Aiden Debord Throws Hat In

Aiden Debord, the leader of the newly reorganized ADP Party, has stepped up to run for President. "I will work to ensure that taxes are low and anarchy is rampant!" he said. Political analysts have said a run by Aiden Debord would be suicidal, as he has no chance to stand up to Kyn Tucin. "A minor political party, that speaks against the democracy that was built, and makes policies so horrible that nobody would vote for them, has nearly zero chance of winning any offices," political analyst Masmer Mamai says. "They just can't win." 

John Ceil Quits Race

After a disappointing showing in the May 5 primaries, John Ceil has quit the running for Prime Minister as the Cenian Social Liberal Party. "I know I would have no chance of standing up to Shadow B'betsy, and I want to focus our party so that they win the general election, both for President and Prime Minister, and in the legislative branch as well. Thank you for your time, Ceni!" he said in his speech. The nomination will probably go to front-runner Shadow B'betsy.

Dictatorship Party Reorganized

What used to be the Dictatorship Party has a new name. After the failed coup d'etat, its leader, Allan Debord, was convicted of conspiracy to overthrow the government and attempting to overthrow the government, his brother Aiden Debord took over the party. Today, he unveiled its new image. He touts no taxes (for all money belongs to the government), a dictatorship society, and punitive actions against those who did not vote for the new party. The new party has taken on the mantle ADP Party.

Kitigarg and Other Sectors Receive CSLP Candidates Attention

Kitigarg and 25 other sectors face the CSLP Prime Minister candidates' attention ahead of their primaries tomorrow. 1,090 delegates are up as the Bandarbeyla, En'bak, Grand Fentlaraar, Grusgy, Kikimora, Kitigarg, Kokand, Kroyale, Luk VII, Marias Pass, Mastero, Navi, Pikadora, Plaro, Popatrok, Praristna, Sam'ina'min, Seorilon, Shigon, Shirta, Skenee, Sulrutuk, Suollak, Tereasi, Tioli, and Upper Thenipar sectors vote. Lando Calpandian is expected to win the Skenee, Upper Thenipar, Kroyale, and Seorilon sectors due to his policies on Wateloo, but Shadow B'betsy is expected to win most other sectors. John Ceil is most likely to win the conservative sectors because he is the least liberal. Above all, these candidates will be vying for the most delegates to become the CSLP nominee for Prime Minister.

CSLP Prime Minister Candidates Campaign Before Cenaci Primary

Shadow B'betsy, Lando Calpandian, John Ceil, Robert Langley, and Leaper Lemur are all campaigning in key sectors before their primaries April 28. The Aerio, Aurea Simia, Ber, Boydnyr Pass, Cenaci, Coitri, Fentlaraar, Hoakgox, Hrrar Plo, Ille, Katinal, Klero, Lower Throneworlds, Michosplak, Nanania, Narinomats, New Cenaci, New Ceni, Nexhtar, Ordnrd V, Pandolo, Sartakak, Sauretik, Squee, Tar Ania, Tatek, Tobrun, and Upper Throneworlds sectors all hold their primaries that day. Shadow B'betsy is campaigning in the Aerio sector, where she is hoping to have a good primary showing after touting her political experience and liberal policies. Lando Calpandian is touting his political experience in the Ordnrd V sector, and promising that he will help the revolution in Waterloo. Robert Langley is saying in the Squee sector that taxes need to be higher for the rich, John Ceil is giving speeches in Tar Ania, and Leaper Lemur is campaigning heavily in the Sartakak sector. 2,779 delegates are at stake.

Tatek Students and Teachers Tackle Tough Test

Tatek students and teachers will face the coming onslaught of the RAAATS, or Reasonable Applied Academic  Assessment for Tatek Students. The RAATS replaced the TSAAR, or Tatek Sector Assessment of Academic Readiness, and is twice as hard as the TSAAR. One teacher, Thurin Therauht, says that the test has put stress into everybody's lives. "Children are up studying for a test that is harder than the last one. Tatek is making me teach to the test. This will not help our children learn. They will only learn test-taking strategies and nothing that will pertain to real life, and on top of that, they are making them swim through many academic readiness forms and practices, detracting from social skills that could last a lifetime. " Many students agree. One, Huirt Herran, says that they must prepare for "trickery." "The test is hard, man," he says. "They are trying to trick us on that test, and the teachers don't teach us anything except what is on the test. They make too big a hype over it. I would rather have recess than go through this mess of test-preparing strategies." Parents are in agreement, too. Heidi Herran says "This test is absurd. They should learn social skills instead of studying for a test that is stupid, long, and boring. And there are so many rules and regulations, like my baby would cheat  on the test." Meanwhile, Tatek sector educators are planning the next installment in the Test Saga. -

Library System Receives Boost

The LIBRARY (Library Investment to buy Books, Restore and Reinvigorate our Young and Old Libraries) Act passed the Senate 152-21. The Act would provide new funding to libraries to buy books, magazines and computers and restore the libraries. "I was impelled to introduce this act after seeing the sorry shape of our libraries." says the bills sponsor, Robert Langley. "They lacked encyclopedias, fiction books, anything you could think of..."

Food Poisoning Strikes Cenaci

Bell peppers contaminated with an unknown substance reached Cenaci and were promptly served at the Chancellor's Senate Meeting. Several senators, including Victor Chief and Lando Calpandian, and Kyn Tucin himself were stricken with the virus. They had a day off from office to rest and recuperate from their sudden illness. The contaminated bell peppers were stopped before they could reach the Royal High School's cafeteria. Symptoms of the food poisoning include diarrhea, vomiting, and loss of appetite. 

Revolution!

Waterloo's citizens are tired of an autocratic government and protests sprang up on many Waterlooian worlds, including Waterloo, Plaeclara, Plaeclara Rex, Mirabilia, and Gallia Belgica, some of Waterloo's most populated planets. Protesters decried the influence of the royal family and asked for a democratic government based on Ceni's. Waterlooian officials ordered many troops to fire on the protesters, but since many were Waterlooian citizens, the soldiers refused to fire on the protesters and joined them instead. Waterloo then brought out its Regaliter Guard, the elite guards that guarded the emperor. Those guards slaughtered 1,520 peaceful protesters on Mirabilia, 2,697 on Gallia Belgica, 1,205 on Plaeclara Rex, 3,658 on Plaeclara, and 5,967 on Waterloo. They also let out tear gas, mustard gas, and chlorine onto the protesters, killing 10,892. The Cenian Senate held an emergency session a few days ago and passed a resolution 154-10 condemning the violence. But Waterlooian officials refused to heed the calls to stop the violence and began to shell the San Carlos Apartments on Mirabilia. 5,236 innocent civilians and their families were killed. Another 2,998 were killed when government officials shelled the Bacca City Hospital on the planet Bacca, killing wounded civilians. Protesters were outraged. Waterloo officials demanded that protesters stop the protests in order for the violence to stop.  But protesters continued airing their grievances against Waterloo, Fon Que, and Consul Demetrius. Groups of protesters tore down statues of Emperor Wolfe Wellesley and looted from the Imperial Museum of Dynastic History, where Kenny the Kind's military regalia was displayed. Waterloo officials then destroyed the Hunitia Apartment Building, with 54,789 innocents not connected to the revolution inside. 4,622 survived. Protesters then petitioned the Interplanetary Medicine Board to supply medicine to wounded protesters who were dying of easily treated injuries. But Waterloo's Duma passed 456-0 a resolution that banned any member if any aid agency from entering the country. The Emperor approved it 10 minutes after it was passed. Today Waterlooian citizens are preparing for a revolution, one that would allow them to have a free country.
