| Message | Yes, but you will notice that we voted for that proposal. Anyways the two are substantially different whereas ours was asking for the expansion of Parliament to its largest size ever; yours proposed increasing its number by one seat to avert any possible ties. |
| Date | 02:07:27, December 09, 2005 CET | From | Moderate Beluzians | To | Debating the More Representation |
| Message | Yes, I understand that, but I didn't want the law to change right after my bill passed because this one did. Though if someone wanted to create a new bill with the same goal, now that this are both concluded, I can support it. Also note that my vote contributes 0 seats at the moment. |
