| Message | Mr. Speaker, There are no empty seats, but we have voted to change the number of seats in the Imperial Diet with the next election, and there are four parties at the moment who do not have any representation in the Diet, at least two of which will undoubtedly gain seats this election. Without a doubt, the true reason why the White Rose is against this is because they are afraid of losing their combined majority as a result of democratic processes. Luke Schiltz Party Chairman, Moralist Party |

| Message | Mr Speaker, Funny how the Moralists did not present this when they were in power and the seat reduction passed. There is a full Diet and 20 months left of the term, with lots of legislation before the Diet too. Free and fair elections will be held on schedule. Frederick Stinson Chancellor |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, My party has never been "in power" as the opposition suggests. Rather, we had a say in the ministries, holding a modest three seats, since that was back before the White Rose party coalitioned to vote all of the other parties out of the cabinet if that is what the chancellor meant. The Moralist Party called for elections so that the minority parties could gain seats even though it will likely result in a smaller percentage of seats being attained for our party, because we believe in democracy. I suppose the White Rose party is only interested in maintaining their combined majority. Luke Schiltz Party Chairman, Moralist Party |

| Message | Mr Speaker, Seeing out the term and then holding elections in 19 months is not undemocratic, it is the law. Frederick Stinson Chancellor and Imperial Seal Bearer Deputy Leader of the Royalists |
