Let's review Demrepdan's posting history, shall we? For the months of May, June, and July:
May: 22 posts, on 3 different days
June: 7 posts, on 4 different days
July (so far): 3 posts, on 2 different days
Demrepdan may have been active in forum politics at one time, but that does not appear to be the case lately.
Hugh, Gustaf, Nym90, I urge you to reconsider your voting decisions. Vote for a man who takes an active part in the forum. We should not elect someone to the senate who only checks in here on 3-4 days a month! The senate is disorganized as it is, and needs active, participating members.
If you are planning to vote for me, I would reccomend PBrunsel as the second-choice vote. Although PBrunsel and I have very different stances on the issues, he has proven that he would be an active leader in the senate.
Fritz brings up a salient point. This isn't just about parties, this is about electing a senator who's actually going to be an active member of that body. Demrepdan hasn't exactly shown that that will be the case. For instance, where has Demrepdan been since the announcement of his candidacy? We haven't seen much of him. PBrunsel and Fritz on the other hand have been very active on the forum lately.
