Elections have concluded! In addition to the regular Underhusen election, this election also included the ratification of the FLAMES Act, a Constitutional Amendment to dissolve the Storting and grant legislative authorities to the Monarchy. Obviously the potential ramifications of this election were great, and attracted a lot of attention in the region. The details of both elections are below.
Ratification of the FLAMES ActBy far, the ratification was the more active election, with 29 Citizens taking part, including 3 private votes! That's not a surprise given how long this issue has been discussed in the region and how intensely people on both sides felt about it. At the end of the election, there were
21 votes for and
8 votes against, meaning that 72.41% of voters supported it, meaning that the ratification has
passed.
Underhusen ElectionDue to the ratification of the FLAMES Act, the Underhusen along with the Storting is dissolved. However, because there was still a vote, I thought we should still know who would have won. Only 15 Citizens voted in this election including 2 private votes, and of those 8 voted abstain at least once. The results are:
10 - Hapi
08 - Laurentus
08 - TGN
06 - Alexander Valentine04 - Chanku
01 - Mathyland
*There were a total of 18 abstain votes.
I would say congrats to the winners, but...yeah. At least you know that you had the support of so many of your fellow Citizens, and that has to count for something.
