Brief Summary of the General Election

Senate
The Senate election saw 11 candidates fighting for 6 seats. The first candidate to announce was Brick Wargrave who put on a strong showing early on and was considered a lock for the Senate however he lost momentum as more and more candidates stepped forward and his campaign buried in the scramble. Zachary Drakan, RNS Drakan, and Obito Drakan ran for reelection. Zach and RNS won, however Obito narrowly lost due to being on vacation at the time. Pepe Drakan was elected after a one month break from the Senate and Chancellery and announced that this term would be his last in the region much to the dismay of his close friends. Mytzonia Drakan was elected after returning to the region after being gone for several months, he was highly endorsed and showing great promise in the State RP. Wildeboden ran with much support after becoming an active member of the region, this is his first term. Pletamia was also elected.

Chancellor
For the Chancellor election we saw the 3rd Chancellor Regionia Wargrave face off against incumbent Chancellor Kastros Drakan. Regionia campaigned hard and constantly, basing his campaign off of the Donald Trump campaign. He addressed every issue as it came up during the election, despite all of his effort he only received one endorsement. The incumbent put far less effort into his campaign, citing his previous term as proof that he was right for the job he jokingly called his campaign '2 K/S 2 Furious'. He received nine endorsements from a wide range of people, including high profile members of the region, two of the four previous Chancellors, and many leaders from old TAR and old TAS. Kastros would go on to win by a sizable margin.

Speaker
The Speaker election saw far less excitement than the other two elections. Regionia announced his candidacy and also nominated Kastros, who accepted. Pepe Drakan announced his candidacy, however he dropped out before the election. Lastly, TNR Drakan ran as a protest candidate and was ineligible for the position. This left Regionia and Kastros competing in two election, Kastros would concede the Speaker election after having won the Chancellery.

A LOOK INTO THE STATES​

DEMOCRATIC PEOPLE’S REPUBLIC OF THE WEST​
The West, under the iron and firm hand of our glorious Supreme President Pletamia, has continued to reach new heights and surpass the other states. We are closer than ever to creating a Worker's Paradise, all have food and all have shelter. The Marshal Pletamia of the People's Militia has revealed just how strong the West is by upgrading and expanding our military to be the best. Multiple Acts have been passed by the Supreme Soviet including the Thought Crime Act and the Draconian Law Act, all of which were authored by the Supreme Leader.

BUXTON​
Buxton recently elected Keventle Wargrave as their governor after a hard fought election against Regionia Wargrave. Keventle founded the state all the way back in old TAS and seeks to repair Buxton and restore its reputation. Since the start of Keventle's term, sever bills have been proposed to the Buxton Congress. The Treason Act, proposed by CDland seeks to heavily punish and banish any would be traitors to Buxton which has been a problem in the past. The Embassy act, proposed by Governor Keventle seeks to establish an embassy system within Buxton in hopes of having better relations with the other states. There have been several other bills proposed, however are not of much worth and will likely have a minimal impact on the state. A new emphasis on the military with the Military Growth Campaign, state safety with the Treason and Immigration Acts, and map roleplay with the Buxton Map Reform legislation has placed a new focus on making Buxton the premier state in The Allied States.

THE HOLY BRITANNIAN EMPIRE​

Myztonia has in recent weeks been hailed as a great statesman for the Empire with the passage of his act the NE Corridor which sets the Empire up to have the best train system in the region.

The Allied States Government Simulation (ASG)
The Allied States Government Simulation (ASG) is a simulation of the United States Government. In this simulation, players will be taking on the role of members of congress, the presidency, and the presidential cabinet and they will be interacting with the simulated RP World. Every player will control a member of the Allied States House of Representatives where all the major issues in the game will primarily be debated. Additionally there will also be a smaller, elected Senate. Finally, we have an elected President who will appoint a cabinet.


NWP-TAS Treaty
On July 24, 2014 then President Crescellia of The Allied Republics sent Delegate Lewis and Daniel to the New Warsaw Pact to negotiate a treaty. Talks lasted for a couple months before dying off for almost a year. In June 2015 talks started again, however suddenly stopped. Talks resumed again in December 2015 when Secretary of State Free States resumed talks with the NWP, great progress was made and a revised treaty drafted however talks died off yet again. On February 27, 2016 Chief Justice CDland, on behalf of Chancellor Kastros got the talks going again. Chancellor Kastros took over the talks on behalf of TAS and both sides accepted the treaty, it is currently in both region's Senates and is expected to pass and be ceremoniously signed soon.

I wan't a part of government when it was granted statehood nor did I speak out against it. I had only returned from a leave of absence because of the merger we had. That said, it should have never been granted statehood as it was never meant to be a state, it set a bad precedent within the state system. It's currently in the process of having its statehood revoked and its territory (Canada) completely abolished. I'll be replaced with a federal capital (DC) that will never be eligible for statehood.
