Just now from Laeralsford, Laeral
朋友,家人,絲綢之鄉的人們:對我們所有人來說,這是一段漫長的旅程。有些人從一開始就和我在一起,有些人和我一起參加競選活動。昨天有些人為我投票,不是因為我是你的第一選擇,而是因為我是你的第二個,或者你的第三個。有些人根本沒有投票支持我。而且,今天我和你們所有人都稱我為國家的總統,我從未獲得過更高的榮譽。在接下來的幾個月和幾年裡,我將致力於為所有人服務,作為你的總統。
Amis, famille, Laeraliens: le voyage a été long pour nous tous. Certains d’entre vous étaient avec moi depuis le tout début, et certains d’entre vous se sont joints à moi pendant la campagne électorale. Certains d’entre vous ont voté pour moi hier, non pas parce que j’étais votre premier choix, mais parce que j’étais votre deuxième ou votre troisième. Certains d'entre vous n'ont pas du tout voté pour moi. Et je n’ai jamais eu autant d’honneur que de prendre la parole devant vous tous aujourd’hui et de me qualifier de président de notre pays. Au cours des mois et des années à venir, je me consacrerai au service de tous, en tant que président.
Friends, family, Laeralites: it's been a long journey for all of us. Some of you were with me from the very beginning, and some of you joined with me on the campaign trail. Some of you cast your ballot for me yesterday not because I was your first choice, but because I was your second, or your third. Some of you didn't vote for me at all. And I have never had a higher honor than to stand before you, all of you, today and call myself the president of our nation. Over the coming months and years, I will dedicate myself to serving the people, all of you, as your president.|⇧ UPVOTE| |⇩ DOWNVOTE| |REPLY|

To all of you who supported my campaign: thank you. Thank you for your efforts, your passion, and the kindness and hospitality you've shown me and my family throughout the election season. I have just conceded the race for the presidency of Laeral to my opponent, Governor Liu Mei-han, and I offered her my warmest congratulations upon her victory. I will be returning to my seat in the General Assembly, where I will keep fighting for our Laeral. Thank you, and God bless you all.|⇧ UPVOTE| |⇩ DOWNVOTE| |REPLY|

Wow! Been awhile, hasn't it? Sorry about that all, but it seems that exams and that expansion of my royal duties has kept me too busy for social media lately. It also kept me from being able to live tweet the #Lareal elections like I planned. I'd still like to express my excitement and heartfelt congratulations for president-elect Liu Mei-Han on her hard fought election victory! As you all already know, I've been a big fan of her's since the start, so I won't bother rehashing my reasons why I think she is a great choice to lead Lareal: her campaign speaks for itself, and says far more about her qualifications to take on the challenges ahead then I could. I very much look forward to getting the chance to meet her in person at the Imperial Palace to discuss the future of our two nations in greater detail as I think she is a once-in-a-lifetime kind of leader. A formal invitation will be forthcoming.|⇧ UPVOTE| |⇩ DOWNVOTE| |REPLY|

Oh, and commiserations are in order for Damien Vendorme. We didn't see eye to eye on every issue, and I've been one of the more vocal critics of the manner in which he chose to conduct his campaign, but in his concession speech he demonstrated true leadership by taking the high road and choosing to be a force for unity rather then one for further division. He is clearly a man who always puts his country first, which is truly commendable. I wish him luck in his future endeavors.
Overall, I really enjoyed following this election, as it allowed me to speak more freely then I would have dared had the candidates been my own subjects. Thank you for putting up with me through it all! And to all my new followers: I love you.|⇧ UPVOTE| |⇩ DOWNVOTE| |REPLY|

The Executive Branch
The President is the leader of Laeral and has the power to delay or fast-track bills in the National Assembly, as well as establishing the government’s priorities. Liu Mei-han, a former Progressive who formed her own centrist political party, was elected as the President in a whirlwind campaign that took seasoned political observers by surprise. Liu, the first female President of Laeral, campaigned on a platform of opposing partisanship and adapting to the challenges of the future, while winning massive support from Rén voters. Although her platform was criticized as being short on policy details, her priorities include increased regulation of tobacco, increased access to public housing, and reforming Laeralian labor and workforce law. Now, Liu sits in Republic House, but has so far proven unable to convince the National Assembly to elect a Prime Minister. Her first choice to form a government proved unable to do so within 60 days, leaving Liu unable to enact policy while the National Assembly remains unsettled.
The National Assembly
Incumbent Prime Minister Tanvi Misra
The National Assembly is composed of two houses. The proportionally-elected Assembly of Commons, with 11 parties represented among its 386 Representatives, has so far failed to form a coalition government. The Commons, traditionally lively (some would say raucous) has also seen the arrival of a record number of freshmen members, those serving out their first term in office. The General Assembly, consisting of two Delegates from each province, has also seen change among its ranks. There are numerous new faces on the General Assembly floor, as well as six different parties represented among its 66 members.
The Prime Minister is elected by the Commons and may be removed by that house through a vote of no confidence. In general, the PM is responsible for working with the National Assembly to pass legislation favorable to the President’s goals, although the Prime Minister and the President may be of different political parties, a situation known as ‘cohabitation’. Legislation is passed through the National Assembly, through one of two methods. In the first method, the Assembly of Commons passes a bill by a simple majority, and it is then passed by the General Assembly through another simple majority. Alternately, the Assembly of Commons passes a bill by a two-thirds or more majority, and it is then signed into law by the President. Thus, bills that are massively popular in the Commons can bypass the General Assembly if the President approves of them.
