First General Elections in over a century, parties request

26-11-2006, 00:44
As the Winter Elections are slated to begin within two weeks, the political parties vying for control of the Tocrowkian Reich appeal to not only their motherland, but to the International Community for support
The results of these elections will not only determine which party gains control of the Reich's Government, but obviously the International policies of our regime. Even old enemies are asked to endorse at least one of the parties, as yesterdays enemy can become tomorrows friend in the blink of an eye. Our allies in UCN are especially asked to endorse one of the parties. As the leader of UCN, the fate of not only a nation, but possibly the alliance as well hangs in the balance.

I would like to know the current state of Lady Isabella Reinhard, who we though was still the leader of the Reich. Also, I would like to know what has brought about these elections, and the mobocracy inherent in the democratic system.
Anyways, we wish it to be known that we staunchly oppose any violent communist regimes, as is expected. We do not care about peaceful ones, they are free so long as they do not attempt to undermine our domestic political systems.

Lady Isabella Reinhard continues to rule the Reich as it's Stewardess, and is associated with the Neo-Bolshevist party. As for what brought these elections on, it was a domestic decision that was simply not announced to the international community. It is party of our transition from a fascist dystopia to a near-utopia, where every human has a say in how our government is run.

We are going to support the Neo-Bolshevist Party in our voting currently. We would like to intervene and fund a new political party if possible. We are willing to fund $25 million to start a small voting block if this is permitted. We are also going to attempt to sell various political tracts at cost through standard outlets. It would be so minor that it would be more of a talking point than anything else and have no real effect on the election.

Unfortunately, at this time we cannot allow the formation of a new party. It would interfere with the elections that are already underway, and prove counter-productive to their purpose. We will, how ever, allow them next year.

The People's Republic of Sovistan strongly supports the Neo-Bolshevists, however is unable to lend financial or material support. Unless the party really needs hundreds of tonnes of complementary lead, which would really only be useful for making guttering and ammunition.
Anyway, the Neo-Bolshevists have our support.

[OOC: Erm, don't you role-play as a collective of business firms Vault 10? As if you are, shouldn't you be supporting the Capitalist Party, not the Neo-Bolshevists, who are communists? Unless of course, it is within your IC interests to back the Neo-Bolshevists.
Anyways, I gotta hit the sack right about now, but before I go.....
SUPPORT THE CAPITALIST PARTY OF TOCROWKIA, PEEPS!!!!

[OOC: Yes, we are just a group of corporations. But while we are capitalizt, we aren't anticommunist, and actually welcome the spread of communism. The capitalist market is overcrowded - the less companies, the less competition!
Or, at least, we support the spread of Hammers, Sickles, Red Flags and Russian Reversal, as they all look way better than monarchist banners or business symbolics. Give a sort of special feeling to the game.

Message to Tocrowkia
Though it was within the interests of the Imperium that the government be dominated by the CCP due to the Imperium being a theocracy we see now there is no chance for victory. So we wonder if it is possible if the Imperium could throw her support behind the Capitalist Party?

We hope that the attempts of Tocrowkia to install democracy will be long term and not a short term occurence that will enable the dictatorship that has existed in that nation for the last century to remain

Voting began late last evening, and after hours of anxious waiting, the election results are in...and they give one clear winner:
http://img81.imageshack.us/img81/1457/graph2xq0.jpg (http://imageshack.us)
With an excess of 80% of the votes, the Neo-Bolshevists have won by a landslide. Perhaps it was destiny, or perhaps it's just an example of how much the Tocrowkian people love the freedom offered by Communism. None the less, the results are clear.
The Reich will remain a bastion of resurgent Communism, and will remain the leader of the Bolshevist movement into the 21st century!

The government of Clandonia Prime does not accept this election one bit, we demand the Tocrowkian people rise up and overthrow this faux Bolshivik regime in which the capitalist party votes seem to have been ignored. This is indeed a worrying occurance and we are pressing for the international community to follow our lead in condeming this so called 'democratic' election.

Because when the results were announced, the Bolshevists had more votes than the Capitalists.
