| Message | We fully support Article 1. In order to ensure the power supply, we suggest the national power grid to be owned by the state. Therefore you won't get our vote on Art. 2. Finally, we support a private power production, but the prices should be regulated by the state. Therefore: No on Article 3. |

| Random fact: In cases where a party has no seat, the default presumption should be that the party is able to contribute to debates in the legislature due to one of its members winning a seat at a by-election. However, players may collectively improvise arrangements of their own to provide a satisfying explanation for how parties with no seats in the legislature can speak and vote there. |
