Summary of Events (What happened, in your own words): Romanoffia, despite clearly declaring his candidacy for Vice Delegate, was not listed on the ballot.

Evidentiary Submissions:Election thread, Romanoffia's Campaign Thread, General Election Thread

Comments: The Election Commission (EC) claims that the rule that they have created is that nominations must be posted on the thread named "May 2013 General Election." However, there is absolutely no rule stated anywhere that requires this. They have willfully committed election fraud by continuing to disallow him on the ballot.

As a quick note, I'd like for the Attorney General to address this matter as soon as possible, please.

Even if it were the policy of this office to respond to complaints in whatever order it desires, the criminal system is not built for quick judgments. It is built to find the truth. This office will investigate this complaint, and file charges as appropriate. Any evidence you, or any other citizen, is able to provide will be appreciated.

Understood. Thank you.

The following log is also evidence of the accused acknowledging the fact a mistake was made, yet not rectifying the mistake:

Due to the Election Commission rectifying their mistake, this complaint now has no value.

From a legal theory standpoint, the fact that a person fixed a wrong done by a criminal offence does not necessarily mean they are not still guilty. If, for example, I broke into your house and stole your TV, but then brought it back, I'd still be guilty of theft. It's the act, not the result, at least in theory.

But theory sucks. In practice, you've withdrawn your complaint and I see no reason to pursue it independently. This matter is closed.
