The Results of the 2010 Entmoot Election!

These are the results of the Belgian jury...

No wait, this isn't Eurosong.


These are the results of the 2010 Elections for President of Entmoot:


Curiously, the number of votes went up to 131 in the last hour of the voting window. But your Election committee was diligently watching and Chicago ties with Entmoot are currently being checked.

All votes and voters were thoroughly checked and verified and it is with pleasure that we can announce that the election is VALID!

It was an exciting election, at least from the view of the ballot box. All candidates managed to convince a sizable chunk of the voters, apart from X Perry Mint whose result is... well, let's say less than stellar...

However, there can be only one president- well, two maybe in case of a draw, but we didn't have that this year, so for now we'll have just one.

Anyway, allow us to present the winner of the 2010 Entmoot Election, the new President of the Entmoot:


Acalewia!


Congratulations to our new president!

I wish, on behalf of the Entmoot Freedom Party, to be the first to congratulate Acalewia for her election to be Entmoot's President

Congratulations Acally!!!

We've had a great election campaign and it was very competitive!

Thank you to all who voted for us, we're grateful for your support, alas we didn't pull through this time. But the banner of freedom and push for a more magical 'Moot never ends, so count on the Entmoot Freedom Party to persist in it's fight on behalf of all Entmootian Citizens

Also a big thank you to Eärniel who has organized an impeccable election round true to the spirit of Entmoot!

Long live Entmoot!!! Hooray, hooray, hooray!

Congratulations Acalewia! May your rule be wise and just, and hope you'll enjoy all the upcoming presidential dinner parties

Thanks Midge, Coffeehouse, X Perry Mint and all the rest for a most exciting and fun election! It makes one proud to be a voter

Et douze points pour Eärniel, for a job well done! You've set a great example for your countrymen

I feel that I ought to re-iterate my opposition to all power structures.

That said, on a personal level: CONGRATULATIONS!

Again, thanks to everyone who participated in the election. The election was fun, but it was funner to see the 'Moot active again. And yes, 'funner' is a real word. Acally just signed it into law .

Hurray for Earniel's organizing power!

I think we should also honor Inked's beautifully orchestrated EuroEnglish accent, and not least Jonathan's death-defying escape from the most secure governmental prison compound ever!

A Thank you goes out to everyone that voted. I had some very formidable competition and I am honored that the People of Entmoot have chosen me to lead them for the next two years. I promise to be a fair president.
I want to thank CoffeeHouse and his team and Midge for a wonderful Campaign. You guys made it fun.

Thank you everyone.

Add my congrats to Acalewia and hector, and consolations to Coffee and Midge- though I was hoping to see a hung vote leading to weeks of backroom wheeling and dealing.

And, yes, thanks to Earniel, for not leaving hundreds stranded outside voting booths unable to cast a ballot...

Waitasecond. I'm from Chicago, and I've got lots of ties - but I don't think I have 131 of them! What's going on here??

I also want to extend my thanks to everyone who participated in the Election, those who put themselves forward as candidates and campaigned, those that poked people into action and those who provided entertainment, and naturally everyone who voted! Obviously, without you all this election wouldn't have gone as well as it had.

However, I don't think anyone will blame me if I never want to see or hear 'Euro-English' again!

Only because our Entmoot parties don't have to make a coalition together to form a government, otherwise I'd be the first one to run screaming to the hills. Real elections next month. *groan*

Wow. I don't think I realized that I actually kind of wanted to be president. I'm pretty disappointed.

However: Congratulations, Acally!

Congrats to the winners. The one good thing about losing an election is you cant get blamed for anything. Im kind of shocked we had over a hundred votes though! Do we have a lot of lurkers that interested in our internal politics?
