| Message | We are not sure how "equal representation" is somehow not representative of the people. |

| Message | I disagree with the current laws. Regions with more population SHOULD be given a form of advantage. To bring it into context, imagine a region has only one person in it, and another has 1000 people. Now, the way elections work is that, the party which gets the most regions wins, it is not based on raw votes. So should this 1 man state have as much power as the 1000 man state in elections? V. confusing. |

| Message | The VCA dodges issues and gives idiotic replies, they won't give a real reason, except to hold on to power in their way that they do, and I am supprised that the Conservatives don't dissent from this age old way that the VCA uses to try to control the people. This is a manipulation of elections. |
