Do you mean add the link as your party website?

[Baron Alexandreu Davinescu]

Well, the first post says we can add a link to our party platform; our platform is on that page.  That's an option to include, right?

In case, there is concern about using the wiki

Yes we are talking about the same thing. In the party registration on the database there is a place to add a URL, and I added the Wiki as requested. Do you now want the URL from Brenier to be the official URL?

[Baron Alexandreu Davinescu]

He's in charge, so yes.

[Baron Alexandreu Davinescu]

Thank you very much, by the way!

Here is what the party registration screen looks like in case of confusion:

No concern with the Wiki, but I believe you all want the quoted link so I updated the database to reflect that.

Thank you to the Baron and Sir SoS!

Just as a friendly reminder, TODAY January 13, 2023 is the ABSOLUTE LAST DAY for any parties to UPDATE or REGISTER for the 58th General Election. Any updates received after midnight TST will be ignored.

Also, TOMORROW January 14, 2023 is the ABSOLUTE LAST DAY for Senatorial candidates registrations as well as ANY OTHER UPDATES to the election. After that point, I will be activating the election on Sunday, January 15 before noon, Pacific time (probably earlier but just in case I'm sleeping off my birthday celebrations I'll give myself a little grace!).

I would like to add the following amendment statements to the Free Democrat registration (as Secretary of the party, hopefully I am authorized to do so):

RZ19: The current process for selecting the Seneschal often results in a lot of wasted time . This amendment speeds it up without changing the outcome.

RZ27: Right now, Dandelions (children of Talossan citizens) automatically become citizens themselves. But when a parent loses citizenship, any minor children they may have keep theirs - and we can't contact them to confirm if they want it. This amendment means Dandelions must CONSENT to become citizens upon their 14th birthday.

[Mic’haglh Autófil, O.Be]

Full Party Name: Parti da Reformaziun

Party Initials: PdR

50-Word Statement: "The PdR Continues to advocate for rational responses to political issues facing the nation, and for reforms that make for a more equal society in which Talossans can participate. The difference between government before our involvement and with our involvement show that we will push for results for you."

Party Leader: Mic'haglh Autofil

Candidate list:

• Mic'haglh Autofil
• Alexandreu Promine

Party Platform URL: Click Here for the Goods!

Edit -- Statement on RZ19: "This amendment streamlines the process by which the Seneschal is chosen, and uses the same method already in place which is used to select the Tuischac'h. This commonsense reform is worth supporting."

All party registrations have been entered and finalized.

Was the PdR registration too late, or why aren't they on the ballot?

[King Txec]

They were registered in time and show as a registered party in the database. They should be on the ballot, but I've also not seen the ballot as my own was one of them that could not get sent.

I asked because the polling station posts lists only four registered parties (TNC, DIEN, FreeDem, PT) amd I was wondering if the PdR were left out deliberately or by accident.

Entirely my fault. I prepared  that posting before they registered 30 minutes before the deadline. I thought I had updated the document but I guess not. I've fixed the Witt post. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.

[King Txec]

A problem exists with the database that makes it currently unable to send ballots to anyone with a gmail account. As soon as I tried to send ballots this morning, I noticed that they all bounced back. I immediately alerted MPF and he is working on a solution.

Any citizen who contacts me via email or better still via Witt PM can request their PSC which will allow them to vote on the database.

I will alert everyone as soon as ballots are able to be emailed. My sincere apologies, as the Chancery could not have foreseen this amid all the usual preparation for the election.

Is there any way anyone can help?
