Term 1 - Election for Public Defender of the Court

[OfficialDeity]

I regret not getting here earlier and being able to vote in all the election, but I'm glad I was able to vote in the two very close judicial election.

I do find it a bit odd that the Presidental race was barely contested yet a free for all was fought for judges seats.

Our judiciary is usually a circus act. It's perfectly normal...

Or that the person currently winning this election made exactly one contribution to the electorial debate - he accepted the nomination.

indeed.

he self-nominated and accepted it.

In Stilgar's Defense he did not self-nominate; also his absence is mainly his internship was over this month and he is moving something like 150km.

Congrats to Stilgar08 for his election to the office of Public Defender! Easily one of the most impressive, last second comebacks I've seen - down 6 votes with a few scant hours to go and pick up 7.

Best of luck!

Wow, I have never seen that happen before...
Congrats Stilgar08!

 

[Blkbird]

More than incredible coming-from-behind. Congratulations Stilgar!

Official action by the Censor: Stilgar08 wins the position of Public Defender of the Court; welcome to the Bench.


As an aside this election was Very close.

A stunning outcome.

 

[Chieftess]

Yet another down to the wire finish!

Our judiciary is more exciting than the other positions, apparently...

Congats on the astounding last minute win. You surely must know you target demographic. I hope to give you another close race in terms to come.

Wow, if this was a real political election people would be yelling its rigged; instead it is just a fascinating turn of events!
Congrats!

 

[koondrad]

I hate to be a spoilsport, but this is EXTREMELY unusual. A come from behind victory for a candidate who hardly campaigned? Look at the vote total - 54! The average for the other elections was about 45. I think there's some foul play involved.

 

[ravensfire]

Unusual, but nothing that I worry about. New blood is good, and Stilgar08's proved himself to be quite sharp.

I think there's some foul play involved.

We could get the mods or TF to look at who voted for whom.
