AHSCA Congressional Elections
The time has come for all Islanders to experience democracy and have their voices heard in their Congress. This small experiment was done the first time over a year ago with the selection of a village head, or night-watchman. It soon evolved into a fully democratic election on the islands.
As new parties have assembled to represent their fellow islanders a compromise has been reached. In the short history of AHSCA's union progress, the leaders chose their fellow delegates to come to Congress with them. Now it's time the people get to chose.
Parties and their reps:
Current Sitting Parties
Current Majority Party: National Islander Party
Current Seating: 15
Seats for grabs: +20
Total from Victory: 35 Seats
Lead Delegates:
Miu Kawasaki (Aurora)
The current incumbent representative and majority speaker of the Congress, Kawasaki is a moderate conservative who want's to show strong family values by helping parents invest in their children's future, by allowing state funds to send them away to be educated, allow them further economic and carer opportunities and to maintain the health and welfare of orphans.
Noted Legislation: Drafter of the Constitution/Declarative of Independence
State Sovereignty Act-Allows each island to maintain their respected sovereignty while still abiding by the Federation.
Embassy Island- Allocated and approved funding and construction of the Embassy Island.
Mokan/Imperial Base-Allowed the nations of Mokostana and Imperial to establish military outposts.
Malene Kura (Hoshino)
A strong believer in more international expansion, hopes to double the size of the Embassy Isle and unite AHSCA with alliances. Centrist in position.
Minority Party: National Lesbian Party
Current Seating: 11
Seats for Grabs: +35
Total from Victory: 46
If this party is elected it will become the new Majority Party.

OPEN LETTER
From the desk of Andras Lasarkis, Secretary to the Crown of New Chalcedon.
To our friends in the AHSCA Union,
Whilst the Empire of New Chalcedon finds much to admire in the National Lesbian Party, and would be quite willing to co-operate and aid a NLP government in implementing its platform, the Empire finds that the policies of the NIP are generally more sensible.
Whilst we do not make a habit of interfering, even indirectly, in the internal affairs of other States unasked, we are quite happy to state preferences, and have done so.
Kind regards,
Andras Lasarkis,
Secretary to the Crown.

From the NIP of AHSCA
To: The Nation of Chalcedon
We have noted your moral support to the NIP and as we believe in the fundamental values of democracy, we are happy you have stated your opinion and belief with out any vicious mud-slinging. This is our first major election for the AHSCA islands and we are kind of wining things, but if anything we are working as different parties to be united and not divided.
Thank you so very kindly for your support, we hope whoever wins the election, we can all still cooperate on the international stage.
NEWS FEEDS
Everyone Must Vote, Shino Says
As the elections continue a new issue has been raised by all contending parties, how to get people to vote. Current AHSCA constitution grants the rights of voting for anyone aged 13 (or believed time of puberty) however as a good amount of the population is illiterate, the issue of how to ensure everyone who want's to vote, be given the chance to vote has come up in the process of the debates and democratic process. Shino's solution, she and every other island leader will assist those who cannot, and encourages everyone else to do the same. "I was frighted I wouldn't get a vote," Alkei of Corona said. "I can't read or write, but it's important to me, who represents me, but with my neighbors helping me I can." In addition, photographs of the candidates are placed on the ballot, those who can't write or read can place a clear thumb print of ink on the picture. Ballots and polling booths are being guarded around the clock by the Island Militia forces to ensure no voting fraud is committed. Penalty for attempting a second vote is a one-day jail sentence.
