  • THE FIRST UNDERGROUND
    REPUBLIC ELECTIONS

    PRESIDENTIAL PRELIMINARIES

    THE PRESIDENTIAL PRELIMINARIES BEGIN

    The Underground Republic (UGR) is ready to hold the Presidential Preliminaries, which pits the 5 presidential candidates for the top 4 presidential slots in the election. These are HOPE WINS presidential candidate Kiyotaka Ishimaru, NTP presidential candidate Trigglypuff, Rapture presidential candidate Andrew Ryan, TSS presidential candidate Guzma, and Independent presidential candidate Commander Superjolt. Four of these candidates will advance to the next round of elections, while one is forced to drop out. The power is in your hands!​

    PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES

    These candidates are up for voting in this phase. You may only choose among these candidates for your votes.​










    VOTING PHASE

    As per the election code, all of the candidates of the election season must vote on who advances to the next round of elections. Each candidate and voter are given 3 sets of votes, with a value of 1, 3, and 5 votes. To vote, please use the format [VOTE position] Name of Candidate.

    You must give out 3 sets of votes, and indicate each one on how many votes you may give. If there is no indication, the first vote will get the 5 votes, second vote with 3 votes, and the last vote with 1 vote.

    You may not vote for yourself, or if you are in a party, your party mates.

    For the candidates up for vote, you must also answer the pressing concern that will be given to you. Non-candidates can choose which candidate has the better answer to the pressing concern. If a candidate gets the most number of votes in this category, they will get a 20% increase in votes for this phase. If no voter steps forward with an interest, I as the UGEC head will determine who gets the increase in votes.

    Once the phase ends, the votes are tallied first, then the vote modifiers are applied to the votes, which come from your actions, in which the final votes are then received.

    The candidate with the least number of votes is forced to drop out of the election, unless they are saved by the save vote, in which case the candidate with the second least number of votes is forced to drop out.

    Votes in this election season are cumulative, meaning that the votes you receive in this voting phase will carry over towards the next voting phase you are participating.

    The voting phase ends one day (or on the weekend, whichever comes first) after the last candidate's votes are sent.

    That is all for now, good luck presidential candidates, and let the presidential preliminaries begin!​

    PRESSING CONCERN

    Attention Presidential Candidates. The Underground Republic is so called a transition government, going from a former state of the Nation of PC, to a full fledged country. The road is going to be bumpy for everyone in the UGR. As the future Underground President, how would you stabilize the situation of the republic?​

    PRESIDENTIAL PRELIMINARIES UPDATE:

    Independent Secretarial Candidate Taylor Swift failed to send in her save vote. Her votes in the next voting phase are cut by 30%. If she does this again, regardless if it was consecutively, she will be forced to drop out.

    That is all from the UGEC. Thank you.

    Stability through instability. I will not promise true stability in an impossibly unstable time where we are only just trying to establish ourselves. Instead we will embrace instability by becoming TRIGGERED by the inconvenience and unpredictability, forging a strong national identity and a unity among our people that will allow us to outlast these unpredictable times.

    In these trying times, stability can only be acquired if the people take a stand together or unite together for one cause. I believe that I can best address the problem of instability in the presence of the transition of the Underground Republic from being a state to a full-fledged country. By focusing on efforts to gather the people together such as by addressing important concerns through proper dialogue and by promoting the value of unity through common goals, I can provide stability and trust within the citizens. Though this may be a difficult and challenging plan, I promise to work hard and be persistent in this goal for the greater good of the Underground Republic!

    Well first off, we would need unity among citizens. I would remind our citizens, we are THE UNDERGROUND! This is who we are, the best damn country in the world! With unity, pride, a love of music and an appreciation of robots, we will find strength and prosperity! And unified we shall stay, whether in times of war or times of peace.
