No, this isn't a copy of the mock election. It's a realish election thread. I was thinking about the 'elections' at OD, and wondered why we don't have one here. I say we hold an election to pick the 'president' of Aok. No authority, just bragging rights, are at stake. Yes, I got this idea from the OD, and this tends to generate the most spam at OD (like there isn't enough already), but at AoKH, there is much less spam. I think we could hold an election here, without adding ten topics and spamming like artificial ham is going out of style.


Candidates


  • AoK People's Party pres: trebuchet king VP: Icy Sting SoS: zak
  • NFDSRWPRF Party pres: GoC VP: Lorenzo
  • ax/raptor party pres: ax_man1 VP: Raptor SoD: mete
  • Era Party pres: watchwood VP: MW

Era wins! Congratulations!

I'd be your vp, but I'm not sure you'd want me.

I was going to comment, but I decided not to because it will just spam up this thread.

And no, swp would never get my vote, he's way too critical and sarcastic.

Trebuchet, I could be your vp. After all, I'm insignificant, small and dumb! What more could you want in a vp.

Vote for me and I will:
Cut taxes!
Create a national defense network
Help homeland security
Find and prosecute terrorists, people linked to terrorists, and people who were rumored to have links to someone whou was rumored to have some link to a terrorist!


Mmmmm... Pie.

Apologies, but in those three categories, I'd beat you silly1 I'm dumbest, most insignificant, and smallest of almost all of the forumers.

[q]Cut taxes!

I agree strongly with #1, only if you make sure to tack on the "for the poor and middle class" part. That's what I find stupid about Crane's commercials against Melissa Bean. They say she wants higher taxes, but that's for the rich. They conviently forget to mention that.

Hmmm... dunno. I don't want to run by myself, that'd cause too many candidates. I might join you, but I want to be something other than Secretary of State.

Vote for me, the one only candidate of the Ultimate party.
My goal is to gain ultimate power over all of AoKH.
I have been given a Divine Commmand to rule.
First, I will ban all other mods, making my power supreme.
Then I will alter the CoC so that my will becomes the law.
Then I will enforce the ammended Coc very strictly.
N00bs like Field Marshal BM and Chewmen_zak will be banned on sight.

If TK is elected, I, as the Secretary of Defense, will keep n00bs like that out of AoKH. No, FM, you are not a n00b. Not that I know of, anyways.

Back in 8th grade, my 7th hour social studies class split into five parties and tried to get elected as president. It was to learn about the primary/caucus system in America. Our party made it through each primary and went on to win. The voters were individual 8th grade classes for the primaries and a 7th grade class for the final election. Our "nerd" party managed to beat out the popular boys (jocks), the popular girls, the punks, and a mixed party to become the winner. And it was mainly due to me, the unassuming speech writer that wrote the speeches that basically decided the whole race. So, with that kind of experience, vote for my party!

Whatever. If you like this these other candidates, then by all means cast your meaningless ballots for them. I'm sure they'll be extra-kool figure-heads!

If thats not what you want, vote for me. Or you could vote for me cause you like me. I really don't care. I just think this place would be better off with a practical poli sci major and future politician in charge than a pack of twittering idiots who want to declare imaginary wars on other forums that they won't even carry out anyway out of fear of being banned (breaking campaign promises already, the sign of an amateur).

Note for those lacking wisdom, I realize you don't twitter. So shut the hell up about it.

I won't be campaigning, so if someone wants to run that side of things that'd be great. Volunteers?

Also slash the # of candidates plz, if every third person here is running it really defeats the point. Narrow it down to two or three so the winner doesn't end up with 3 votes, then everyone else has 1 or 2, et al

Vote for the Historian Party!

All members will receive a free T-Shirt depicting the battle of your choice!

We promise to:

1) Revert back to the good golden days, with fewer n00bs and less spammage.

2) The CoC will include new acts that protect the rights of the individuals who take part of the forum.

3) Equal rights for all!

4) We will not back down on intolerable acts of flaming and invasion of privacy and rights.

5) I will promise to rid the forums of the evils of hatred and terrorism.

With you, we can make a difference. We can make AoKH a better place for young people and the olden generation shine with the brillance of ten thousand stars. Let us join together and pursue alliances to bring back the golden times. Only with your vote, can that happen.

Vote for Kevin Wang!

If you elect me, I will:

-Become AoK President!
-Most likely have a vice president!
-Put a line stating I am president in my sig!

I am the candidate who makes promises he can keep. Whoosh.

Anyone can be my vice president as long as they have a gun. That I can use.
