| Message | Mr. Speaker, The parties in this proposed coalition are inexperienced, and possibly unfit to govern. Additionally, 300 seats are required to pass a cabinet proposal, and they only have 275. Lodamun isn't in an emergency situation where a minority government may be necessary. A more stable coalition, between the GNRG and the P&A, can govern. -- Gordon Fertig, Chairman of the GNRG |

| Message | Mr Speaker. As per results of this dissapointing turned out election. The people clearly think we are fully capable of governing. And are slowly getting tired of these to grand old parties. Phillipa Corazona D.A Representative on Justice |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, The "grand old parties" still have more seats, and for good reasons. -- Gordon Fertig, Chairman of the GNRG |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, We're voting in favor while realizing it will fail. But we find the claims of the GNRG bordering on the laughable. To be clear, they did not governing with anything even remotely looking like a mandate. Indeed, more people voted for the new, more liberal parties than either of the older ones. They did not get more seats "for good reason", they got it through the setup of the electoral system. Our frustration at the electoral results does not extend to the P and A, and although we wish they had proposed a progressive coalition, it makes sense that they would take advantage of the electoral fluke of the disproportionate national seat share that one party has. The times, they are a'changing. XXX Steven Patrick Morrissey Parliamentary leader of the Rally For The Republic |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, It is barely a matter of who got more votes. The requirement to pass a cabinet bill is 300 seats. -- Gordon Fertig, Chairman of the GNRG, President of Lodamun |
