We are improving but still have work to do

A shout by kody5 showed me something I hadn't realize😛
In the Party President elections on Tuesday, the number of wasted votes decreased substantially from the previous month. (Wasted votes defined as votes for someone other than the endorsed candidate or the enemy Political Take Over candidate.)
From the major four non-American Freedom Alliance (AFA) Parties:
Federalist wasted votes, December: 118
Federalist wasted votes, January: 30 (88 fewer)
USWP wasted votes, December: 49
USWP wasted votes, January: 17 (32 fewer)
AMP wasted votes, December: 94
AMP wasted votes, January: 35 (59 fewer)
WTP wasted votes, December: 26
WTP wasted votes, January: 30 (4 more)
Net fewer wasted votes: 175
This is a huge step in the right direction. Of the three elections every month (Country President, Party President and Congress), Party President elections are the only ones that require strategy, planning and coordination to keep us safe from an American Freedom Alliance-led hostile Political Take Over of our country.
The only tricky part of a country president election is to make sure only our unity candidate shows up on the ballot so there is no vote-splitting. There is no trick to Congressional elections on election day, so long as you make sure the top four major parties actually stay in the Top 5 overall and aren't passed by a hostile-AFA led 6th party group, like almost happened last month and we might be threatened by this month.
Party President elections are going to continue to be a critical time every month where we have to come together as a country and work together, protecting our top parties from Political Take Over.
There is still a lot of work to be done.
We need to develop more mobile voters, more voters smart enough to step up and switch parties on the 15th every month to save another party from Political Take Over.
Margin of victory in Tuesday's Party President elections:
Feds: Duncan Crowe wins by 160 votes.
USWP: Artela wins by 41 votes.
AMP: Haliman wins by 130 votes.
We The People: Mazzy Cat wins by 72 votes.
Total margin of victory: 403
Imagine what we could do with 403 more mobile voters? Not only could we keep every major party safe easily, we could also keep every small party safe as well and make sure our PTO threat becomes smaller every month.
Voting is a weapon in this game when used properly. America's biggest threat right now isn't any foreign country invading us, it's us losing control of our own country by a PTO (Political Take Over) from the AFA.
And if we can work together, we can diminish this PTO threat and go back to having normal elections, like the old days, not constantly living under threat of PTO. Those of you who don't like the Unity system? Imagine if we didn't need it anymore. It's possible, as long as we keep working together.

Undoubtedly, all working together for the same goal, we can defeat this false policy of the Take Overs.
Despite some (small) differences that may exist in the 4 major parties, all have the same goal in common, America Free. o/
Yes it went well, but are yo saying that we wasted 403 votes and that the selected candidate should only win by 1 vote and the others used elsewhere? I don't think I agree with that strat. This month was good and took a lot of work, it's going to take more work and planning to move even half of those 403 properly. However, half of that 403 is enough to secure every single 6th party, provided the votes are spred out properly. So I would not tout the 403 as extra votes, but concentrate on using perhaps 20% of those more effectivly next month.
I wasted my vote on Mazzy Cat(\o/), I guess you are only a loyal Unit-T-ist (there was once a call of the forum dwellers for me to replace the term elitest) if you wait until reset to vote. Maybe one election the Admins. will shut down the site right before reset and the Unit-T-ist would get there just desserts. I like the idea of Unit-T-ist vs. elitest, cause we all know Ajay is an just elitest squabbling with other formerly called elitest and most of use are inextricably caught in the middle.
@Hampton -- Obviously you want to win by more than 1 to be safe, but was making a point.
pop George -- Votes for the endorsed candidates are NOT wasted. Overkill at times, but not wasted. We need them.

And it's good to see things are on track to improvement 😃
A respectable improvement.
I wanna hear liggy say he's proud and horny.
That would make me giggle.
Again, the slightly spooky intelligence of Ligrreb re[emerges, in spite of the exagerrated reports of his early demise.
We are lucky to have him back.
Voting is the most sacred of weapons for the citizens of Nova Roma.
Agreed, but 2 clickers never listen
Good article Ligtreb; let's keep the government on the right track and keep the bandwagon moving.
@kody5; it is surprising to see a young eCitizen like yourself use the term 2-clicker with such disdain.
*Yawn*
Go back to being quit.
Look at my interview with Ronald Gipper Reagan http://www.erepublik.com/en/article/my-interview-with-ronald-gipper-reagan-finally-a-citizen--2196030/1/20
Good article from a great citizen, voted.
