Labor Party Standing Committee thread: Endorsement voting

[H.E. VOLODYMYR ZELENKSYY]

Aye.

[H.E. VOLODYMYR ZELENKSYY]

I nominate Napoleon for Vice-Chair.

[H.E. VOLODYMYR ZELENKSYY]

Sorry, guys!!

I un-nominate Napoleon for V-C.

[H.E. VOLODYMYR ZELENKSYY]

Well, I appreciate the offer but Nathan is right. Sort of. Im actually the deputy leader of that other party.

Really? Who's the Liberal leader, then? I could've sworn it was you.

Scott, which of course makes the confusion understandable.

One of the best things about the JCP dissolution is that now people can more easily distinguish me from you two.

Well, now we can't distinguish them from each other!

[H.E. VOLODYMYR ZELENKSYY]

I don't see why we shouldn't endorse you.

[H.E. VOLODYMYR ZELENKSYY]

I personally think that Snowy quit the VC when he deregistered, but he can have it back if he wants.

[H.E. VOLODYMYR ZELENKSYY]

Do we have anyone that could run? There was Snowy, but he dropped out.

[H.E. VOLODYMYR ZELENKSYY]

Are we automatically endorsing Labor candidates? Because if not, we should vote on endorsing Snowy soon.

[H.E. VOLODYMYR ZELENKSYY]

In theory Labor party should disband if we don't get 75% support for our own candidate, since we are really doing nothing productive.

Like how the Liberal Party got 0% in the last Senate election? Again, I fail to understand your desire for hyperpartisanship for the sake of hyperpartisanship. What happened to Atlasia first?

Liberal party failed to nominate a single candidate. Look what happened to their turnout. same thing will happen to the Labor party if we can't shore up the support for our candidate. Our parties are doing a disservice to people sharing their ideologies, and we would *gasp* lose another election to right-wingers. It would be better for Tweed to form a radical left party and take the dissatisfied Labor members and have the rest of Labor go into the Liberal party if the Labor doesn't want to support it's own candidate.

Would you seriously prefer President Clarence to President Napoleon?

I personally am intending to vote for Napoleon because a) he has the best chance at winning and b) Snowstalker's crazy post-election rant kinda turned me off to the idea of him running in elections, frankly.

I respect the fact that we want the most left-wing candidate possible (excluding people like Tweed and such), but infighting like this is going to tear down the Atlasian left. We have the same ideas; it's the Whigs who are our enemies.

[H.E. VOLODYMYR ZELENKSYY]

F**k you all.

You're Newt Gingrich, Snowy, and this is your divorce records.

We are at a turning point here. Do we go with the unelectable Laborite or the front-runner Liberal?

I think the choice is clear if we want to prevent Whig domination of the federal government.

Also, where are Nathan and Snowy?

[H.E. VOLODYMYR ZELENKSYY]

Labor Endorsement order Preference(Only candidates that receive over 50% of the vote):
[1]Napoleon
[3]Young Tweed
[2]Oakvale

Sorry, Oakie!

[H.E. VOLODYMYR ZELENKSYY]

Why not Oakvale?

[H.E. VOLODYMYR ZELENKSYY]

I have no problem with preferencing 20RP12, but since only one person voted (Fritz, I believe), it is my opinion that a recount should be held.

[H.E. VOLODYMYR ZELENKSYY]

Who do we have that we could run?

[H.E. VOLODYMYR ZELENKSYY]

Seatown's a Senator, currently...

We should get to contacting some candidates!.

[H.E. VOLODYMYR ZELENKSYY]

I'm supporting Scott. He's done a fine job so far and I'm proud to have him as my Senator.

Cheers, applause.

[H.E. VOLODYMYR ZELENKSYY]

Did Snowy ever technically return to being Vice-Chair (or leave, for that matter)?

[H.E. VOLODYMYR ZELENKSYY]

I don't think anybody's sure, although we do not have any Vice-Chair who isn't Snowy...

We have got to be the most internally dysfunctional party right now. We didn't even manage to run anyone for the Pacific governorship.

Nor the Whigs.

Was NVT's run orchestrated by you guys or did he just decide to do it? If the latter, then no one did.

I only PMed one person to ask them to run for it (Oakvale)- and he's not even a registered Liberal anymore.  I'm not sure if someone else asked him to, though.

Then may I have the honor of anointing the recent Pacific Gubernatorial Special Election the Alfred F. Jones Award for Lame Electioning?

[H.E. VOLODYMYR ZELENKSYY]

Can I also nominate Seatown for Whip? Does such a position exist?

[H.E. VOLODYMYR ZELENKSYY]

I'm starting to wonder if we're the only people here...

I'm just screwing Nate and Seaboy over here and opening a vote for Vice-Chair:

[ ] Snowstalker
[ ] Write-in

[X] Snowstalker
[ ] Write-in

[H.E. VOLODYMYR ZELENKSYY]

Why not?

[H.E. VOLODYMYR ZELENKSYY]

Confirming once and for all that Snowy is Vice-Chair.

Voting expired yesterday, but it doesn't matter. Snowy is completely and totally Vice-Chair.

...I suck at proctoring.

[H.E. VOLODYMYR ZELENKSYY]

Congratulations to our own Alfred F. Jones, the new Lieutenant Governor of the Northeast! Ho there for the national elections!

That's actually Simfan.

And Congrats Adam!
