I mean assuming she lives. That'd be a crazy thing, popular after the beating

Any updates on her? Didn't see anything when I skimmed

I just had an insane war as Korea in EUIV, essentially everyone of my neighbors except China (I annexed 2 Manchu tribes fully), Korea was basically alone(Ming did some a bunch of money though) against all the Manchu tribes and Japan(not unified just a bunch of clans). Thankfully I had a 6 shock general(fittlingly called Rip Ha, no joke) and my opponents kept sending their armies piecemeal, so I just kept stack wiping their armies, and eventually, the coalition crumbled as I crushed one army after another.

In short, I triumphed thanks to my general, and a giant war chest of 400 ducats.

Making raising the smoking age a priority might not be the best career move for a gov in the biggest tobacco state in America

Finally survived as Novgorod in EUIV, I did it by heroically allying with Poland-Lithuania and deterring them entirely.

Over the past few days I created the North German State of Dentali, just won the 30 years war against a coalition of Russia, Austria, Spain and France plus a few catholic German States. On my side I had Dentali (Denmark, Hamburg, Pomerania, Brandenburg), Sweden, Great Britain, The Dutch, Portugal, 80% of the German States, Poland-Lithuania, the Ottomans and Hungary. Over a million dead but Dentali ascendant as the Holy Roman Emperor controlling most of german through vassal states, a humiliated France and Spain, Russia in the midst of a civil war, austria broken, and spain robbed of its colonies.

I should have the time to do a full review, now.

1. Something of a question as to his reputation, here. Is he viewed as being pro-business, or problematically pro-union? The commentary on the hearing in general is somewhat difficult to discern, with the noted issue being the moderacy of his views, what would the composition of the vote on his confirmation be?

2. Given that Wegman's is a family owned and operated business, I would recommend simply changing this to a nondescript high-ranking position in the company.

3. A district is needed. I would recommend the 25th, and changing the vote total to something along the lines of a 48-47 margin, to account for other votes.

4. More details would be preferable, though this is acceptable. The question would come again to his stance on unions, with a fiscally conservative voting record, whether he would support right-to-work legislation, and the like.

5. I would recommend narrowing this margin of victory significantly to a plurality victory, again leaving space for other votes, perhaps 47-46 or 48-46.

Fixed, with recommendations.

Oh yeah, forgot about that. Well, I’m still figuring stuff out, and I bet there will still be some support in North Carolina for it.

NC produces twice as much tobacco as the next state. While significant declines have occurred in North Carolina, it still employs tens of thousands of people and contribute massively to the economy of NC.

Yeah, sorry. I’m trying to figure stuff out now. I’ll check my stuff better in the future, although I don’t think I can change it now. I’ll just say that the legislators couldn’t come up with a decision for the bill. Do you think that would be alright?
