| Message | I know that you've just had elections, but as the Lib Dems are now back, I think it would be unfair to deny us the opportunity to fully engage in the process until the next elections. OOC: I might as well say now that I won't be on the site for 4 weeks from 23rd July (until 21st August), so I'll be inactive for a long period of time then. |
| Date | 19:32:38, July 09, 2012 CET | From | Vigs Partija ('Whigs') | To | Debating the Call for early elections, September 3331 |
| Message | We would welcome fresh elections, provided all parties agreed. |
| Date | 21:30:16, July 09, 2012 CET | From | Progressive Green Party | To | Debating the Call for early elections, September 3331 |
| Message | I'll propose a new cabinet after the election. Liberal Democrats: do you have any specific cabinet positions in mind? |

| Message | Just before the July 3330 election, the Whigs promised us we would keep our current cabinet positions, but obviously the situation is different now and any positions would be agreeable to us. |

| Random fact: It is not allowed to call more than 5 elections in 5 game years in a nation. The default sanction for a player persisting in the early election tactic will be a seat reset. |
| Random quote: "The problem is big government. If whoever controls government can impose his way upon you, you have to fight constantly to prevent the control from being harmful. With small, limited government, it doesn't much matter who controls it, because it can't do you much harm." - Harry Browne |
