Alright, listen, Wulfric. Listen closely, I don't like repeating myself.

Your constant yappings about how the right is completely dead, how Labor is the ultimate party, how everything will be like this forever end right here, right now. The idea that any party will remain in power for eternity is foolish. A Fed could've just as easily said the same thing back in early to mid 2018 when Labor had no seats in either branch in Congress, and when Labor had little power in the regional governments. But Labor has arisen, as you can see. But Labor will lose its grace. It will fall. Enjoy your cocktails and power while you still have it. The fact that a race between a Fed and a Laborite in such a titanium L region in Fremont can be close is proof that y'all should move into panic mode ASAP. Because trust me, this "red wave" we're experiencing is a thin balloon rising and rising in the air, and it will pop. You better invest in some parachutes, because you're about to fall.

It was only close because it was a little-known write-in candidate, whose candidacy the left wasn't even aware of until voting had already begun. That they were able to scramble up the votes quite literally at the last minute for someone people didn't even know is really something. If Labor had a more high profile candidate, or potentially if RFA09 had simply declared his candidacy in advance, you would have lost by more. Also, 12 points is not really close.

It was a one vote difference. One vote. The only reason it was 12 points was because Fremont is an underpopulated desert. ANY VOTER COULD HAVE SAW THAT A LABORITE WAS RUNNING, and considering how Labor has put elections over legislation, they flocked to the polls and voted based on partisanship. There were only 3 votes before RFA declared, and all three were righties. RFA was going to win, because all hail Labor, Labor is the only thing that matters, party over people.

But, you're distracting from the main point. Labor has gotten very cocky, but this success will end. It has an expiration date. Brace yourselves, Labor will die, and the pendulum of partisan politics will keep swinging.

If the right is dead, at least we can refer to the left, fittingly, as the 'undead' now.

Well, that makes total sense considering how they are effective at managing mindless zombie voters to keep showing up to the polls to vote for your bargain bin do-nothing lefty candidate who ends up fulfilling none of the voters' actual ideological desires while in government.

After transfer of votes, it was a FOUR VOTE DIFFERENCE (19-15) (not one).

Further, I disagree with the idea of placing the left's awareness of (and focus on) RFA09's candidacy at the very moment at which he voted. My thread on the candidacy was not created until hours later, and the first vote after his that mentioned him was cast hours later. Further, leftists at first resisted the idea by backing RoyCooper2020 as a first pref, then shifted gears. This is clear in the voting thread. Despite that, as your post hints, Labor wins regardless of whether you use FPTP or RCV to decide the election. This was a real last minute effort, and it was amazingly successful, and the right remains dead.

Once, again, you're missing the ing point.

YOU AREN'T GONNA BE WALKING ON SUNSHINE FOREVER. LABOR WILL FALL. YOU'RE BECOMING COCKY ABOUT A FACT THAT IS NOT TRUE. THE FEDS WEREN'T DANCING ON ROOFTOPS WHEN LABOR WAS DEAD, WHY AREN'T YOU DOING THE SAME RIGHT NOW? YOU WILL LOSE ONE DAY. CUSHION YOUR FALL WHILE YOU STILL CAN.

ALSO, DON'T SAY THIS IS A MESSAGE OF PARTISANSHIP. IF I DIDN'T CARE ABOUT YOU, I WOULDN'T BE SAYING THIS RIGHT NOW.

Okay, I'm done dealing with you. Clearly, you aren't willing to accept evidence and reason. And even if I am cocky, Labor Leaders are clearly not, because we keep winning.

Alright, fine. I'm just warning you. Believe it or not, I'm not a one-way Partisan Patrick. I don't want you guys to crash and fall and burn and die, because I want Atlasia to be fun, even for my opponents. You can win, but your golden goose will die, and you have to prepare for that day. The partisan pendulum swings back and forth. It is inevitable.

Just keep that in mind, Mr. Speaker. Keep it in mind.

Not really a win for the left, as everybody except for Galaxie lost in a landslide. In fact, I was the runner-up, and I'm what most would consider the "Atlas Right," or at least a moderate part of it.

How do the January regional elections factor into this?

In the south TM won by a slightly smaller margin than before, with more protest votes; but the Feds got back control of the Chamber of Delegates (3-2)

Meanwhile in Fremont while Scott ran unopposed and the left does hold a 4-2-1 majority as of now I think.

Given the Decent or better results for Feds in these elections, I decided not to include them for this.

I mean, why let contradictory evidence get in the way of a good crusade narrative.

Which reminds me I need to catch back on Extra History again.

Nope, I'm a Laborite through and through, as you can see on my house ballot. It's just that I didn't sign an oath to the Peace Party, so when the leftists are running a Peace Ticket as the main show, I feel free to vote my conscience, whatever that may be.

There is a thread about this entitled "Can ideologies die".
