Public Office of Former President Tmthforu94

[tmthforu94]

hello

[tmthforu94]

Endorsed!

Two little nitpicks, though:
1. It's only three months, not four.
2. He doesn't have three more months now, for obvious reasons.

Thank you! Edited it out, old habits die hard.

[tmthforu94]

Thank you all for your support, I truly appreciate it. The election begins in a few days, please let me know if you have any questions!

Yes, will there be Hot Dogs or Hamburgs at your victory party?

Neither - win or lose, we will be having KC BBQ with the works!

Statement on Southern gubernatorial election

I have just posted in the Candidate Declaration thread that I am running for governor of the South in this weekend's special election. Besides me, there is only one other candidate running, and I believe that voters should always have a choice when it comes to a democratically elected office. I recognize that tmthforu has much support already, and I'm confident that he will be a fine governor, but I'm putting my name on the ballot to make sure that the South can make a real decision.

Thank you,
Representative Razze

Welcoming Razze to the race - thank you for giving Southern voters a choice in the election; unopposed elections are no fun.

We are short on time, but I'd be more than happy to participate in a debate with you. You can pick the moderator and the format, I am happy with anything as long as you don't pick Fairboi!!!

[tmthforu94]

The vote will soon begin. We have two good, qualified candidates running in this race, and I think the South is already heading in the right direction - I am confident we will rebound from the disastrous Fairboi administration. Please remember to vote!!

[tmthforu94]

People of the South: I humbly thank you for trusting in me to serve as your next governor. Razze, thank you for running a positive, spirited campaign. Tomorrow the work begins to start erasing the years of failure caused by the Fairboil (good guy, bad governor) administration, but I know that we will do it and the South will prosper again! 

[tmthforu94]

Southerners: I am now your governor. I will be signing legislation and issues releasing in the Regional Government sub-forum - click here to access.

This thread will be used to share important information with Southerners - in the past I have tried to stick with just one thread, but see importance of having a presence in both places so going to try this for a while and see how it works out. Please give feedback as we go along and I will adjust accordingly.

[tmthforu94]

Statement

Because I am now governor, I can no longer be your justice on the Supreme Court. A vacancy has been created and it is my constitutional duty to appoint a replacement.

I hope to make an appointment as soon as possible - I will be reaching out to several qualified individuals. Additionally, if you have an interest in serving or have a recommendation, you are encouraged to let me know.

[tmthforu94]

Statement

Two things:

1. I have been EXTREMELY impressed by the pool of candidates I have for the Supreme Court vacancy. I am in discussions with multiple individuals and am in the process of narrowing down the decision within the next few days. I hope that the nominee can be confirmed quickly so that the region has proper representation on the court.

2. Regular Southern Elections are scheduled for this weekend. At this point, to my count, we have the following declared candidates:

Southern Governor
- Disgraced Former Governor Fairboi
- Myself
At this point there has not been a Federalist primary yet

Chamber of Delegates
- TimTurner
- Bagel23
- Thumb21
- Ben Kenobi
- Spark498
- killertahu22
- Young Texan
- Spark498
- TheSaint250

I am pleased to see so many wonderful candidates in the race!

Executive Order #1

Since taking office yesterday, I have learned that the Governor's office has been flooded with complaints regarding the raccoon infestation that has been plaguing the region for months. Unfortunately former Governor Fairboi did not address this issue.

Recently, we have received reports of raccoons attempting to overtake regional hospitals and several community colleges. Southern raccoons operate 24/7, they are not nocturnal. Several confirmed rabies cases have been reported and they have recently been hunting our children for sport in local parks. We do not support violence against raccoons - our goal is peaceful cohabitation and we will work with raccoon leaders to achieve this.

At this point, no casualties have been reported, but the key is to raise awareness.

As Governor, I hereby designate July 17th of each year as Raccoon Awareness Day. We are working with local leaders to set up community forums to provide resources to our citizens.

At this time, no legislative action will be taken, but the Governor's office will continue to monitor this situation closely. As your Governor, I am committed to getting the raccoon problem in this region under control.

This is converted back into a campaign thread, I am not legally governor, TheSaint is. Executive Order #1 is invalid, I have deleted my official Governor's Office since I am not Governor, hopefully I will get to reopen it in a few weeks!

[tmthforu94]

I will be fully briefing TheSaint on this issue, we have a strong working relationship so I am confident we will be able to work together to solve the raccoon crisis.

[tmthforu94]

Another weekend, another election! Defeat Fairboi; vote Tmth!

Click Here to Vote Tmthforu94 for Southern Governor

The polls are open! Please take a moment to vote Tmth for Governor, as well as our strong slate of Chamber of Delegates' candidates.

Reminder for those who didn't know: disgraced former Governor Fairboi disappeared without explanation back on June 24th. He has not posted since, though said on FB that he was "burnt out." I will not be burnt out on the good people of this region.

What happens if you elect Tmth as Governor?
- I will make a strong appointment to the Supreme Court
- I will work with delegates to ensure our constitution and election laws are clear and understood
- I will solve the raccoon problem facing our region once and for all.
- I will proactively work with ALL Southerners to promote activity throughout the region.
- Even though many have approached me to do so and have been very persuasive, saying "Tmth, you gotta run, you'd do so much good!!!", I will stay COMMITTED to the South and will not run for President in October.

Fairboi: good guy, terrible governor. The South deserves better. It is time to turn a new page: elect Tmth!

*hughughug*

[tmthforu94]

It may be a bit late, but you have my full support in your race

Thank you, it is much appreciated!!

[tmthforu94]

If I am elected, one of the, if not the, first big step is EDUCATING all elected officials, that includes governors office, on the constitution so we ALL understand. May be changes as well, we'll see!

[tmthforu94]

Glad to see so many candidates running, but we'll have to see if 7 delegates is too many, seems like a lot to me. Something we will take a look at. What are your thoughts?

[tmthforu94]

It appears I have won. Thank you Razze for running a respectful campaign. Congratulations to those elections to the Chamber of Delegates. We have a lot of work ahead.

Statement regarding vacant Supreme Court seat
There has been discussion regarding how to handle the Supreme Court seat that I vacated after winning the special election. In talking with Acting Governor The Saint, we feel that it is important to have someone nominated and confirmed as soon as possible. to ensure our region is properly represented on the court. This is especially important as justices may be forced to recuse themselves from a current Supreme Court case.

I spent the last week interviewing MANY qualified candidates - the decision came down to SJoyce, PiT and Texasgurl. All three would make phenomenal justices and should be considered down the road. As the governor-elect, I have provided my recommendation to Acting Governor The Saint and he will formally be nominating this individual later today.

Thank you.

Associate Justice Nomination
To Replace Former Associate Justice Tmthforu94

My fellow Southerners,

After collaborating with Governor-elect Tmthforu94, we have recognized the urgency to nominate a new Associate Justice from the South.  The governor-elect, after considering a number of nominees, has settled on none other than PiT (The Physicist).  PiT, as you well know, has had an honorable career serving the South and Atlasia to the best of his ability, most recently serving as our nation's Vice President.  In the eyes of myself and a number of other Atlasian politicians, he would be the perfect addition to the court, and I am proud to have the chance to nominate him.

So, without further ado, I, Acting Southern Governor TheSaint250, am nominating PiT (The Physicist) to be the new Associate Justice from the South.

Congratulations to PiT, and I look forward to seeing him on the court.

In addition, I will release an announcement on this past weekend's election later tonight.

[tmthforu94]

Statement
I will be swearing in as your governor tomorrow. I am excited to hit the ground running with southern delegates - we have a lot of important issues to tackle. I will be making a statement this weekend regarding Wiki reform. I will also make a statement on the raccoon crisis once I have been fully briefed. 

I encourage you to keep following this office and my official office in the Regional Government sub-board.

Please follow my instagram account @ibahney94 and you can see pictures of The First Dog of the South, Benson. It is currently on private to keep the haters out. Thx

[tmthforu94]

Statement
The Governor-elects' office has announced that he will not be retaining Mr. Chris Carr and Mr. Ken Detzner to their cabinet positions. Instead, he will be issuing an executive order tomorrow that appoints Peebs to Secretary of State and Mr. Reactionary to Attorney General. He also plans to appoint former Governor Fairbol as the Czar of Bad Decision-making.
