Statement on Boss Tweed's vote

[Hatman 🍁]

Unless there are any objections, I will be disqualifying Boss Tweed's vote because it has been alleged by a number of people that he had posted and then deleted an original vote then voting again.

[Ebowed]

I wish to allege that King deleted his vote and then reposted it.  Please disqualify it.

Apparently King is not even registered

I believe that Ebowed',s point is that no-one has proved that Boss Tweed deleted his original vote. Right now, there is only an allegation.

[Joe Republic]

This whole election was non-binding anyway.  It was merely a guide to show Earl who the public favored.  The decision is still entirely up to him, regardless of the final vote tally.

What exactly does the law state?
I know that one can't modify their votes, but is there a specific law about deleting and reposting?

I never have deleted my vote.

The notion or allegation that I did is unconditionally false.

I urge Hon. Gov. Washburn to reconsider.

Isn't this election supposed to be about guaging public opinion anyway? Tweed gave his opinion, whether or not it was in the "proper format" (which is non-existent BTW as this election isn't legal anyway) should hardly matter.

I agree with Jake on this one.

I'd like to make a point about the objective of this election.

If this election is held to give Gov. Washburn a guide as to who the public favors, my vote should absolutely count.  I, as a member of the Northeastern voting public, feel that FezzyFestoon should be the next senator from the region.  Unless my vote is counted as equally as every other northeasterner, the election can best be described as a sham.

Point taken, then why not just admit what you did instead of lying to the Governor?

[Hatman 🍁]

Well, a couple people have whined to me, but I guess they wont debate here, so I will keep Boss Tweed's vote then. Instead of qualifying or disqualifying votes, and counting a tally, I am just going to look at the general will of the region in making my decision. People have brought up a good point, in that this is only a public poll, really.

I applaud the governor upon his reaching of the correct conclusion.

That's too bad i guess i overestimated you Earl.

I said use the regular rules governing any Northeastern election. If you choose not to use that, that is fine. My point is this then, none of my supporters are up here calling foul and making false and stupid accusations of my opponent. I think Fezzy has lost credability with the people of the Northeast and the people of Atlasia as a whole.

My problem with allowing Tweeds vote is that it simply rewards cheating which he did by changing his vote and then lying about it.

I see your point, but that's no reason to be rude to Earl, he's just trying to do his job

It may be cheating, but I fail to even see the point of this rule. Am I missing something? Boss Tweed's intent was to vote for Fezzy, and I am only guageing people's intent in this election.
