Who will commit to Sec-Gen after the election?

[Warzone Codger]

Hello, hello.

The 2020 World Assembly Secretary-General election is at its final stage. It is choice between five candidates and in less than 24 hours, one of them will be our new Secretary General.

It is now time for voters ask - Who will commit to be Secretary General after the election?

I recognise the reality; the Secretary General has no enforceable powers. However, do not downplay the moral mandate of the position! The position this time round is elected from the direct endorsement of hundreds of verifiable (WA) voters. Candidates, remember this and understand that the Secretary General can be what you make of it. Continue engaging with the community. Voters, demand more from your Secretary General and together we can make this election be than a novelty.

The existing establishment & authorities will rapidly resist any attempts to extend this beyond a 'April Fools Joke'. This is the real enemy of 'Elites' we face ahead. I am not asking the Secretary General to make any misleading claims of authority which they do not have. There are mechanics for the General Assembly, Security Security Council and regional delegate selection. The Secretary General is a populist, moral, spiritual position. Guide us as far as you can, if voters and candidates both keep the faith, then we can create something new and beautiful for us all.

Thank you,

Warwick Z Codger.

I would have, I would have rocked that all day long. Far as current candidates go, not sure, but i'm backing Catgirl, so hopefully she will.

[Atlantian Oceania]

We have the backing of an entire community... or two. We will share this burden

You will! hastily writes up a pre-emptive second Commendation for Codger for his magical behind-the-scenes appointment as WA SecGen

[Praeceps]

I would be willing to commit to the Secretary General after the election and join them in holy matrimony.

As a WA member of large respectable non-zero influence of which there is no need to quantify, I hereby pledge to loyally and faithfully abide by the SecGen's wise and sagacious counsel when politically convenient, and loudly protest and disparage their credibility and capability otherwise.

[Kuriko]

I will also commit!

[Haruhi Japan]

I will also commit!

Me too, no matter who wins (preferably I would like it to be you) I will commit to them just as as I committed to you O' Great Kuriko, by making them cute campaign advertisements!

[Nouveau Quebecois]

This just makes me wonder more what would've happened if Jocospor won.

This just makes me wonder more what would've happened if Jocospor won.

The only way that would happen is if Jocospor suddenly denounced fascism and the whole CCD for that matter. Then maybe he might have a chance at winning but that's assuming that people don't already hate him for his OOC actions as well.

I'll be honest, I don't see anyone apart from the SecGen's own circle commiting to it. The second the SecGen starts saying things not favourable to them, people will drop them and it will fall to obscurity for another 4 years.

Pretty much this but without being a joke.

As Gen Sec, or at least the 4th contender... I promise cats and kittens for all!

And peace and harmony in the field of politics... *snickers* Ohh, but I will try, anyway! ^^

After a week of frenzy, countless TGs and $100s spent on stamps 'falling to obscurity' is exactly what I want to avoid.

Is everyone ok with all the campaigns being a lie and arguments just empty fury? Where it was all a show and we revert back to how NS was last week, as if this never happened?

I'm a dreamer, but this fever dream is giving us an opportunity. There is no physical power, but Max is right, there is an immerse, boundless, unspeakable power as long as we believe there is...

It's an interesting social experiment and also a good distraction from corona..
