| Message | Mr Speaker, We don't know about this bill, if having only 75 seats would be more efficient, anyway this bill may have our vote just for trying if this may could. |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, Remember with the amount of political parties that the People's Republic of Dorvik has it would be wise to keep representation of our ever growing population high therefore more people are represented. |

| Message | With not much say.. I believe I should put our opinion anyhow. The current 500 is good and we agree..it is efficient. It allows a logical amount in any assembly, while 75 seems much, much to low. |
