Hello, and welcome to the broadcast. Thanks to LSTMLL, we will be staying with you for all 72 hours of the election, only stopping to get more caffeine. Before we begin these midterms, let's take a stroll down memory lane.

It's a steamy weekend in August, and heading into the weekend the Senate is split, with the UAC controlling the Presidency and the Court. There are six Senate elections occuring, each one more interesting than the last. Out West, Mr. Hobbes defeated King for the Senate nomination, but he fails to get out of the first round. United Left Senate candidate Platypean Archcow has not posted in 2 weeks, and StevenNick easily cruises to re-election, even though one more vote for Mr. Hobbes in the First Round would have given The California Centrist a victory. In District 4, Harry is getting challenged by Josh22, who had PBrunsel campaign for him, and the race threatens to go to a run-off, especially after an Ernest legal challenge. In the nastiest race, District 3, Former Senator TexasGurl looks to take back her seat against Demrepdan, and the AFIP conglomorate there. Despite cheap shots by Governor Ilikeverin and Senator Hughento, TexasGurl sqeaks by 7-6. In the Old District 2, a newbie, RReagan4EVER, is giving Senator Akno21 a stiff challenge. When a troll casts his vote for RReagan117, Fritz counts it as a vote for Reagan, even though MAS117 was also in the race. With the contest tied, Akno takes the case to court, and wins, thus winning the election. Despite neither making it through his term, many have complained about the political beliefs of IrishDemocrat and Migrendel. In District 1, Write In Andrew advances to the Final Round to face IrishDemocrat. Andrew easily would win, but none of Keystone Phil's voters second preferenced anyone! IrishDemocrat sqeaks by. Up in the Northeast and District 2, Migrendel knocks out Democrat Umengus on a tiebreak that could have gone Umengus' way had Bono's voters second prefernced anyone. Migrendel than defeats Bono in the Final round. In the Midwest, everyone is shocked when Ilikeverin is defeated by his natural opposite, Write-In PBrunsel, 4-2. ILV lost key support from Liberals. Reaganfan lost a Gubernatorial election in the Southeast to Htmldon as well. The Left left with a 7-3 Senate lead, and a great string of momentum.

We can only hope the next 72 hours will be as entertaining.

The Midwest gubernatorial election always has surprises Wink

And don't forget we were the first region to have gubernatorial elections Smiley (that counts as a surprise for the first election)

Hey, I just realized I was first elected to the governor's mansion [approximately] 8 months ago!  Woot!

ILVNS2 will be carrying MANN coverage.  ILVNS1 will be carrying a Desperate Housewives marathon!  ILVNS3 will be carrying our own coverage, including expert analysis by Bella Goth!  And, finally, ILVNS4 will be carrying the new show Desperate Househusbands for heterosexual females, bi both sexes, and homosexual males Wink

Cheap Shots? Hardly Tongue

They weren't even negative, unless by interpretation, until Texasgurl started to attack myself.

I'm talking about placing her 7th. I don't care about it, I was just pointing it out.

Late into the night, candidates on both coasts are still presenting their case to the voters. In District 5, Alcon and Hughento have both thrown their support behind Gabu, although this is not surprising.

From now on, actual news will be in italics, normal chat in normal font.

Former Senator King has jumped into the District 5 race as a write-in candidate. It'll still be Gabu vs. everyone else, but most of StevenNick's support is from Centrists with Blue avatars, and King stands a decent chance of knocking out StevenNick in the first round. Gabu would still win in the Final round. 15 MINUTES LEFT!

The entry of King doesn't affect your support, you stay the same, you just may face King and not StevenNick in the final round. Badly worded.

What if Gabu gets knocked for some reason and I face Steven? Wink

The odds of that are so slim it's not worth talking about.
BTW, we are beating you in the ratings by about 60 or so.

King winning would certainly be a rather interesting twist to this election.

"After weeks of hard campaigning for Gabu and StevenNick, the dust has finally settled, and the winner is... neither."

NickG's vote does not count in the D1 race since he is currently not a resident of District 1 as it stands. I condemn MANN for running false results.

MANN condemns itself thank you. MANN also points out that the rest is correct and that we are the only ones to offer this.

Nor does Ethelberth's or EarlAW since they do not have their state of residency indicated.

Since Hermit deleted himself and is no longer a registered voter, all votes for him go to the 2nd preferences.
