ooc: Well I was going to set up a poll for this But it doesn't let me (too many options) So please vote via post. This is the first time I've run an election for my country. I came up with two choices, one do it randomly and use the RANDOM function to make up parliment. But I thought it'd be interesting to see what other ppl would vote. So when you vote you'll be representing a piece of the population in my country and I'll stick with the results of this for my RPing for the next month or so. Now a little FYI
