New Era - De Facto PP Election Results
Mr Woldy
NE PP Results.
Hello all,
Over the past few days, NE have been running a primary in order to decide who shall represent the party and act as ‘de facto’ PP. The candidates (who were asked to come forward a day before) were:
General Marley
Michael Ludgate
Super Llama
FightAndProduce
Goku Jones
Kostic Bojan
Surferdude
Lord.Wellington
Dartheleven
NE members were then asked to select their first and second choice candidates on the following form: http://tinyurl.com/NewEraPPPrimary which included manifestoes where applicable.
The poll was open for two days, and the results are now in. Note that those who voted for the same secondary and primary candidate had their secondary vote removed.
Goku Jones was a clear winner, though Michael Ludgate and General Marley put up stiff competition. As such, I have invited Goku to form an ‘NE Council’ with Marley and Michael, and shall support them in any way they like their operating and managing of the party.
I have faith in them to lead the party, Michael and Marley are both NE members who have been somewhat isolated from the limelight but who have good intentions and drive, and Goku (someone who I’m sure you all have heard of), was recently attacked by ex-NE leaders for admitting the mistakes NE had made and for proposing changes to NE’s structure and attitude. Further communications from NE shall come from them, as I effectively hand over leadership to the Council.
I shall encourage the council to run the party in the most inclusive and transparent way possible, a large failure under the previous leadership, and likewise would like to warn them not to encourage the development of another cult of personality the likes of which we saw develop around Dapper.
Although it is not my place to influence policy, I would also encourage the new party leadership not to maintain dogmatic rhetoric which polarises the political climate and instead to engage with other parties and politicians in a productive way that allows room for reasoned debate.
The next steps are to organise mass party messages and methods of communication, and to organise the Congress list. I would like to remind NE members that all parties are subject to government regulation in their party lists, and my role in the elections remains to ensure that potential risks or PTO’ers are not ran. The Council however, will have complete license to form a Congress list and to organise their candidates, and I shall ensure that they are ran as per the council’s wishes - with the obvious exception of aforementioned threats.
Good luck o7
Thanks for reading,
Woldy.

"Although it is not my place to influence policy [ahem], I would also encourage the new party leadership not to maintain dogmatic rhetoric which polarises the political climate and instead to engage with other parties and politicians in a productive way that allows room for reasoned debate."
just, lol
I encourage all parties to do that, if it helps
I'd start with TUP
Yeah Sven it's me, do you really think this is going to happen haha
Sterling work King Woldy \o/
One thing I have known from my dealings with you is that you are straight down the line impartial.
13 votes in total, if this was a real election 4 people would have decided the winner. Pretty stupid if you ask me, just goes to show the party was full of multis.
Fact is "Vendetta" is the heir of the New Era party and this is just a corpse. Having two "New Era" parties in the top 5 is the worst possible outcome of all of this, and bolstering it higher in the ranks is a mistake. Admit the party is now basically a puppet and move on.
You are right Iain, let's disband New Era so that all of those players move into Vendetta #sarcasm. Because having no party left is just the thing Don needs to convince them all to move ...
You appear to have no understanding of diplomacy or strategy, but since you got PTOed yourself this makes sense.
All 13 of the votes. Vendetta is just a bunch of multis atm and it'll be straight out the top 5. Leaving a top 5 party in your treacherous hands would be just as bad as having one led by Don.
Not as bad as one being in your hands, coming in to flame a positive ATO thread.
wasn't 4 the number of people who backed you in the forums before you were declared TUP's official candidate
BURNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN
No
Jockson all over the place haha. I love all this potato fuss.

NE is now effectively inactive - no point in mincing my words.
o7 to Woldy for his fairness though.
"all parties are subject to government regulation in their party lists"
Totalitarianism at its finest
not like the Goverment can do a great deal about it though...
Good to see positive things for New Era. I hope they can build a party based on the policy and ideas they joined for without the cult of personality.
Good luck to Goku, Marley and Michael!
"The Council however, will have complete license to form a Congress list and to organise their candidates, and I shall ensure that they are ran as per the council’s wishes"
This situation is such a mess now, you or anyone for that matter should not mess in the politics of any other party, basically your saying that the people of New Era can choose their own congress list but if you don't agree then they don't get a say, your attempting to be the good guy but IMHO it comes across as the opposite.
Whilst I strongly oppose what you have done I do understand why you did it but as I mentioned before your wasting your time as proven by the new party instantly gaining top 5 status under a new name whilst having their accusations of the Government dictatorship being proven correct, you should end this mess and be content that you destroyed what was the New Era as your now fighting the same enemy but just under a new name whilst the rest of the UK including my party are being sacrificed as we are now witnessing two partys who you would class as hostile in the Top 5 instead of the 1, where will this end and how long do you expect the good people in the game such as Huey to stay around and accept that they and their partys are just pawns in the battle of the so called Good and Evil of the eUK.
You need to find an alternative solution that involves more discussion and democracy than dictatorship.
Sorry to elaborate but as an example if my party is outside the top 5 on congress election day then people like myself can not stand for congress unless we switch partys, surely this is a fundamental flaw in the logic of these so called friendly PTO's, lets make a better compromise and get the people involved together to find an alternative solution.
huh?
Dont worry maurice. The ATO measures do not stop with the PP elections. Read the vCP update: http://www.erepublik.com/en/article/-vcp-ato-round-two-of-the-ato-effort--2401177/1/20
WRP will hopefully be able to run its own candidates.
Its not like it came as a surprise that Dapper would move all his paid for members and multi accounts into a new party.
We only have one threat in the Top 5 at the moment, seeing as New Era Congress list will be set by Woldy.
The PP elections where just the first battle of the war. You fail to understand that with Dapper it is very much all or nothing. You can't reason with him, you can't barter with him. His entire game is taking down TUP. Only way he will halt what he is doing is if we give in to what he wants, and that is him as the 'new Keers'.
No one is happy that it came to this. No one wanted it to come to this. Dapper and Co were given chance after chance to proof they had eUK interests at heart rather than their own. He does have a point in some of things he says, but the way he goes about it, his actions, his words are all wrong.
Whispering sweet nothings into the ear of Dapper will do nothing. All he wants is to swap a TUP/Keers dictatorship for a Dapper dicktakership...
I think the result actually needs to be looked at.
Looking at the result. Votes have been added when they was made without giving there authentic persoanlly codes. These Votes should have been voided.
And also people have voted like http://www.erepublik.com/en/citizen/profile/2370012
who are not even in the party http://prntscr.com/3l487h ( Hence why no code was given )
This would actually mean the result would be different. So if your trying to convey a open and fair election for once then i think you have failed and Fight&Produce should actually going by your results be declared the winner
Fiasco.
Good work Mr Woldy, and good luck to Goku, Michael and Marley.
It seems this party is far from moribund .
I really wished you guys had shown any level of activity in the party before this hostile takeover.
Had that been the case I know who would of been running it today, under the full support of all the guys!
it takes little effort for a pp who actually cares about listening to set up systems of involvement for party members
This party is not even top 5 anymore. Completely irrelevant now.
