I get what you are trying to do here, but labelling dissenters as "traitors" isn't going to improve the NPA's numbers, performance, or morale. Conscription is going to be a logistical nightmare and political suicide for any administration that attempts to do it. A massive recruitment campaign...

Massive political blowback aside, a draft is mechanically impossible on NationStates because conscripted citizens can simply choose not to show up or defect to another region.

Not to contest the results of the election (since it's obvious), but I'm curious why the number of valid ballots is 57, because 53 candidate votes + 8 abstain votes = 61 valid ballots, and there are no discounted ballots reported by the EC. Is this a mistake, or does the EC count valid ballots...

I second the motion for an immediate vote.
