Anywho given the fact that I have less of a campaign than my last one, basically these are the things I will try to do:

• Get some minor things through with court-procedure and representation in the courts.
• Act as an experienced voice within the UH.
• Lend my experience and knowledge of our law to the drafting of new laws.

and here is my experience:

• I have been told as being one of the best legislators in Wintreath/NS By Emoticonius and some other citizens
• Been called one of the most knowledgeable on our laws in the region by Emoticonius and some other citizens.
• I have been named explicitly in the Criminal Code of Laws.
• I have helped draft, or have drafted, a good portion of our laws.

Also I do want to sit in the last session as I sat in the very first, so it would be symbolic for me to be one of the few people that sat in the first UH to sit in the last UH, which should it end should be the way it should go IMO.

If both you and Gov are elected can you set aside your feud for the good of Wintreath and work together?

You have been told you're one of the best legislators by two people, only for how much you know about Wintreath law, but other people like Laurentus have stated you are difficult to work with because you belittle ideas you disagree with and call them idiotic.

If elected, how can we guarantee you will respect EVERYONE in the Underhusen and respect ALL CITIZENS in the region?

Oh lord, here we go.

Gov, Chanku.  Considering that you're both running for elected officials, can both of you please set aside personal differences and animosity towards each other and present both your questions and answers towards each other respectfully and tactfully?  Gov, this includes saying things that you know are an attempt to strike a rise from Chanku, and Chanku, the same applies to you.

Considering you have 7 candidates outside of yourselves running (so 9 total) and only 5 seats, the chance is very high that if you guys go through your typical elementary school-style arguments with each other like your normally do during election period when you both are running, neither of you is going to get elected.  You might get a vote or two, but like most of the elections with a decent candidate turnout, chances are 5 of the other 7 candidates will get absurdly higher votes than either of you.

I don't want to see either of you willingly throw away another chance to be in the Underhusen, or in Gov's case your first chance to be on the Underhusen for a complete term.  So please put your big boy pants on and treat each other at least with the facade of respect please.  This is an election process, not a pissing contest.  Please treat the process at least with some respect rather than turn it into yet another one of your grudge matches...again that goes for both of you.

All that aside, good luck to you in elections, Chanku.

I must admit Gov's question was surprisingly free from a personal attack. It was simply a real question. If it gets a rise out of Chanku, that's on him.

In all honesty, can we please answer this once and for all?

If elected, how can we guarantee you will respect EVERYONE in the Underhusen and respect ALL CITIZENS in the region?

How can we be sure you will treat *everyone* with respect and civility, given how that your actions also affects the royal family?

Will you RESPECT everyone AND myself as you have promised to everyone in this region, and as a member of the royal family?

If we both get elected to the Underhusen, how can we be assured you can put personal differences aside and work with others in a CIVIL and RESPECTFUL manner at all times?

Will you finally show respect to me for once as I am a citizen and a human being?

I must admit Gov's question was surprisingly free from a personal attack. It was simply a real question. If it gets a rise out of Chanku, that's on him.

I do agree that it's a real and valid question,  but I also know that it can simply be from that start of that question that things progress (hence why it's been asked by Gov as many times as Sapph posted).  Therefore I'm simply stating that ahead of time before it progresses again, regardless of the person who does it. 

As I said though, it is definitely a real and valid question and one that should be answered.  In the past he has answered it, though I would like to hear the answer again to see if it's changed in any way.

For the love of...

Why do you insist on bringing this up every election Gov? Is it because Chanku doesn't like you? Are you so insecure that the idea someone might dislike you is unthinkable? Have you stopped to consider that Chanku might have a valid reason for feeling that way towards you? Because in all honesty, several people have told you countless times why that is the case. If you can't even go one election without making it about your personal problems then why should anyone vote for you? Is there an ounce of professionalism in you? Chanku is obviously capable of serving in the Underhusen without letting his issues with you get in the way, but what about you? The Underhusen isn't a kindergarten classroom where everyone has to get along. It's a legislature, part of the region's government and that means not everyone will agree with each other, let alone even like each other. Have you considered that this is the very reason that you never get elected? This isn't meant to get a rise out of you or anything. I'm seriously asking these questions. And so help me if you use the words "passive aggressive"... >_<

You don't have a campaign thread so I'm kinda left with no choice but to ask this here.

I guess I should have extended that to Emoticonus as well even if he's not running.    There was no reason for that, and all that's going to accomplish is getting the rise that I'm hoping to avoid in these elections.  Can you please edit your post into a question for Chanku and not a direct confrontation with Gov?

I have been told as being one of the best legislators in Wintreath/NS By Tatte and Emoticonius

I would like my name not be used like this, please.

The title in its present form is a little off-putting. Some sort of a complete rethink of the whole campaign might be in order here, considering that your noteworthy credentials haven't secured a seat for you in the past. Maybe making a stronger note on social issues in Wintreath could be one of the highlights.

Good luck to you in your campaign, it is certainly not going to be easy by the looks of it.

The title in its present form is a little off-putting.

I do agree that the title isn't one of your best.  It sounds as if you're running just to run and that you're not interested in being a part of the UH at all.  Even if that may be true and that you're only running for other reasons, you should at least make it look like you want to actually win.

I also think you should refrain from naming people who think you're the best at something, and keep it strictly professional and to the facts.  Especially if you don't know if they'll even want to be mentioned in your campaign, like with above.  ^

It's great if they think you're good, but keep it more to what type of laws you've written, what you've been an integral part of (or what you feel you were an integral part of), and the like.  Saying things like "Such and such says I'm the best at this" comes off as a bit pretentious and unprofessional.

Not to mention, cherrypicking one of my compliments with regards to your abilities without adding that I find your attitude lacking, isn't really doing you any favours.

Well there's always that possibility as well.   

I am just going to state this:
If you wish for you to not be mentioned then I will edit it out, however I am left without internet access except for my phone....and I would rather not edit my campaign while on it.

On the gov thing I have answered it in the past, however gov never has accepted the answers givenl, which has lead me to not anwering the question anymore

I wish not to be mentioned.
