring up the cloning issue again.  The term limits idea I am not sure about.  I do not want there to be any chance the Mideast becomes a virtual dictatorship as some Regions have.
