Week of 2/3/13 in Review

President Election

Kyn Tucin visited Acta Diurna today as part of his big Elephanthia tour, trying to garner support from the increasingly liberal sectors. He spoke in several parts of Acta Diurna about investing in infrastructure and trying to deter pirates. His speeches were met with wide reception on the trade planet.

Desnol Binnill was trying to capture votes in Cenaci while its favorite son, Kyn Tucin, was away. He talked about his positions on minimum wage, affordable housing, and cleaning out the slums. Many lower-level residents have agreed with him that we need to do more about the slums on Cenaci.

Tatek Representative Cara Crantat, who is poised to lose her seat as the new Constitution rolls around, is talking in the border sector of Teseress. She is calling for talks with the new Democratic State of Waterloo on how the new territory will be split up.

Meanwhile, also on Teseress, fringe candidate Nikita Collensburg is playing on nationalist sentiment, calling for an invasion to reclaim the planets that were "rightfully Ceni's", he said in a speech. These policies weren't met with deaf ears on Teseress, where there is large nationalist sentiment.

Prime Minister Election

Shadow B'betsy again spoke about starport development, this time on swing planet As Lan, where liberal voters have a wealth of candidates to choose from. She also talked about how poverty needs to be eradicated and the slums should go.

Kartot Tarat decided to practice non sequitur on Kitigarg. Instead of talking about infrastructure development or poverty, he was talking about the future of abortion rights. But at least this was the right place to talk about it, because Xitogargs don't exactly have the most tolerant attitude towards abortion.

Sern Aelar of Kitigarg talked about expanding Cenian companies to other nations in his series of talks about expanding the economy. The talks were well received and will continue, analysts predict. His latest talk was on national holovision on Cenaci, after he gave another one in the auditorium at the University of Cenaci.
