Welcome to both! OP has been updated.

I encourage people to start proposing sections of a charter. One person doesn't have to write the whole thing.

I wish I'd remembered to look through at what we'd named some senators. For instance, the Democrat from New York should be Cohen, as she's been brought up frequently. Let me put together a diagram of what the incoming Senate will look like. I mean, I thought Kryil was a guys name, but if it's a gir...

41 Democrats, 59 Republicans. That's a net Democratic loss of 9 seats, but mostly in red states. They defended 13 seats successfully, but I don't think they flipped any. If Guess is elected, he probably won't be pulling any Cabinet members from the Senate.

The White House | Washington, DC "Mr. President," The door of the Oval Office creeped open. Fischer hadn't heard him, and the room was dark except for a lamp at the desk. "Mr. President," Jessman said. The President looked up from his papers on the Resolute Desk. "Jessman! ...

Also, are the popular vote results also going to be released after all this? Yes they are — a detailed breakdown state by state. Yeah, the mysterious Republican "Cotton"... who was the Democratic candidate, then? Or did they just not have one for the time being? I was originally thinking ...

Here's a general bill format for everyone. Not every bill will follow this exact model, of course, but it has some examples of what might appear. And the Charter might be structured a little differently from a normal bill. But here it is: [box][hr][/hr][align=center][size=150][b]Title[/b][/size][/al...

Now that we're here, I recommend maybe one more campaign event (just to show how your candidates are at the very end of the campaign). Then get the team and the family together for election day.

OP updated with new towns and new name. Welcome to all the newcomers to our city!

I suggest doing closing statements in the debate. Then tomorrow is the last day of campaigning, and results will come in Tuesday.

“There are 3 votes cast for Montgomery, and 5 votes cast for Respite. Therefore, the name of our city shall be Respite.”

Vienna briefly allowed for any applause, then continued. “Now, we need a charter. How should our city function?”

Voting ends in five hours. On a different note, what's a city without a map? Right now, I think we can have a map that we update either once or twice a month. I'll look into possible ways for people to make their own maps for their neighborhoods so that we'll have something uniform, but for right no...

I don't think anyone yet has a warlord governing their neighborhood, but yours could!

Quite a long drive there, Vienna

Florida to New York! Wish we could've gone straight through, but we had to stop overnight. No matter — now we're up and running solidly.

Vienna took a long, hard look at the book of arcane rules while everyone spoke. "Okay, folks, so it seems to me... the question is on the name, and uh..." Vienna frowned. "Well, let's put this to a vote. Let's call out the roll. The proposals are Montgomery, Respite, Carrie. You can a...

Sorry, I've been driving. Updating OP, everyone is accepted of course. Going to a vote now.

Jones nodded, staring blankly at the candidates. "Okay. Our final question is from Mr. Kenneth Bone." She looked directly into the camera, as if to say yes, that Kenneth Bone. Ken Bone stood, wearing an uncannily familiar outfit, and, smiling, spoke into the microphone. "What steps wi...

Okay, I thought we were on Thursday, sorry about this. This will be the last question. After both have responded and any back and forth, you can give your closing statements. We are on IC day = OOC day time starting tomorrow, ICly November 2nd. Results will start coming in Tuesday night, with news c...

Jones looked on, in many ways unsure if she really had the prerogative to control the debate. She looked at Kenneth, who was sitting down, watching. She looked at her production manager longingly. He shrugged. "Okay," she said. "Our next question is from Diane Becton, a neurologist at...

Yes, acceptance is automatic unless otherwise stated.

Great to see so many people interested! The Town Hall is now open, so we can get to work on discussing and writing a city charter.

Vienna fumbled around with an enormous handful of keys outside the old Town Hall building. "You sure you don't want some help, V?" somebody called from the crowd. "No, nope, I've got it," he shouted, trying another key in the door's lock. It didn't fit at all, and an audible sigh...
