| Message | We think that if no one receives over 50% than the top two face off, our given there previous votes, and then parties endorse, what does DEM think? |

| Message | We proposed that law. Because you have for example Lab who won Governship with 10% of vote and is requesting from Dem to go into coalition with us (we obtained 40% of votes). It doesn't make sense that party which received 4 times less seats/votes is taking senior position while other party is junior party in the coalition. That's complete madness. OOC: You have in some countries (mostly in Latin America) where President is elected in the first round. We're not proposing this, the problem is that you can't automatically assign your party votes to the other party only because you wanted. |

| Message | It's not unfair. It makes sure each government has a majority of seats and means that the coalitions will be more likley to be smaller |

| Random fact: In cases where players introduce RP laws to a nation and then leave, Moderation reserves the discretion to declare the RP laws void if they appear to have fallen into disuse. In particular, please bear in mind that a player who is inexperienced with Particracy role-play and has joined a nation as the only party there should not generally be expected to abide by RP laws implemented by previous players who have been and left. |
