| Message | I vote no mainly because the term "paramilitaries" is not defined. |

| Message | Its in the defence section so 'a military-esque force whose function and organisation are similar to those of a professional military, but which is not considered part of a state's formal armed forces.' So basically a party's military. |

| Message | Well, it could be auxiliary police, border guards, and so on. Too broad a group to ban them. |

| Message | No. You're wrong. If you look at the other options it means parties having armies, especially with it being under the 'defence' section. Look at the other options, it proves my point. OOC: It means paramilitaries as in armed groups associated with political parties, like the Ulster Volunteer Force in Northern Ireland. Obviously no one would ban border guards.. |

| Random fact: It usually takes up to an hour for election results to generate. During this time, the "Next Election" date is put forward a month, which is confusing. Do not worry! In a short time, the election result will generate and the "Next Election" date will then correct itself. |
