Stephistan/Myrth, the Mod party with 27 votes! Congratulations!

However, I did not mention the runner up-prize. second place will run NS Congress.

The winner of that is Kanabia, with 21 Votes!

Kanabia, being in charge of congress, you will speak for the people of Nationstates!

Use this thread to celebrate, party, and demand a recount.

A special thanks to all those who took part in this wonderful election.

EDIT: Due to negotiations with candidates over a vice president issue, a Re-election will be held tomorrow morning. the link will be posted on this thread when ready.

Grr... why is no-one around when I am?

YAY!! Go Steph!

I didn't get a chance to vote. :(

terribly sorry... but it was a 1-day vote only-I was luckky to have it on the same day as the American election-this is the lighter side of polititcs.

oh goody our mod oppressors won, I guess fear is an affective campaign tool
*hides*

I wa too busy watching CNN not want to make the same mistakes as last year. Oh well, Torching Witches would not have won with one more vote.

Well, you're welcome to join the victory party-there's some Wine and snacks on that table over there.

the mods would never be so selfish.

the mods would never be so selfish.

Or would they? Closing down threads, fixing elections. Why, they are nothing more than Nazis.

But not everyone got to vote! It's not fair! Hanging chads! Provisional ballots! Goobedee ga!

As I said on the voting thread, MY DECISION IS FINAL.

Now accept it and move on. or i'll send the lawyers after you.

For a while the vote was very close between the mods and Kanabia. But the mods steamed ahead overnight...

Well, i'm afraid according to our rights under the *cough indiscernable mumble*, myself and Soviet Democracy are forming a coalition. As I didn't have a running mate, i believe therefore that SD has the right to merge with me and we combine our votes.

The Common Sense/Democratic Libertarian Communist party claims 30 votes :D

It was, after all, a double ticket for the mod party.

I demand a recount because of voter intimidation, double-registrations in some Nations, and the @$#(%*& hanging chads! :)

(J/k. Good jobs on the elections! T'was a great idea and it seemes that it was fair.)

It was all very fair, it's just some refuse to accept deafeat... you know who you are... :mad:

GNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNGHHHHHHHHHHH. :mad:

lol, OK then...next time...

What do I actually have to do as congress though? Anything? lol

*Grabs beer and chips and joins party*

**HAHA clicked wrong button, posted in wrong thread. excuse me :)**


Bah, I am more than a little dissapointed that there was not a wider margin for Kerry. Kerry may not be the best choice, but Bush believes he hears the voice of God for pete's sake. The voices in my head are telling me to be president in 2008.


As far as what he will do with his 4 years... more of the same, being controlled by his corporate leash holders.

He may be good for the people willing to sell their souls, but leave me out of it.


My prediction still stands that by 2012 we (the US) will befall the same fate that came to USSR.

All I can to say is "Viva La Revolution!"

GNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNGHHHHHHHHHHH. :mad:

First of all, add it to your signiture. Second, your job is to contest any of the President/Vice Presidents views if you find them unjust or unlawful.

third, enjoy the party! :D

I hereby refuse to recognise the election as valid.

Who needs a stupid President anyway... ooh... the Americans... but no one else. I guess.

4 more years of Bush :rolleyes: but thus 4 more years of Michael Moore films :p

Suit yourself. face it, you lost... :p

Suit yourself. face it, you lost... :p
I lost an invalid election... see if I care. I would have abolished precidency if I had won too

I contest the previous vote and ask for a revote. My reasoning is as followed...

The election was unfair, initially. There was no nomination of Vice Presidents. That should of been something that was organized by the leader of the election, Imperial Navy. The vote was premature. There was no true debate, there was only a campaign thread. I saw no debate thread whatsoever. This election, in my opinion, is not valid. Every party should of had their platform given in the voting thread so people could see what they were voting for. And yes, I did mention this previously in either a thread or a direct telegram to you.

I contest the vote.

I hereby refuse to recognise the election as valid.

Why? You must give a valid reason in order for your voice to be heard. Well, you have not given a valid reason this whole campaign, so why do it now?

Who needs a stupid President anyway... ooh... the Americans... but no one else. I guess.

So you were running so there would be no President?

Might I ask where you were during the first and second revolutions in the General Forum against the General Forum Royalty? If I remember correctly, I was a high ranking officer in the first one. The second one I organized. I have a proven record of defending the people. Where is yours?

You did NOT bring this up earlier. This vote was fair-the result would have been the same anyway. request denied.

I did mention it specifically that there should be the platform put next to the candidates name. If I remember correctly, I believe I said that it should be in the campaign thread, not the voting one. I also stated it in the campaign thread. I will go back to verify and quote it here. A lack of knowledge of the candidates and a lack of VPs causes this election to be invalid. I thought this would happen, but next thing I knew there was an election thread.

Edit: I am now running for President.

Secondly, maybe you could put the political platform in your first post so everyone can see it when they first join? And edit it as the candidate sees fit.

And to Legless. Even so, not everyone has your tolerance level. I personally am annoyed by people who do nothing but flame and think their arguements are valid. They are annoying, because they consistantly flame. Those people should be warned and there be a set of firm rules (not extremely strict, more relaxed than strict) that would control things that like that deter people from coming to the forums. It makes the forums a lot more enjoyable of a place, rather than having to sift through spam and flames or simply ignoring it.

Check it. First page of the campaign thread (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=366904).

You could have telegrammed me over this before the election... I will take in these facts and decide wether to turn the results over or not... If I can find a good reason, I will name you and Kanabia winners... But I need to think about it...

I do not believe that would be the best way. I believe there should be a Vice President Nomination Thread. I would like a re-vote. I am not asking to be named the winner as the running mate of Kanabia, I am asking for a re-vote. A announcement of a winner without a new vote would not be fair either.

Oh, alright. I'll hold a new vote starting tommorrow morning... and you wish to run alongside Kanabia?

Oh, alright. I'll hold a new vote starting tommorrow morning... and you wish to run alongside Kanabia?

Before we jump into another vote, you should probably telegram every candidate to see if they are alright with their ticket (whether they want a VP or not) and notify them of the situation. Others should be able to contest a new vote, that would only be fair.

I'll allow people to choose a vice president overnight... but I fthey don't reply before morning, I guess I will have to go ahead with the new vote.

Now to do some telegrams...

Congrats, Stephistan and Myrth!

Victory is yours!

The results ARE fair!

Law-ninjas....AAATTTAAACCCCKKK!!!

I expect the re-election will turn out the same... but i've had SOOOO many complaints... I've given in.

Well, i'll run with Soviet Democracy if we're doing a re-vote. We're thinking up a name for our "party", lol.

(By the way Imperial Navy, you should have guessed this would happen ;))

Didn't you just say in your other thread that you hate politicians? So you hate everyone who was running in the election that you yourself set up?

Alright... telegram me your answer and i'll add it to the list in the morning...

Kerry has conceded defeat, by the way, so our election has been full of more scandal! :D

These guys arent polititcians... they're doing it for fun.
