I didn't, but after having done a quick read-up on it I have to concede that this alone ought to earn Québec its independence.

Lol... they only steal the chairs? Why??? Mximo I bolted the table and potting bench down after the Arrogant Worms attempted to re appropriate them for some sort of second city reunion or some such nonsense.

Why do I have a new set of chairs on my front porch?
I think I'm being set up.

Here is another indication of the strength of our political system now (as well as a sad indictment that we're still not doing enough to hold new citizens' interest). First-Time Voters (new or returned citizens) scattered their votes among all of the various choices: - RUMP: 9
- STRIKE: 6
- ZRT: 4
- PRESENT: 4
- CSPP: 3
- MRPT: 2
- IND: 2
- LPR: 1
(Note that one of the strikers had been in touch with me frequently during the election saying he had every intention to vote, so perhaps the newbie-strike-count should be five, not six, but for some reason the deadline beat him.) Hool

(as well as a sad indictment that we're still not doing enough to hold new citizens' interest). Perhaps we could put together a survey for the next MinImm and/or Stuff to use get in contact with the strikers to see if there's any commonalities between the rationales for non-participation (failure to understand issues, intimidation by the political process in-general, perceptions that vote wouldn't matter, etc.)? The problem's very real, but it's difficult to devise a comprehensive solution until specific focal points are identified.

Hi Ilya --
Why did you fail to show up at the polls to say "PRESENT", at least? Failing to do so gave you a strike against your citizenship. :-(

I was a bit busy with russian politics and Russian Police. You are definitely a citizen of Talossa. It takes three consecutive missed-elections to end your citizenship. The single strike you just recorded will be wiped away in the next election (if it is not pardoned by the King, who may just see this evidence that you're still very interested in Talossa, and do so).

Here's some more analysis of the mobility of the electorate from the 44th to the 45th (this includes the first-timers, which I have also listed earlier). Sadly, this kind of analysis will be impossible to do beginning with the next election, so let's get it all out of our system now, I guess. :-( [/td] [td]RUMP[/td] [td]ZRT[/td] [td]CSPP[/td] [td]MRPT[/td] [td]IND[/td] [td]NPW[/td] [td]LPR[/td] [td]PRESENT[/td] [td]STRIKE[/td] [/tr] [tr][td]RUMP[/td][td] 69 [/td][td] 61 [/td] [td] 43 [/td] [td] 0 [/td] [td] 0 [/td] [td] 1 [/td] [td] 5 [/td] [td] 3 [/td] [td] 1 [/td] [td] 2 [/td] [td] 14 [/td] [/tr] [tr][td]ZRT[/td][td] 29 [/td][td] 18 [/td] [td] 0 [/td] [td] 14 [/td] [td] 1 [/td] [td] 1 [/td] [td] 0 [/td] [td] 1 [/td] [td] 1 [/td] [td] 0 [/td] [td] 2 [/td] [/tr] [tr][td]CSPP[/td][td] 12 [/td][td] 13 [/td] [td] 1 [/td] [td] 0 [/td] [td] 7 [/td] [td] 1 [/td] [td] 1 [/td] [td] 1 [/td] [td] 0 [/td] [td] 0 [/td] [td] 1 [/td] [/tr] [tr][td]MRPT[/td][td] 12 [/td][td] 13 [/td] [td] 0 [/td] [td] 0 [/td] [td] 0 [/td] [td] 8 [/td] [td] 0 [/td] [td] 0 [/td] [td] 1 [/td] [td] 1 [/td] [td] 2 [/td] [/tr] [tr][td]PRESENT[/td][td] 3 [/td][td] 11 [/td] [td] 0 [/td] [td] 0 [/td] [td] 0 [/td] [td] 0 [/td] [td] 0 [/td] [td] 1 [/td] [td] 0 [/td] [td] 2 [/td] [td] 0 [/td] [/tr] [tr][td]CeR[/td][td] 7 [/td][td] 0 [/td] [td] 4 [/td] [td] 0 [/td] [td] 0 [/td] [td] 0 [/td] [td] 0 [/td] [td] 0 [/td] [td] 0 [/td] [td] 2 [/td] [td] 1 [/td] [/tr] [tr][td]STRIKE[/td][td] 41 [/td][td] 51 [/td] [td] 4 [/td] [td] 0 [/td] [td] 2 [/td] [td] 0 [/td] [td] 0 [/td] [td] 0 [/td] [td] 0 [/td] [td] 0 [/td] [td] 25 [/td] [/tr] [tr][td](NEW/OLD)[/td][td] 34 [/td][td] 19 [/td] [td] 9 [/td] [td] 4 [/td] [td] 3 [/td] [td] 2 [/td] [td] 2 [/td] [td] 1 [/td] [td] 1 [/td] [td] 4 [/td] [td] 8 [/td] [/tr] [/table][/center] The first two numbers in the (NEW/OLD) column indicate that we had 34 new citizens eligible to vote for the first time in the 35th, and 19 who departed (either through three-strikes or renunciation...or renunciation by their sock puppeteer) after the elections to the 34th.
