| Message | ooc: on another note, its likely that the NCAF will be going inactive soon, so can we hold off long enough to have them drop out too? |

| Message | Ooc--Id rather wait and fill ALL the seats than constantly work in a partially absent chamber. It doesn't make sense to keep having missing seats when we can choose our next election. |

| Message | OOC: we have to hold elections now. It's the law of the land. |
| Date | 06:38:10, August 07, 2016 CET | From | Moderate Capitalist Party | To | Debating the Call for early elections, July 4070 |
| Message | ooc: Not necessarily. That was pursuant to our NM laws, and we don't have one rn, so it is not enforceable. I will be down for new elections once the NCAF vacate their seats. We had our longest stretch with a full chamber in a long time and I'm not throwing it away once we have elections and then the NCAF leaves and everyones get upset about having elections too frequently. |

| Message | OOC: what if the NCAF logs in on the fourth day in the 23rd hour? We should just hold them now. Chances are they'll get very few seats anyways and won't trigger another election. |
| Date | 06:55:04, August 07, 2016 CET | From | Moderate Capitalist Party | To | Debating the Call for early elections, July 4070 |
| Message | ooc: But that's the point! Their vacancy will leave this chamber at sub-100% capacity, and that's so inefficient. You and everyone else know that the odds of them joining in that scenario are very low, so we might as well wait. I'm not voting for an early election until they are either deactivated or start voting again. |
