Reaganfan's ballot has been additionally disqualified as the 7 day provision does indeed apply to special elections and not just regular elections as other laws had stated.

A Note. My count has Sewer with one vote while some private counts have Lewis. Sewer wrote himself in, though, not in the #1 slot. Lewis wrote Sewer in above himself. This Sewer would get this ballot.

Bravo on a well-run election Teddy.

Thanks. While I do run into bumps in the road, I am trying to ensure that these things will never be a problem again. The more problems I run into now, the better we will be in the future as I am adding more and more to the Guidebook. My goal is that we will never have repeated problems again.

[Teddy (IDS Legislator)]

Note that I've been updating the Candidates list.

[Teddy (IDS Legislator)]

Thank you, and noted.

Gubernatorial elections are a regional affair and not within the purview of this department. I do however note the senatorial endorsement.

[Teddy (IDS Legislator)]

Hello,

As JCP Chairman, it is my duty to inform you that the JCP has endorsed HappyWarrior for ME Senator and NCYankee for SE Senator, and both candidates may appear on our ballot line.

Yankee has accepted, and will be listed as such.

I will contact HappyWarrior.

The RPP has endorsed AndrewCT for President on a ticket with RPPer Duke

Andrew has accepted, and will be listed as such.

Forgot about this one.


The RPP has endorsed the honorable Dallasfan65 for NE Regional Senator and the honorable Hantheguitarman for Governor of the Northeast, which I forgot to include with the endorsement of the honerable AndrewCT.

I will contact Dallasfan

[Teddy (IDS Legislator)]

HappyWarrior has accepted and will be listed as such.

[Teddy (IDS Legislator)]

I've been contacted by the dallasfan team that they accept, but it is a grey zone and I dont think I can accept from a team member without the official say-so of dallas. Therefore I will lodge the request as having come in now (an hour before the deadline) and check in with dallas ASAP to get official confirmation.

EDIT - he has accepted

[Teddy (IDS Legislator)]

SAMPLE BALLOT

This election is held in accordance with Article V of the Constitution and with the Consolidated Electoral System Reform Act.  The regular election begins at 23:59 EDT, Thursday, October 21th, and ends at 23:59 EDT, Sunday, October 24th.

DO NOT EDIT OR DELETE THE POST CONTAINING YOUR BALLOT IN ANY WAY AFTER 20 MINUTES OF ITS BEING POSTED OR YOUR VOTE WILL BE INVALIDATED

The act of campaigning within the election booth is strictly forbidden and will render void any votes made by those who campaign. The act of campaigning is considered to include, but is not limited to, strong attempts to compel others either to vote or not to vote for one or multiple candidates, or other related activities that could reasonably be construed as a direct attempt to influence how future voters cast their ballots. In other words, this is not a discussion thread. In short, the department will be taking a liberal interpreation of this, so Keep posts to votes only.

Place the numbers 1, 2, etc. in the space provided beside the candidates who you wish to vote for to designate your order of preference for these candidates.  If any other mark or attempt to order the candidates is made, the Department of Forum Affairs will make every effort to deduce voter intent from the content of the ballot, but the warning must be issued that failure to follow the above instructions may result in the invalidation of your ballot in the event of an inability to discern voter intent.  You are an eligible voter in general if you were registered to vote on or before the proper date, and if you made 15 posts in any location within the Atlas Forum in the 8 weeks prior to the commencement of the regular election. In other words, if your name appears on the Census list, you can presume you are elegible.  

In the event that you do not support any listed candidate or that you support one or many candidates that are not listed in addition to those that are, you may write in other candidates and include them in your list of preferences.  Space is provided for one such write-in, but as many can be listed as you wish.  In the event that you do not support any listed candidate, and do not wish to write in any candidate, you may place an X or a 1 beside "None of the above", and only beside "None of the above".  In the event that an X or a 1 appears beside "None of the above" on a ballot, all other marks or numbers will be ignored.  It is not permissible under current election law to vote for both "None of the above" and other candidates.

Note that voting begins at the proper time, and not immediately. Any votes cast before 23:59 shall be determined invalid. -- May be removed from final ballot if I am awake at the proper time.

Names of candidates follow in alphabetical order.

[Teddy (IDS Legislator)]

The RPP has not stricken reaganfan from using the name.

[Teddy (IDS Legislator)]

https://uselectionatlas.org/AFEWIKI/index.php/Fusion_Ballot_Reform_Act this relates to this act, which, as I read it, says:

that although official endorsements must come from the party, that the party also retains the right to prohibit someone from running on their party line.

There is about 20 mins to go before the ballot is posted. I am confidant enough that the simple fact that section 4 exists means that section 2 mainly applies to endorsements of candidates not already having the party label.

I have been specifically informed by the RPP chair that the RPP will not be striking Reganfan from using the RPP name. (I, as a citizen asked the chair to do so, but the chair then informed me as SoFE that he will not be doing so)
