Why is there a WA Secretary Election?

What would a WA Secretary do?

Why was there no prior warning of this?

You forgot about timezones my dear boy, timezones. And clearly the point of the election is to see me elected.

I'm scared about this, to be honest. according to the news page, the SG will be "imbued with powers too vast to mention". If this is so, then this might threaten the sovereignty of many regions, especially the very small ones. I am holding an emergency session of my Regional Assembly right now, to figure out what to do if the election gets out of hand.

He wants to outlaw Invading/Raiding Regions.

It's funny because the communist with 95% income tax is going to win. He overtook Ted Trump and Hillary Sanders in 30 minutes, whereas this election has been running for almost an hour and a half.

The United Coalition of Nation States insures the sovereignty of its members. The WA will just be turned into an all-powerful organization that has the ability to influence the entire world. I like the way the WA is now, and I really think that electing a "leader" for it would just be impractical.

I do not want raiding to be outlawed. Not only does this ruin gameplay, it puts 'fendas out of a job.

The World Assembly is alread an all-powerful organization if you are a member of it. The WA already has corrupt "leaders", because the system is rigged so that Delegates don't get one vote each. Regions like the Pacific Regions have hundreds of votes and defeat any legislation they don't like.

Edward Rump will change this. Edward Rump will exterminate the Black Riders.

I lost my home, my Region, and everything else to a minor Rading party. Raiders are trash and should have never been allowed to exist. (I'm not joking. I hate Raiding.)

Only Edward Rump can save us from Raiders. He can outlaw Raiding. He is our vengeance.

Free Province Resistance for Secretary General







In the fight of the requirement for leadership in the World Assembly, somebody needs to help keep the world assembly organized. We believe we can do this. With our beliefs to inspire the comrades of the World, and our determination towards freedom, justice, peace, and equity, we can make the World Assembly a powerful organization, with the true purpose of making the world a place of beauty and showing our glorious propriety. Our goal is to wake up the people of every nation, and make them see the beauty of a free world and a free World Assembly.

One of the many problems we face is raiding of regions. If I am elected Secretary General, I shall make progress towards the end of unfair raiding, as raiding is one of the many things that makes the world great, but regions that do it illegally must be stopped.

I have also noticed that many national delegates blindly vote in the World Assembly, having no care about the issues and usually voting with the poll that has the most votes. If I am elected Secretary General, I wish to make issues more appealing for WA delegates.
