How do these primaries work?

What is the impact of them? How many will there be? Will each one eliminate a candiate until there is only two left for the main election? Just curious.

Fair enough.

So basically since EE got into this, this primary was basically the eliminate EE primary so the real people can get on with the election.

Got it.

:chuckle: I don't think so.

All of the candidates have something different to offer. Personal feelings shouldn't get in the way of any one of them, or what they are offering. I think most people should base their decision on what points are made in the debate. I know I would, if I could vote. :idunno:

lol We all know that politicians lie. They'll say anything to get elected and then once they are, all the zoners will be stuck with empty promises. Some of the candidates are power hungry and regardless of what they say in the debates, we all know nothing good would come if they were elected.

So why not vote for the person who has been trying to make the Zone a better place long before these elections came about.

That's exactly it. Plus make it a public ballot so anyone who dares support me can be harrassed by the ham handed status quo.

It was made public so we can avoid and investigate the fraud you complained about happening.

It also provides proof that there has been no back room shenigans as you can see who voted as well as the number of votes.

I would be willing to accept shelby's word that there has been no foul play if we had a secret ballot.

If I were to run for Bills Zone President, I would pull all my buddies out of Iraq and let those ****ers do what they want.
