Candidates:

Hobo Bob and Bumble Bee Man (Standing party clone): These two plan to go along similar lines as President Uziel. Despite their humorous nicknames these two are well-educated and know what they're doing. Neither have either smoked or drank in their lives, FYI.

Kufu Mahiro II and his vice (Centerist Party): Balance civil rights, neither left or right, blah, blah, blah. All about alternatives. He's a clone of the original Kufu like Uziel was a clone of Earnest.

Lieutenant T.K. Termite and Sargeant M.J. Pest (Exterminator Party): Plans to eliminate all those darn household pests at a cheap, cheap price. Mostly about keeping Green Sun's population safe and clean. Strong connections to Roach-Busters?

Something nobody except him can pronounce. Just call 'Mr. China' and his mysterious vice-president, 'Mr. Russia' (Communist party): Since Green Sun is at 100% Income Tax rate, these two promise to use this as a booster for true Communism. Very unpopular since nobody knows who they are.

None of the above: None of them get the election and we have to start over.

This is a 'If you think they'll win' poll. Whoever wins might influence who the people DO elect, but this isn't the actual election poll.

Remember-Mahiro loves you! And your kids! Vote for him!

For some reason the people seem to like the Exterminator Party and the Standing party very much. In fact, they're dead equal in the polls in many, many newspapers. Some people are so torn between them that they are thinking of voting 'None of the above' so they won't have to decide.

Bump

Mahiro-Candidate of the people

Elections are done! There is a huge gathering outside of the Green House with Empress Natasha Equanant-Kort with the results. She open the letter and says,
"The winner of the Green Sun election is...Mr. China and Mr. Russia?"
The crowd gasped. None of them voted for those two...Mr. China shouted out in rage.
"Someone has tainted our name! Someone hacked the system!"

Seventeen hours later the real results came in.
"It's a tie between the Exterminator and the Standing party."
The crowd moaned. This meant more waiting while the empress and the Theocratic leader discussed. Another five hours passed.
"We have decided that the new president will be Hobo Bob!"
Those who voted for Hobo Bob cheered.
"But the Bublebee Man will not be his vice. Instead, Lieutenant T.K. Termite will be the vice-president. Now all of you go home and get some goddammed sleep!"
