[The Senate] Constituency Claiming Thread

Postby Department of Elections » Wed Apr 26, 2017 2:43 pm

Welcome to the constituency and elections thread for Fernão!
Format borrowed from Tumbra.
Click on the map below for an interactive version with constituencies, made by The New World Oceania.
New thread run by Lykens and a team of assistants.

Image


Right now constituencies are colored randomly, but they will soon be colored by party. Every constituency has about one million residents. Those wishing to claim a physical constituency, instead of a list seat, will need to contest the seat at elections. All the demographic and economic information is contained on the interactive map.

Elections
At all general elections, all 20 geographic constituencies will have their seats up for election. Any member of the roleplay may contest a seat, while everyone else will be assumed to have list seats. Election results are based on a spreadsheet that uses objective categorizations to track roleplaying (no human evaluation or scoring takes place). A momentum-based model gives the final results, and the candidates choose who their votes runoff to before the election.

Application
Use the app below to contest a seat.

Code: Select all

Reserved.

To check the effectiveness of the system, we're going to hold a special election for the North of Fernão Constituency.

You may now post.

The period for the byelection for North of Fernão will start at 5pm GMT (in an hour and a half). Candidates can declare after that, but that's when campaign roleplaying will start to be tracked.

How will we RP the campaigning? Will we make new thread and post events or something?

The daily life thread is the best place to roleplay the campaigns for now.

Wait a second, I just realized that Soviet Canuckistan is using another character for the election rather than his main senator. Wouldn't that give him control of two senators and give him control of two votes?

Do we have the capitols of each state named and their locations? I am writing a campaign post and would like the rally to be in the state capitol but I have no idea what it is.

Right now, we don't have named states, so you can name the state and the capital as you wish. I'll take this into account when we revise the system — this is why we're doing the test run, after all.

Wait, so those are not actually the state names on the map? I may need to edit the post I am working on.

edit: I will just roll with the map names and not say the city name. No one is actually going to make a issue of it

Those are the constituencies. The states are separate entities.
