RPI for Speaker of the Regional Assembly
Hello my fellow citizens!
I am [me], and I am running to become your Speaker of the Regional Assembly. I am sure some of you know me as a Deputy Speaker, and also a Director of Home Affairs. Hopefully, with your support, I can achieve such a prestigious position as Speaker.
Onward to the campaign:
Why am I running for Speaker?
When I first arrived in the North Pacific, I was utterly overwhelmed. There was so much opportunity, and so many ways to get involved. I didn't know where to start. I happened to join the forums in February, when there was quite a bit of turmoil in the Speaker's Office following Lord Nwahs' disappearance, and a special election for Speaker was held, which current Speaker Bootsie won. Applying to become Bootsie's Deputy Speaker was the best thing I have done so far in TNP. Now, more to the reason why I am running: I absolutely love being a Deputy Speaker, and if I could become the Speaker, that would be amazing. My love for the Speaker's Office and the Regional Assembly would keep me working hard as Speaker.Why should you vote for me?
When I first became a Deputy Speaker, I wasn't entirely sure how everything worked. Now, I firmly believe that I am capable of all the responsibilities of the Speaker. When the rolls fell apart and became extremely out of date, I worked long and hard to remedy that, and I will always put that same great amount of effort into my endeavors as Speaker. I am very active in the Regional Assembly, and I understand the voting procedure, proposal procedure, and all other aspects of the legislative process. The Speaker is also charged with the duty of updating the laws of the North Pacific; I can guarantee that I will update the laws in a timely manner after a bill's passage/signing. During Bootsie's last leave of absence, even though Elegarth was the Acting Speaker, I took on much of the Speaker's responsibilities and worked hard to keep the RA intact and running how it should.You can be sure that during my term I will devote my time to the Regional Assembly and to guaranteeing its smooth operation, and that I will constantly be updating the rolls and keeping them up to date. You can also be sure that I will work hard to keep the laws of the North Pacific up to date at all times.
Other information:
- Deputy Speakers: If elected, I will be accepting applications to fill the position(s) of Deputy Speaker. I am not entirely sure how many I will have this term, but time will tell. Also, if Alta wants, I would love to have him as a deputy.
- I plan to work on ways to increase the RA activity and encourage the citizenry to propose and discuss legislation.
- There is the issue of votes in the Regional Assembly being discounted for not following the OP of the vote. I would love input as to how the public wants this to be dealt with, if, at all, they feel there needs to be a change. Please feel free to offer your opinion on this in this thread.
Final words:
I wish to extend my thanks to Bootsie for introducing me to the Speaker's Office. Without you, I wouldn't be here.I also wish to thank the citizens of the North Pacific for considering me as a candidate to become their Speaker.
I would be extremely grateful if, below, you all could give me feedback on how you think the Speaker's Office and the Regional Assembly can be improved. The input of my fellow TNPers is of extreme importance to me, and is greatly appreciated.
I thank you all for your time and consideration in this election, and hopefully together we can make the Regional Assembly a great and active legislature. Please do ask me any questions below.
Thank you,
[me]
