Spark for Southern Chamber - We WON! Transition to come

[Senator-elect Spark]

Platform Reveal - Richmond, VA, State Capitol

As you all know, I will be running for the Southern Chamber of Delegates in July. I will be detailing my platform and listing my campaign schedule around the region very soon.

Political positions:

Abortion- I am staunchly pro-life and believe that abortion is murder and morally wrong.
Death penalty- Currently banned nationally, opposed to its reinstatement (except in cases such as heinous crimes like terrorism) due to truly being pro life.
Healthcare - I support a free market healthcare system with competition over state lines and only penalizing insurance companies when they charge monopolistic prices for medications to protect citizens from unfair pricing schemes.
Gun control- I don’t believe that there should be strict control since we have a 2nd Amendment right to bear arms, I do believe that background checks are necessary and assault weapons should be regulated.
Economy/taxation- I will vote to cut taxes, decrease regulation on businesses. In order for them to expand, there needs to be an incentive for growth. Higher taxes place a burden on them since wages are already high.
Education- Our schools in the South must be improved and this can be done by increasing teacher salaries and instead of focusing on standardized testing we need to cater to each pupil’s needs. I would support a base standard but is should be left to the states.
Infrastructure- We must modernize and host more public works projects to rebuild our bridges, tunnels, and railways. This will create more jobs for our citizens.
Military spending- We should increase spending in this area while decreasing the amount spent on social programs such as affirmative action
Terrorism - I am for preventing terroristic attacks before they start and this can be done by extreme vetting.

Goals for my tenure:

Balanced Budget Amendment: To regulate spending and ensure we won’t have a deficit when entirely unnecessary
Educational Opportunity Act: To allow our students to receive a quality education while being granted the resources that they need to succeed
School Choice Bill: To allow parents to send their children to a school of preference while granting vouchers for charter schools
School Methods Act: Introduced
Selective Surveillance Act: Using technology to better improve our methods of detecting terroristic threats

Further information:

I pledge to be an active member of the Chamber as a moderate Federalist advocating for those who cannot speak.

Please review my platform and consider voting for me on July 20 in the Southern Chamber Election.

It is much appreciated. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to ask me below. Thank you

Sulphur, Louisiana

Hello citizens of the Southern region! I have officially arrived at a hotel here in wonderful Louisiana. There is no better place to commence my tour of the South than this place. I plan to not only take in the pretty sights, but also interact with potential voters about their preferences in the South. I plan to make some positive changes. The reason I am running for the Chamber of Delegates is to improve our situation here in the region. This region also has fallen victim to the plague of inactivity and we need to hold our representatives accountable for this. I will serve consistently and be the best I can to cooperate with other members in the legislature. We need lower taxes, lower regulation, and more opportunity for citizens in the South.

Let's move forward together. We can no longer accept the poor performances in office and instead opt for a proven leader, legislator, and advocate that can listen to your voice. I will be staying in LA until tomorrow and if you have any questions, please contact me and I can do my best to answer them.

Thank you!

Even in the face of adversity, I will not waver or bend to the will of failure. I am resilient and will be fervent in my pursuit to serve the citizens of Atlasia. I'd like to reaffirm my commitment to each of you that I am here to stay and will never quit. Despite being defeated in two consecutive elections, I hope to be successful in my future endeavors and will accept any criticism, advice, and support willingly.

Lafayette, Louisiana

Hello everyone! It is my pleasure to be in such a great city and touring the awe inspiring state of Louisiana! I look forward to hearing from you about the affairs of the South. It is important that we come together as citizens and try our hardest to resist inactivity and instead place emphasis on reliability. We need a politician and legislator who will be forthright and consistent in their duties to conduct the office of Southern delegate. I believe this is what I embody and have the necessary experience to make it happen. If elected, I will ensure that the legislature is held accountable and do their job for the citizens of the Southern region. I promise to be an active member and be proactive for you all.

Thank you for providing me with the opportunity to visit this wonderful place.

Please consider voting for me on July 20th. God Bless you Louisiana!

Exploratory Committee for Southern Governor


My primary focus is on the race for the Southern Chamber of Delegates, but due to the result of a recent poll displaying Gov. Fairbol's approval which reflects upon performance, I have constructed an exploratory committee to entertain the possibility of running for Governor of the South. This is due to the inactivity and direction of the region. However, since I am new to the region and Fairbol is a good friend of mine and I do not think it is likely that I will challenge him in his bid for re-election.

UPDATE

I will not seek to challenge Gov. FairBol for the office of Southern Governor, unless there is no other challenger in the race by July 6th. For now, my primary focus will be on election to the Southern CoD and to legislate effectively.

Stay tuned.

Thank you.

UPDATE

Statement on Voting and Legislation

As a moderate Federalist, I understand the need to compromise in a legislative body. I had experience as a Lincoln Assemblyman in the Northern legislature for a 1/2 term. I never voted for legislation that would endanger citizens. As a legislator, I would again strive to protect them and be a fierce advocate for their concerns. This is important to me as a politician and most importantly, as a leader. I am principled, modest, and especially tolerant of others' political views. I returned to the Federalist Party because they gave me everything I have and I am grateful for that. It would be an honor to serve as Delegate in the Southern legislature. This is a region which is in dire need of a candidate who is going to stand up and be the voice that it needs. There is much progress to be accomplished, and I know that Atlasians take precedent over everything else. This is the reason I will be active and committed to the cause of improving your lives.

In any decisions I make, I will take the people's views into account and ensure I am properly representing them. Compromising is especially important when it comes to getting bills passed. This will make it more efficient to conduct business with the Governor and the rest of the Chamber. We need a consistent legislator with proven results and someone who is dedicated to furthering the cause of the Southern region. I believe I can make that possible. I ask for your vote in this upcoming election to turn stagnation around and hold our politicians accountable. The people deserve active politicians who will conduct their duties to their utmost abilities. We will move forward.

I will be discussing more of my proposals soon.

Tupelo, Mississippi

Hello Tupelo! It is my honor to be here today and learn more about your state. The reason that I am running for the Southern CoD is to inspire our citizens and allow them to lead a better life. We need politicians that will be free from corruption, which has tainted much of politics. Citizens deserve to have a voice and speak out against it. I will do everything I can to be your advocate and make necessary progress on issues such as creating new jobs, rebuilding our infrastructure, and protecting our citizens through the use of improved regional security measures.

If you choose to pledge your support to me, you will not be disappointed and I will work together with the CoD to make much needed reforms and progress for our citizens.

Thank you.

Hello my fellow Southerners! It is time to upend the streak of dishonesty, inactivity, and stagnation in the wonderful Southern region. Voters deserve an active Chamber of Delegates, and that is exactly what I will bring should I be elected as your representative. One way to ensure that there is activity is through having a passion for the issues and a willingness to make changes possible and for them to be lasting. I am committed to doing the best I can to make gradual changes in each of your lives as well as the region as a whole.

I will bring much vibrance, accountability, and principles to the Southern Chamber of Delegates!
