To: People of Trinidad and Tobago and Nations of the World
Today we can finally announce, with conflicts in the USSM between the NAR, them and the UR finally dying down that democratic elections will finally take place in the savaged islands of Trinidad and Tobago, observed by the WEF. After much screening by our observers and early rounds of voting the following three candidates have been put up for the vote:
Mr. Franco Castro of the T&T Manifesto Socialist Party
Age: 56
Description: Born in Cuba in the 50’s, Franco is an authoritarian left candidate who was once the leader of a rebel fraction that supported the USSM invasion against the former ruler. Widely regarded as a popular figure in some areas of T&T, he finished a close third in the early rounds and went through, though his outspoken views against Western Policies and for the complete independence of the Caribbean in this warring world have seen him become unpopular with powerful nations.
Miss. Shayla Trinidad of the Western World United For T&T Party
Age: 39
Description: The sister of the surprise brother and sister combo that have entered the election, Shayla’s second name may suggest she is patriotic, but she is more interested in developing the country. Her focus is to become a member of the TA or Entente, and therefore open up trade routes and business opportunities – she wishes to expand the economy and provide a better, richer life for her citizens. Widely seen as the most popular Western Candidate, her finishing place in the election was a surprise second – many believed she would beat her brother.
Mr. Ravi Trinidad of the T&T Independence Party
Ages: 44
Description: Ravi is a Trinidad man born and bred, and his laid back attitude has gained him massive support with voters and a finishing spot of #1 in early rounds. His views are strong; workers rights, increasing economic strength whilst remaining totally independent and neutral to foreign affairs – and requesting that many nations keep there nose out of his business. Though, he strongly opposes American expansion, and all expansion, into the Caribbean – he believes these small countries at least deserve their independence.
Please vote for your candidate of preference.
OOC: This is only minor and not really deserving of its own thread – but I needed a poll and everything counts right? ;) If there is a draw in the votes, it will go down to the ‘peoples vote’ (though ICly it is a democratic election) in which basically I chose the winner. Please can all ESS nations vote. Bearing in mind for some this is quite important, I stress quite, as a couple have candidates put forward by them in there – and with AB’s invasion of the Caribbean starting up, there will be a difference in how an ex-rebel leader responses to these threats to a European influenced democratic (the former, probably with force). I’ve made all the candidates completely different, as I expect peoples votes will be influenced by which government type they prefer.
VOTE IS PUBLIC - to make sure all will vote, just to make you aware. Closes in two days.
