| Message | The GPRP will now support this bill, as we feel that our presence is sufficiently established. OOC: So much for hoping to analyse the results and work out if I'd be shooting myself in the foot. I got nothin'. |

| Message | OOC: Glad to see it stays unpredictable election-on-election. I nearly fell off my chair the other day when I realised I'd polled a very strong third in Budenlar last time, despite barely earning a vote there in my first election. If this keeps up, I expect to be forming a one-party government soon :P |
