| Message | Mayors cause absolutism - all the power goes to one man or woman, instead of a number of representatives with opposition groups there. No. |

| Message | As long as the mayor is elected, and can be removed democratically, this is not such a problem. Besides, hung councils end up in indecision, and some areas might want to cut through the political mire to a clear position. |

| Random fact: When you join the game, you will find yourself with only zero seats. That's because your party's representatives haven't been elected yet. You need to establish your party's position on issues by proposing several bills that your party wants passed and sending them to vote. This raises your visibility and if you do it enough, you will win seats at the next election. |
