Why has every other party got boring elections again? Give your members a choice like the Spamicans.

The only real choice is between you and Woldy. The rest are just wasted votes. I suspect some of the 'candidates' will not even vote for themselves. One think youdo have though is the record for the PP eleected with the smallest %age of the valid vote

Bit rude to call people putting themselves up for election as 'wasted votes'. Is that what you tell people in TUP they are so that they don't run against you?

They are not seriuos candodates like you running for CP. What percentage of the vote did you get when you asked your party to endorse you as the candidate? Or did you not care what your party members thought of it?

Nah I didn't give a shit

Don't blame me, I voted for Kodos

Well at least we now know what Sambo223 thinks of Spamican Party members Quote " I didn't give a sh*t" an interesting manifesto

Every Spamican candidate is a very serious candidate

I remeber when i wasnt counted as a serious candiate next thing i know i was PTOing the party *shrugs*

Someone is trying to PTO the Spamicans! Keith, can you send some more TUP members over next month to deal with it?

i am a real candidate please vote for me

I'm ready to win another election

Starting to feel an Anti-spamican vibe from this paper that is a shame.

Not really If your party leader says this "Why has every other party got boring elections again? Give your members a choice like the Spamicans."
You make your turnout an interesting aspect ofthe election... What would your headline be?

Something along the line of "UKRP fight back big surge in turnout"

Was still the most exciting election even with the turnout.

Thanks for the suggestion Spygon but UKRP getting 2.7% more turnout than TUP is hardly noteworthy. It could have been Keithunder gets more than 10 times more votes than Sambo223.

I fixed th headline for you Sambo223. thanks for your suggestion

You literally ran unopposed and 25% of your party still didn't vote for you

@Sambo223 I am quite happy that 75% of my party bothered to vote for me even though I would still have got elected if noone did. On the other hand 88% of your party members did not vote for you .. but then you have already explained how you feel about your party members!

But their last turn out was 54% to turn that around to 77% in one month is noteworthy. But i guess you dont keep up to date with these things.

Spamicans turnout was 91.7% last time down to 58.8% a much bigger difference!... The point is UKRP never boasted about how interesting their election was .. I didn't boast about that for the TUP...yet every party which had less 'interesting' than the Spamicans.. Looks like the Spamican party members themselves were not that interested

Classic TUP mudslinging - Spamicans are the eUK's hub of activity

How come in that case did the hub of activity with the most exciting election manage the lowest turnout by quite a %age margin? Please explain that to me, or am I missing something?

@Keithunder
A more interesting fact in terms of this month's vote is that the number of responses to the results is 350% more responses than the usual party vote article and the number of pointless "thanks Keith" and "v + c" is down by a whopping 98% (Douglas and MedalsStolen28 aside).

Got to give the Spamicans some credit - their elections results might be down by one measure but certainly up in terms of making your article seem interesting.

Lol @Mr Knee .. I did a bit of turd shining there 🙂

Who tf voted for me I was just trying to win some of Rory's cash.

Keith's struggling with the numbers, he's been doing this for a while now. Rather than do an analysis of the potential for any one of the candidates to win in Spamican elections - 2 votes, you'd need 10 times that to still have pro mudslinger KUP running TUP; we get a below par effort of 'look over there at the something' To which I say, indeed, look at the not perfect thing with all your effort and ignore the wasteland around it.

So you are saying Spamicans are bad for being a mid sized party with loads of candidates?

I am not struggling with the numbers.. Just trying to make them a bit more interesting with election where everyone got reelected. Indeed the Spamicans have the record for the lowest %age of the vote win for a PP together with the most number of candidates (10) beating the previous record last month (9)

@Mr Woldy I did not say anyone was bad.

You seem rather upset at democracy though

I am not at all upset about democracy. I employ it all the time as PP of TUP. Who we support for CP the order of our congress list and any other decisions we make are decided by a democratic vote of our members. Looks like you are the one upset with democracy. As PP you don't consult your members at all.In fact you don't give a sh*t about what they think! Still I got 75% of the electorate in a boring election .. you only manged 12% 🙂

Yes because we had choice

So what choice did your members have when you nominated AMD. for CP?

No one has complained so far. I mean I don't think Aaron has even decided if he wants to run. He's just there for banter purposes for now.

So AMD. is not a serious candidate? If you believe in democracy why not give your party members a vote? You could even have 10 candidates and use the alternative vote this time?

Yeah, might do. Still like a month until the election. Very common for placeholders

"So AMD. is not a serious candidate?"

Even when taking it seriously, AMD is never a serious candidate. When in the PCP, half of his "taking the game seriously" tended to be AMD accidently hitting a button.

He's very serious about accidentally pressing the wrong buttons though

So Spamicans are actually breaking records!

True!

In more than one way!

Records are mosdt number of candidates for a PP election, lowest %age vote for an elected PP. This month lowest turnout in a PP election for that month.. Last month highest turnout for that month in a PP election
