Yes/PiT
While it might not be the proper "legal" thing to do, this is only a fantasy government. With so many close votes, it's the only reasonable thing to do. If Leif ends up winning, many PiT supporters will be very upset, and the same for Leif supporters if PiT ends. There could even be a boycott of the game from one side, which would destroy the fun of Atlasia. Giving both candidates another shot to Atlasians to vote for them, properly, is the best way to go, in my opinion.
(It would be great if more people would comment their thoughts, instead of just voting)

That's a terrible argument, Bayh.

I supported PiT and would support a runoff if it's legal, but if we use the excuse "it's only a fantasy game!" to defend it now, we are setting dangerous precedent for the future.
I'm just saying, if half of the voters (actually, more than half) are upset, and some of them quit being active in Atlasia, which there is a possibility of happening, that would really damage Atlasia.
