The Member Representative election will be held shortly after the PP elections. Any interested candidate should declare on the forums. The MR post is a great way to get involved with the party, as no prior experience is necessary, just a willingness to be active and involved.

Congressional runs for the following month are coming up! If you are interested, please stay tuned to the forums as information will become available.

The party would also like to take a moment to recognize the hard work done by our party founder, multiple term Party President, and first recipient of the 'Ol Bastard award, Joseph Dinero, who is now leaving the party to take a leadership role in the RLC. You can read his message to the Bastards here. We wish him well and look forward to working with him and his new party in the future. The Bastards though will push on, furthering the Bastard ideals of Honesty, Integrity, and Transparency.

On a personal note, I would like to thank Thedillpickl for covering the Fat Bastard last week. You may see that edition here: http://www.erepublik.com/en/article/the-fat-bastard-week-of-day-1685-2073999/1/20
