Morning Star

Article 28: Election

The elections have indeed taken place. Due to pressures from the people, all members of the government have stepped down and have decided not to run for reelection. All except for Eliza Wellington. Vision has been changing. These elections are a sign of that. Everything about the event was unprecedented, from the people elected, to the public’s response, to even the fact that we were having elections at all.

We cannot let this happen to us, to our people. Vision must stay true.

Due to the recent shift in public opinion, we have sped up the pace of our elections. Our first, as you put it, “real” elections will take place a week from today. There will be two delegates from each province, as well as seven from the capital. We hope that this will mollify you and that it will curb your wrath. We are only passionate revolutionaries, we were not meant to be leaders. We do not exactly know what it was that we did to deserve our being condemned in this way. We had hoped that we had proved yourself earlier.
