| Message | We do not need more representatives at all. Adding more will increase our cost in the matters of salaries. Every Governate has 50 officials that the people vote for. |

| Message | Increasing the number of representatives gives more opinions and allows for more equal splitting of percentages in votes. As for salaries, it should be noted that the HA said "These officials have a social obligation to the people of Badara, these people leave their homes and families to carry out said duties. With their high salaries, they also tend to spend more for Zakat." therefore we ask the HA to support increasing the number of representatives |

| Message | Having too many opinions is bad for a growing nation. Our obligation to the people is to run this nation without unreasonable cost. We would approve of an extra seat. |
