Join the new world

The Independent Council for Congressional Candidates Review met last night to come up with who should be supported for congress. We based this off how often they are active in their party, the eUS forums, and IRC. We also took into consideration how well they'd get along with other congressman and the types of arguments they make. This month the ICCCR was:

Aiden Astrup, USWP Business Affairs Director, Congressman
IanJohnLockeIV, AAP PP, Congressman
John Jay, 1st Armored Brigade Commander, UIP VP
Kyle321N, RAMROD PP, QMG, Congressman
PrincessMedyPi, Congresswoman, Head of the WC, UIP
Tiacha, Head of the DoE, FP VP

Alabama
Moishe, CvP
Outspoken and well informed Moishe is a pillar of congress. While he is usually on the dissenting side of the argument he brings exactly what congress needs, levelheaded discussion of opposing view points. He's extremely active in the forums and he's involved with almost every decision congress makes.
Other Candidates: princess84 (USWP), John Winston Lennon (Li😎

Alaska
PrincessMedyPi, AAP (USWP)
PrincessMedyPi needs no introduction. She runs the Welcoming Committee, is a former Vice President, and is one of the most active citizens in the eUSA. She is a consummate Congressional leader. Congress would be much worse if it wasn't for Medy's constant dedication and involvement.
Other Candidates: Nurofen

Arizona
Mcgivey, USWP
This is a political comeback of sorts for Mcgivey. He is a former Congressional rep and was a big-shot in the USWP several months ago. While he's been inactive of late, he's re-emerging himself in the game as we speak. He is extremely knowledgeable and an active and skilled player.
Other Candidates😃ragonknight, Sir Valaro Volcrum, ChrisDF0

Arkansas
WEAK STATE
The council found no one here strong enough to recomend for congress. Ion Ion is the incumbent, but was severely inactive, and proposed bills at times that hindered congress. It is recommended NOT to vote for him.
Running: Gregorius Maximus, Eric Victor, Ion Ion

California
AidenAstrup, USWP
California is lucky to have AidenAstrup. He's an extremely active member of Congress and is never afraid to take the hard stances. He's clashed with political leaders before in his quest to represent his state. He is an active USWP party leader and extremely involved in the USWP Wellness Center and Congressional delegation.
Other Candidates😛aaval IV, NewWorldorder

Colorado
Wade Seagrave, CvP
Wade is a member of SADD and the economic council. He is also a Platoon leader in the Army as well as a very active leader on the CVP council. Wade offers an experienced voice. He is also a go to man in the CVP: always being the first to inform the public about party news. Wade offers economic expertise which would greatly help the direction of this new Congress. Wade is active on the eUS forums and would be a great addition to congress.
Other Candidates: Meghan, badules, Patrick Reckitt

Connecticut
The council found no one here strong enough to recomend for congress. Mr. Bobo is the incumbent, but he is not active and can no be recommended to be reelected.
Running: Manuel Pereira, Rand AlThor, Mr. Bobo, Equality 7-2521

District of Columbia
ProggyPop, USWP
The current speaker of the house has done an outstanding job organizing, moderating and adding his own insight to the discussion. If reelected he's a shoe-in to continue as SoH and he has quite a few ideas that should be implemented. He's the best candidate DC can hope for.
Other Candidates: Pcwiener, Larston

Gates Schellinger, NP (AAP)
Why they'd be good congressmen: Has Congress experience, knows what he's talking about, prepared to take on the responsibilities.

Other Candidates: Chexmeister (USWP), TheBooms (Li😎, Drew023 (AAP)

Georgia: STRONG STATE
Lazor, USWP
Lazor was the major upset of last month, defeating BennDover as a practical nobody. Lazor has since been an extremely involved Congressional representative. He is an active representative and a great choice for Georgia. With that said Kenneth Sutton is also a former congressman and a very active member of the US. Georgia can not lose with either candidate.
Other Candidates: Mathew29, Kenneth Sutton

Kansas
Ansen - UIP
Proudly serving in his second term, incumbent congressional representative Ansen is a highly active member of congress. He consistently participates in congressional debates and has never missed a vote. Ansen is a highly efficient member of congress, who is always pushing forward for progress when legislation is stalling. He also brings humor to the floor, which can lighten the mood in a tense floor and help keep the camaraderie civil (sadly, something that is often lacking in congress). He is also currently the Director of External Affairs for the UIP.
Other Candidates: Jarumas (Li😎

Hawaii
Chimichonga Barbosa, USWP
Chimichonga is a long time player. Last month was his political comeback and Chimichonga has stayed involved and active in Congress since then.

Other Candidates: Lemmington Royale, Joey1601

Illinois
Aren Perry, AAP
Aren Perry is a great member of congress. He's been active in the forums and he's contributed some excelent arguements. Congress would be lucky to have him back. It should be noted that the USWP candidate is a foreigner. Please if you do not have a state to vote in, and see Aren losing, move to Illinios and vote for him.
Also running: Foreigner from USWP, do not vote for him.

Kyle is the current Congressman from Indiana. He is the current QMG for the armed forces as well as a very successful businessman.

Rhane, CvP
Rhane is very active in the halls of congress, and I believed he was actually a congressman before I looked it up.

Other Candidates: DemocratDude (AAP)

He has consistently made posts on the eUSA forums that guide members of the community toward rational decisions regarding business and public policy. The Halls of Congress are consistently filled with his participation, so much so at times that many congressional members forget that he is not an elected official.
