Why can't I post in the election Forum?

[Andromeda Islands]

Why am I prevented from posting on certain boards?

 

[Sydia]

You need to join the Regional Assembly.

 

[Andromeda Islands]

OK, Thanks.

What does that involve?

(never mind, I found it)

 

[Andromeda Islands]

How long does a nation have to be in the North P. before it can become the delegate?

I've been here 5 years and I've never been delegate.

 

[Andromeda Islands]

What I was asking is whether there is a legal requirement?

 

[Andromeda Islands]

Ator People,
We will support you for delegate if you support our agenda for Peace.

 

[Ator People]

Ator People,
We will support you for delegate if you support our agenda for Peace.

I'm flattered, but I quite enjoy being Vice Delegate at the moment.

The legal requirement, as far as I know, is that you have to be a member of the Regional Assembly.

 

[Andromeda Islands]

Assuming that I can resign at my pleasure, I will join the Regional Assembly.

 

[Flemingovia]

Agenda for peace? I did not know we were at war? Are we?

 

[Andromeda Islands]

Then let's keep it that way. OK.

 

[Andromeda Islands]

Is it possible to run as a write in candidate?

 

[Flemingovia]

no, it isn't possible to run as a write-in candidate.

 

[King Durk the Awesome]

wtf. worst tart in a while.

 

[Andromeda Islands]

no, it isn't possible to run as a write-in candidate.

Well that is very very very very undemocratic and must be changed.

 

[Andromeda Islands]

We would like to know, by the way, What document prohibits write ins? We haven't found it in the Bill of Rights or Constitution.

The tenth article of the Bill of Rights speaks of a right to vote. Such a right is meaningless if it is limited in any way. Disallowing writes ins limits it in a very basic way, because without the right to write in you might as well live in a dictatorship. The right to write in is basic to the right to vote. The whole point of voting is to have a say in how a nation is run. Without the right to write in, you have no say in how a nation is run, because what is to stop the nation from chosing two candidates whose platforms are identical?

I like you, lets revolt togeather.

Topic moved to the Delegates office. This has nothing to do with the revival.
