| Message | Fine, if you want I'll hold this till the election and we can swap. Also, there is a mayor bill on the vote right now, so I want to wait and see what happens to it. Of course I'm against it, it's for direct election of mayors. |

| Message | I'd rather have direct election of mayors. Our fine Imperial Senate shows what happens when executives are chosen by legislatures. ;-) |
