"...And in other news, the New Moralite party has announced their candidate, Edmontus benedict. A rather strange choice, what about you Beatrix?"
"I think he was the obvious choice, bringing a younger, more vibrant taste of the party."
"Indeed, we'll have to see how all of this turns out. That's all tonight folks, don't forget to tune in tomorrow!"

The New Moralite party:
Candidate: Edmontus Benedict.
Policies: Reverse the Human act of '13, as it bars any creatures in the future that may gain sentience from voting, AI included. Change the primary weaponry of the Moralite fleet from Rail Guns to Coil Guns, for the expensive Rail replacements. Shrink the Moralite fleet, and pay for genetic experiments, in part at least.

Stances on important issues:
Taxes: Keep the taxes exactly where they are.
Propesita situation: Wait it out, make small rescue missions to any human radio broadcasts coming from the planet.
Moralite fleet: Shrink it, recall some of them back to Concuxcism Plagiarus for defense reasons.
Space travel licenses: Non-intervention, as usual.
Gun limit: I, for one, oppose the three hundred per household gun limit.
Voting on other planets: All those in a province, let them vote!

Age: Twenty-three.

Bio: Born back on the homeplanet, just three years before the escape to the stars, he was raised mostly on Noctisdivu. At age 16, he joined the Moralite fleet and spent quite some time on "The Murder" as Captain. However, at the age of twenty-two he suffered a serious injury that caused him to be dismissed from service. Serving as mayor of a small town on Noctisdivu for four consecutive terms, he announced his resignation from mayor, and that he was nominated by the New Moralite party as their candidate.

"... Also, The Liberal Morality party has announced their candidate, Lucius Antony, longtime governor and soldier."
"I don't know about this choice, with Edmontus being a moderate as well, the difference in policies might be slim, and it Lucius' military record and experience might win out over Edmontus."
"We'll see soon enough, but of course, there are several parties who have yet to announce their candidates. In other news, famous criminal 1314 has not been seen for days..."

The Liberal Morality Party:
Candidate: Lucius Antony.
Policies: Keep the Human act of '13, as it prevents someone from programming an AI to vote for their candidate of choice, as it was intended. Increase Military R&D in infantry deployment. Maintain restrictive anti-immigration laws.

Stances on important issues:
Taxes: Keep taxes low.
Propesita situation: Wait it out, go back to the planet in twenty years.
Moralite fleet: Keep the fleet as a mainly support role while the infantry do the real fighting.
Space travel licenses: Read my lips; NO!
Gun limit: There should be a gun limit of three when going out in public.
Voting on other planets: All those on another planet, who are Moralite citizens should be allowed to vote, province or no.

Age: Forty-six.

Bio: Born to a Moralite family with a long military history, he was raised believing he would join the army as an officer and serve honorably in the Moralite army. However, one of the many Moralite civil wars sprung up, and turned him into a guerrilla fighter after the nuke was dropped on Pug city, killing his family while he was off speaking with the former president. After the war was over, he joined the Moralite army and served in several mission that are still classified today. After they left CM, Lucius was one of the first to start training new recruits to drop from orbital heights to the planetside. He served six terms as governor on several provinces in Noctisdivu.

"This just in, the Communist Party Of CM has announced their candidate, one 'Karl', apparently he had his name legally shortened and changed, and refuses to reveal his real name."
"I've never heard of him before."
"Neither have I."

Communist Party of CM:
Candidate: 'Karl', real name unknown.
Policies: Create a corporate tax, create a minimum wage, institute martial law.

Stances on important issues:
Taxes: Tax all corporations and non-state buisnesses heavily, unless they institute equal pay, and equal work practices.
Propesita situation: We cannot leave our comrades to die, and we need to rescue them ASAP.
Moralite fleet: Increase it's size, and create some prison space vessels.
Space travel licenses: To be instituted immediately.
Gun limit: Only the workers of the state should be armed.
Voting on other planets: Only the workers should be allowed to vote, no matter where they are.

Age: unknown, around middle age.

Bio: Unknown.
"He sounds like a real nutcase."
"Hard to argue with that."

"Well, well, the Moralite Republic party has started back up! And they've announced Sextus Caesar as their candidate!"
"I haven't seen the Moralite Republic party in years! And Sextus Caesar of all people!"

Moralite Republic party:
Candidate: Sextus Caesar
Policies: Ban the death penalty. Allow people free rides on the Moralite fleet, but only if the fleet is already landed and has a destination.

Stances on important issues:
Taxes: Institute a 1% gun tax.
Propesita situation: Nuke certain parts of the planet, send in clean-up crews to clear the radiation, finish off Infected, and rescue survivors.
Moralite fleet: Expand the fleet to have more defensive interceptor weaponry.
Space travel licenses: Only if twenty or younger. Everyone else does not need a special license.
Gun limit: No limit, but an extra 1% gun tax for every twenty guns.
Voting on other planets: No strong opinion.

Age: Thirty-one

Bio: Born in a Moralite family during the times of isolation, he has little memory of his younger years before the escape. He has served two terms as a senator, and one as a High moralite Senator, as well as six years as mayor of several Province capitals, and governor of Noctisdivu for two years.

"Well then, we have the Democratic Morality party. Never a poular one despite getting all of their issues from the polls."

The Democratic Morality party:
Candidate: Tiberius Miles
Policies: Anything a majority of the people want.

Stance on important issues:
Same.

Age: 16

Bio: Born to a Moralite family on Noctisdivu, he rightfully claims he is the only candidate in the race born on one of these planets (True), but has been criticized for his lack of substance and experience.

"I've always found them to be shallow."
"It sounds like they'd dissolve the Senate if they had a chance."
"I wouldn't doubt it."

"And next we have... Oh God..."
"What is it?"
"It would seem that a bunch of Moralites have gotten onto the internet and created 'Teh Moralite 133t partay'."
