Provincial Election Results

[Ian Plätschisch]

Here's how it appears in the database:

RUMP:2

MRPT:1

PP:1

FDA:1

However, I think that I, along with Galen and Daniel, messed up our provincial votes. I simply wrote "Party Vote:MRPT" and expected that it would register both nationally and provincially, but the database says that I abstained on provincial vote.  It also says that Galen and Daniel abstained, which would make no since.  So, if we can correct them, the votes should really be

RUMP:2

MRPT:2

TSP:2

PP:1

FDA:1 

[Sir Alexandreu Davinescu]

Because we ceded our election to the Chancery, we'll certainly abide by however he sorts out those questionable votes. I wouldn't worry too much.

[Ian Plätschisch]

If the chancery assumes that we abstained, the votes would not appear questionable, even though we know they are.

Besides, this is the Assembly of Maritiimi-Maxhestic, not the Assembly of the Chancery. Why should we run to MPF to fix this problem when we can easily fix it ourselves?

[Sir Alexandreu Davinescu]

We're not running anywhere. We just asked the Chancery to conduct our election, legally and with the full vote of the Assembly. It would be illegal to overrule the Secretary of State, accordingly.

[Sir Alexandreu Davinescu]

Before you panic, speak with MPF and see if he'll be doing the common-sense thing and counting those votes.

Oh.  I didn't know our election laws were so strict

OK.  I'll send him a message tomorrow.

[Sir Alexandreu Davinescu]

It's not that our laws are strict, but if we just ignore laws when they're an inconvenience then we might as well not bother making any. It's bad enough that we're going to have to do a Sticla after the election because the last GGS didn't quite get it done.

Totally understandable.  I will be a law-abiding citizen and talk to MPF about it
