@MysterySkull

Tired : Anyone think this is rigged?
Wired: Knowing it's all been rigged from the start.
From the first to last.

@TheAverage

I don't get government... a guy who refused to announce their platform wins but the guy who led in public polls got eliminated??

@RemyFitzgerald

Seriously though. Congratulations to the winners tonight. Your work is cut out for you, and now more than ever, your constituents will be watching and holding you accountable. Do well. Prove everyone wrong, please.

Feline Party to dominate politics in the 10th Congress

10:02 PM EST

Harry Kennedy

The Feline Party will become a dominating force in the 10th Congress, with two representatives and the governorship. While they don't have a majority in the Legislature, they will only need to convince 1/3 to guarantee them supply.

Ella Bright-Starr is giving their acceptance speech

9:58 PM EST

Harry Kennedy

I look forward to working with everybody, whether you like me or don't ... I will listen and my phone will always be on

Elected Representatives are giving their acceptance speeches

9:55 PM EST

Harry Kennedy

Cassie Kendrick and Astra Lillegård-Marino have given a speech. Tommy Merlin was not present

Ella Bright-Starr elected Governor

9:39 PM EST

Harry Kennedy

San Andreas next governor will be Ella Bright-Starr.

The 10th congress will be made up of:

• Jack Burton
• Emilie Lillegård-Marino
• Astra Lillegård-Marino
• Tommy Merlin
• Cassie Kendrick

We don't have the full information about the representative vote, its unclear if the three other elected made it to an outright quota.

Ella Bright-Starr maintains lead

9:39 PM EST

Harry Kennedy

Representative count still continues, with no one else having a quota to win a seat just yet. Adam Wrangler has votes have been redistributed.

Ella Bright-Starr continues to lead by 6% with % of the expected vote counted. All the candidates present still look a little worried, the margin is only 6% which is quite close and certainly not a definitive answer.

A lot of chatter, not much dancing

9:31 PM EST

Harry Kennedy

With only a handful of results in, there aren't too many people dancing as the music plays.

Second batch of results

9:25 PM EST

Harry Kennedy

No representative candidate has reached the quota to be elected meaning the count continues. Michael White has the lowest level of votes meaning their votes will be re-distrubted.

Ella Bright-Starr continues to lead by 5%

First batch of results from the SAEC

9:10 PM EST

Harry Kennedy

Our first results have arrived.

Governor: Ella Bright-Starr has a lead of 9% over Liam Cavanagh

Reps: Jack Burton and Emilie Lillegård-Marino have been elected.

Harry Kennedy

Tonights host Becks Lawson has kicked off the event while we await some results.

Results should start arriving soon

8:33 PM EST

We normally start to see results around 9:00pm on general election night, however depending on how many people voted it could take a bit for the results to start to trickle in.

The Results Party

8:33 PM EST

Tonights result party will be at the French Laundry near the DHS building. There is public parking on site (see the signs around the venue.)

This election has been filled with its ups and downs, but overall has been relatively ordinary. Fortunately this time around enough people signed up to be candidates meaning there wont be any automatic wins like the last congress.

This election is for the 10th Congress of San Andreas, kinda wild that we are now up to the 10th... I can still remember the first congress... perhaps I'm getting old, anyways, on with the news.
