7th General Election of Lecistan
OOC THREAD

Go to IC Thread

Hi there! Welcome to the 7th general election of Lecistan! Roleplay as a political party emerging in the unstable and rocky political climate of the Grand Duchy of Lecistan!

What do I do?
You can create a political party to roleplay as. Your end-goal is to gain enough votes to gain representation in the Royal Chamber. You can do this by RPing party conventions, debates, creating posters and flyers, releasing your platform, and, of course, having fun!

How do I create a party?
It's simple! Just fill out the application below, and post it in the thread! I will translate your party's name (and if you wish, party leaders) into Lec, and you can even create a logo if you wish!
NOTE: If you are RPing as a party, especially a left-wing one, you may wish to tread carefully. Lecistan is very much a right-wing dictatorship, and the ruling government will do anything to stay in power.

Code: Select all

I'm hoping that I'm a bit more successful than them, seeing that they seem to hold between zero and a handful of seats at most levels of government.
