Possibly to avoid confusion, you should make the options A, B, and C?

My vote:
1) Miestra's platform
2) Eðo's platform
3) sit out election

Choice 1: Miestra's platform
Choice 2: Eðo Grischun
Choice 3: I would rather not put one, why? Because I think that no active participation would be a dire mistake.

I'm ambivalent, and while I absolutely don't want to burn out Miestrâ, if she's willing to stand for President again, I'm more than willing to vote for her. 

Ergo and in preference order: choices 1 (Miestra), 2 (Edo), and 3.

Option 2, aka Miestrâ's platform, wins on the first ballot with six votes, or 86%, and is adopted as the new platform.

Dame Miestrâ Schivâ and Antaghla Somelier are elected as party leadership.

Thank you for your confidence, estimats Democrätsen Livereschti. And thank you Eðo Grischün for provoking this debate, which has rejuvenated our sense of purpose.

I didn't want to do it; but I feel I have to. The Free Democrats should not become one more party which had no better reason for existing than power, and evaporated when power is gone. Ours is a party of purpose, of ideology, of liberty and democracy first.

I call on all Talossans who believe in those principles - from the most die-in-a-ditch Republicans to those Monarchists who take the Organic Law and checks-and-balances seriously - to unite behind us. A grim future awaits a Talossa which becomes a one-party state where it becomes known that you have to join the ruling party to get anywhere. I've been there before - that's Talossa under King Robert I and his PC Party. If the Free Democrats stand for nothing else, we are by the grace of Allà the alternative.

Onwards to the 59th Cosa.
