I know it can happen with anyone, but you all know my feelings on raiding. It makes me nervous to have one as our President, even if he doesn't do anything, which he probably won't. Besides, that's not my biggest issue with his candidacy, I also find his manifesto unimpressive and his career in the region dwarfed by Marconian's.

The marconian state
I have no intention of attacking Snowflame on the basis of his membership within The Black Hawks. I wish him the best of luck in his campaign and I look forward to a good debate.
Finally, every reporters dream is to cover a big juicy scandal. But is this one? I first heard about the possible election fraud from a post from a Thaecian on the RMB of The Embassy, which I regularly monitor for news. So I traveled into this large and hospitable region. As usual I state my intentions and get straight to work trying to figure out the details. I have constructed a timeline below so you can get the gist of the events. Then I will go into detail of how this whole thing affects the region, and its nations.
June 30th 2020, Midday: It is discovered that the President, Xernon and a few other nations have been ejected from the WA due to breaking the rules.
The gossip and rumors explode. Has Xernon created these puppets to vote for him in the election? Or maybe they were framed? Well, we really can't say right now. As no information on it has been released to the public. But we do know that the current President can't actually be President because they are no longer a citizen, a snap election is in the making to correct this. This is the official ruling from the court:
------------------------------------ The High Court of Thaecia finds the results of the June 2020 Thaecian General Elections Illegal due to Section 1.2a of Article 7 of L.R. 022 The Electoral Commission & Reform Act
The High Court of Thaecia grants The Electoral Commission permission to recount the Prime Minister, Senate, and House of Commons June 2020 elections. The High Court of Thaecia grants The Electoral Commission permission to hold new elections for the President of Thaecia
Approved by Chief Justice Lemonadia -------------------------------------
MPs are also rather uncertain wether they will be able to keep their newly appointed seats in the midst of this turmoil. The Prime Minister, Korsinia, and the Electoral Commissioner, Dizgovzy, have banned talking about the alleged fraud on the RMB. Instead citizens revert to talking about dogs, ice cream, and travel. Nothing is confirmed, and Xernon is yet to make a statement.
I think this quote sums up the situation right now:
"Okay so legally we don't have a President right now. As much as I know that we should be slowing down, that fact is enough that I feel it is necessary to proceed with the snap election. I shall keep you all updated.
Forgive me. These are crazy times." - Dizgovzy, Election Commissioner
July 1st, 2020: Well, nothing new. Dizgovzy is having a bit of a rough time handling this, but the people or Thaecia are supportive. Apparently Xernon was a friend of many in the region, and they are having a hard time thinking of Xernon as a cheat. But the law will be upheld, as has been assured by various government officials
July 2nd - 3rd, 2020: Xernon still hasn't said anything, and there's I son new info. I may have to leave soon if nothing happens
July 5th, 2020: I don't think we'll ever know what went on that fateful day when the trusted president of the region was ejected from the WA. Xernon remains silent, and no new evidence has been uncovered. Thaecia continues on, to forget the betrayal of a friend. Remember kids, election fraud is bad. And no I take my leave and head to some other region where scandal, drama, or intrigue can be found.
PS: Thaecia is a great region and if you aren't happy with your current one or are looking for one to call your home, check it out
