The Reala/Angelini ticket is a strong one and they have appealed to the Federalist Party by focusing on citizen services, increased communication, transparency and public interaction and the transition to V2. Both of these great citizens have long resumes, but Bradley Reala is currently the Secretary of State and Angelini is the Secretary of Defense. Bradley is a soldier in the Home Guard, Angelini is in the Marines (both support militias). Their combined experience in both the military and foreign relations could serve the US well in this sensitive post-EDEN climate.

We wish them both the best of luck and hope they find their way into the White House, elected or appointed.
POTUS Blocker

As many of you have noticed, Trick246 is 'running for President' under the Federalist Party. He has been asked to serve as a blocker and protect our elections from candidates who wish to do us harm. The mechanics of Presidential elections is somewhat confusing (and hard to find on wiki), so allow me to explain-
There are 5 available spots for candidates, and those spots go to the parties with the highest member population. If all of the top 5 parties endorse the same candidate, there are still 4 spots open. This month there were 3 main candidates running, but that left 2 open positions. Those positions were quickly filled by PTO candidates, Owner and Michael Collins. To keep these threatening candidates off the ballot, it was necessary for SOMEONE to run a blocker. The Federalists chose to be that someone.
Many thanks are due to Trick246 for stepping up when we needed him. The Federalist Party hopes to someday run him as an actual candidate and not just a blocker.
The Feds are quick to call out parties for being dickheads, but we're just as quick to give props. The UIP stepped up to run a blocking candidate, Astra Kat G. With the help of SEES, they were able to boost their member count and overtake the PTO. Also, The Democratic Republicans honored the small parties and offered to nominate CivilAnarchy on behalf of the Socialist Freedom Party. Sweet moves, guys.
In somewhat related election news- our Congressional blocker sign up form is now open for April. Please sign up to block. After you've been vetted and placed, you'll be contacted by the Federalist Party and provided with moving tickets shortly before the election. Thank you for your service!

FEDSMAXXX!!!
Feds are best.
Good luck Brangelini! \o/
Do it to it, Feds!

Many thanks to trick!
The more I read and hear about the "brangelini" ticket the more I am convinced that there is no better duo in the land!
Go Brangelini! (max!)
.......
Not really, Owner didn't stand a chance of ever making it on the ballot. The Republicans deserved to have their candidate on the ballot. Nothing honorable about this.
It is honorable PTH 🙂 You don't deserve the ballot and more than Owner does. Go Reala/Angelini and thanks to Astra Kat G and Trick!
AAP and USWP should be ashamed of themselves. One of them should have stood up and endorsed a blocker so the UIP and Sees didn't have to scramble. Shame on you guys.
Go brad! Go Feds! Go EZC 😛
votado
Tiacha, USWP can't as their PP is inactive. It'd be nice to see the AAP support a blocker, but Woxan is a defacto AAP member even though he's in his own party. (Benn Dover style, lame)
I love Mash 🙂
