Kartot Tarat Wins CCU Convention; Promises to Never Run Again

Am ailing Kartot Tarat of the Cenian Conservative Union has won the 1AC convention.With no major surprises headed his way, he won the balloting handily on the first round. In his acceptance speech, he promised to never run again for the job of President or Prime Minister. Tekian Representative Cara Crantat has secured the nod for President against HoloNet broadcaster Davet Laraud. With the help of Fransisco dos Santos' delegates, she squeaked a majority. Laraud came in second place. Tarat's pick as Deputy Prime Minister is Keermar the Gug, Representative of Afrogug. Crantat has chosen Laraud as Vice Presidential pick as tribute to his "tireless campaigning", but most attribute the pick to his less conservative nature to appeal to swing voters, especially in Afrogug. The party is really going for Afrogug, which is widely conservative. The Senator for that seat, Nora the Gug, defeated her opponent, Yuna the Gug, by appealing to more urban elements. But this year, they are pouring money into Afrogug to reclaim it.

Cenian Conservative Union Primary Goes Overlooked

While all of the spotlight has gone on the high-profile Cenian Social Liberal Party, the right end of the political spectrum has primaries too. Cara Crantat, Ban Ban Morgan, Davet Laraud, Ephco Samjon, and Fransisco dos Santos are all competing for President, and Kartot Tarat, Felicity Jonson, and Serric Jerza are battling it out for Prime Minister. The favored candidate for President by party leaders, Cara Crantat, is in last place to the new front-runner, Davet Laraud. He swooped up the Cenaci sector and other large sector primaries, where the conservatives are more liberal. But Crantat is expected to win almost everywhere else. Kartot Tarat is expected to swoop up his party's nomination for Prime Minister, with his competitors not offering much of a challenge.
