| Message | Mr Speaker, With the disolution of the Scientian Enclave, there are now 37 empty seats in the house. That means 37 ridings, and more than 9 million Hutorians are without representation in this house and without an early election, they would have to go unrepresented for more than a year. There is now also 2 ministries that no longer have a minister. We ask that all parties support this call for an early election. Dylan Jourdain MP for Fairview Prosperity Government House Leader Chairman of the Conservative Caucus |

| Message | Honourable Members of Parliament Under Federal Election Guidelines the Federal Election Commission is compelled to call early elections only when 15% of the seats or more have been vacated within this House. While the Scientians retreating into isolation does open 37 seats, that represets under 10% of the seats of this House. In regards to the matter of the Ministers, this is why we have Deputy Minister who can fill in as Acting Ministers, until such a time that the Chancellor or government moves to fill in those seats at the Cabinet table. Isaac Cross Chairman of the Federal Election Commission |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, With an election a year away, we see no reason for early elections at an incredible expense to the taxpayer. Since we are talking about elections, I rise to tell you that the New Liberals will support our Parliamentary Leader Peter Knox for the Presidency. We encourage our friends and colleagues to do the same. Sophia Morris MP for South Langdon New Liberal Party Chief Whip |

| Message | Mr. Knox As a fair warning this House is for House business; not campaign speeches, those can stay on your own time. Speaker of the Parliament |
