The Smoke Clears

General elections are over, and this paper congratulates President Dishmcds on his second presidential victory.
We also congratulate Emerick and the whole Libertarian party on their congressional victory. Just 11 hours earlier they trailed both the Gamefaqs and the eRepublikans by a substantial margin. However they closed this gap and eventually overtook both of them.
Perhaps the most surprising turn of events today was the strong showing by the USWP. Just a few weeks ago this party was nearly non-existent in terms of members. After a struggle with the Democratic Party, the USWP came out on top with a one point lead, taking the 4th place position.
We continue to hope for the prosperity of eUSA and send our congratulations to all the new congressmen and congresswomen.

So, I guess you didn\'t see the same thing I did with the congressional votes? See my post here: http://www.erepublik.com/forum-topic-42991-110.html (not the hour long one, the one before that)
Anyways, yeah, we pulled through pretty well dispite being in 3rd almost all day. Latecomers are awesome lol
And congrats to the USWP and especially Roby for pulling the party together so well. Why, less than a week after the party elections, the old party president pm\'d me, asking to merge the two parties. I turned him down because I didn\'t think that our ideologies coincided very well, and then they come up like this. It\'s amazing.
Also I came pretty close to the half of Dish\'s votes...a victory in my book
The Libs overtaking Congress with their number advantage to me is not a surprise, although I am anxious to see what they\'ll actually do with it. I have tried for a week and a half to put some sort of Congressional announcement system with Speaker of House and all together, but Libs included those addresses and whatnot have been really hard to get people to respond to.
Thanks to everyone who voted. Now I have work to do, so you should see an article fairly shortly.
I noticed the congressional votes actually earlier in the day. The percentages and all of that changed sometime around noon for some reason. The PiP went from their original 5% to the 3% they are at now. Considering it happened hours before the final results came in, I\'m not sure its connected. I have no clue why it all changed that early though.
I think the power hasn\'t shifted yet, although I\'m not sure why it didn\'t. This is my first election so I\'m not sure how that works. Maybe the admins want to review the results or something.
After reading that, I see I\'m not sure of about 70% of what I wrote!
Weeeee!
I think we have a good active Libertarian congress now
lol......it\'s late
If you do Emerick, then how\'s about you work on gathering the emails for them as I requested two weeks ago?
Congratulations *bitter* 😛
