| Message | "Mr Speaker, It is clear that this is purely the anti-refugee agenda trying to defy our democratic system. The Socialist Party will honour the decisions of our voters for four years as is our law. This does not classify as an extreme circumstance, divisive laws go before Senates all over Terra every day. This is our job to represent the people." - Fraser Zilberschlag (HSP-FA) HSP Senate Leader, former Prime Minister of Hutori |

| Message | Mr.Speaker, We reject this motion.Just because the Initiative to accept Refugees has won,The LDP cannot call for early elections.This Is utterly Undemocratic and will unnecessarily result in a lot of expenditure for the government. The Government must be trying to unite the nation,and not divide it. Therefore we oppose the LDPs Proposal for early elections. Mr.Henry Pearson, Liberal Party Leader |

| Message | Mr. Speaker We respect the Liberal Democratic Party's request for early elections as is their right as a political party to request while disagreeing with their reasoning for it. We will note to out colleagues that the LDP are not wrong on this file that we appear divided, of the 600 Senators that sit in this chamber 223 Votes in favor while 191 voted against, there were 186 Abstainations, so while our proposal passed by simple majority, we can't know whether or not it would have passed if the other two voting parties had lodged their votes. We will await the feedback of Prime Minister McCurdy's opinion on the matter as his Party would have been the absolute deciding factor on the question. Victor Durham Senator for Groomsbridge Royalist Senate Leader |

| Message | Mr speaker, The people should be given the option to make the final decision about the refugee crisis. We would vote in favour of holding early election so the will of the people is shown and we can reconsider the refugee situation. Charlie Atkinson, Leader of the Democratic Nationalist Party |

| Message | ''Mr. Speaker, We will vote for this early election. Not because of the refugee crisis but mostly because since the The Nationalist Republican Party has gone inactive, 8% of the population didn't have any representation'' -Tom Bokota Jr Leader of the National Progress Party |
| Date | 12:45:42, February 03, 2017 CET | From | Hutori Socialists | To | Debating the Refugee Crisis Election |
| Message | "Mr Speaker, We would like the National Progress Party to acknowledge that 90 seats must be vacated for early elections to be called. Considering the NRP only had 50 seats when they went inactive, this is not reason enough to push this to an early election. Please reconsider your vote before we are pushed to an unnecessarily early election." - Fraser Zilberschlag (HSP-FA) Senate Leader of the Socialist Party, former Prime Minister of Hutori |
