Yes, the Prince has finally decided to give the common people a voice... sorta.
The bizarre and byzantine regulations regarding who can vote and who can't boil down to this:
*Must be either a member of the Professional/merchant classes or an aristocrat of some sort.
*Can not be a government employee.
There are several more rules and regulations, but those are the important ones.

Xavier Henries
Party: Blue Party
Age:54
Policies: Lowering taxes, cutting back on military expenditure, increasing government contributions to charity. Also supports relaxing current criminal laws, and making it legal to chew gum. Wants to set up a relation
Pros: Actually has some policies that were not spoonfed to him by his fellow party members.
Cons: Archmage Merrech once threatened to turn him into a toad. Accidentally called the Prince's fiance a 'trollop'. Prince Alexander hates him, and wants him to die. His own Party President hates him, and doubts he'd make a good Grand Vizier.

Humphrey Appleby
Party: Red Party
Age: 58
Policies: Increasing government size, increasing military spending, turning Roania into a dominant power in the region, maintaining strong ties with Menelmacar, becoming a member of CENNA, yet retaining chemical weapons for defense purposes.
Pros: Is well liked, by the other people in government (and isn't that all that matters?).
Cons: Cares more about government then the people being governed.

Alysanndra Ellestrea
Party: Orange Party
Age: Who knows?
Policies: Increasing government size, diverting funds from military and business towards education and health, joining CENNA, increasing ties with Menelmacar, opening more government positions to the public and elves.
Pros: Her policies are quite popular, and many elves see her as a useful balance to Merrech's maneuverings.
Cons: Said Archmage wants her to die, Kelly is concerned that the Prince might like her a bit too much...
Questions will be allowed to be asked so that foriegn nationals can better grasp their policies.
