| Message | Herr Speaker, The President of the Dorvish Republic is responsible for the appointment of the Oberprasidents of the provinces. The appointment of the Oberprasidents come with the consultation of the outgoing provincial government as well as consultation by the provincial diet. We will continue to fight for this system as it has existed as a Dorvish tradition for nearly a century. Florian von Aeschelman, President of the State Council |

| Message | Herr Speaker, We care not for outdated traditions, but instead for the people's right to choose who rules them. This includes Mayors! |

| Message | Herr Speaker, We then believe that the Socialist Unity Party and Progressive Party might align themselves together to destroy Dorvik all together. Perhaps that is what the puppet of the Socialist wants? Florian von Aeschelman, President of the State Council |

| Message | Herr Speaker, Gross over exaggeration from the Social Nationalists, how would allowing citizens to elect their own mayors destroy our country? Also remarks about our party being a puppet to an ineffectual opposition are most unfounded, they have not even voted on a single of our bills yet! |

| Message | Herr Speaker, Die Ehrenloses (The Honorless) have attempted and mounted continual attempts to destroy Dorvik with their socialist ways, we've been beseeched at all sides by communist and socialist attempting to rape Dorvik of her resources and her ability to defend herself. If not a puppet why support something that Die Ehrenloses have proposed before? Florian von Aeschelman, President of the State Council OOC: Also, a note, mayors are elected in Dorvik, this was created with provincial leadership being appointed. I guess we can vote a different way on this and maybe just create an RP law. |
