[COM] [Elections] M.M Endorses Angelina

• M.M, Head Administrator, posted an endorsement of Angelina Lotara Zurchli(Achain) in the Voice of Sedition, the Nugget Gang's official newspaper.

• In this post, M.M warned against letting power fall into the hands of an "oppurtunistic party" or "establishment politics".

• Trabardia, Angelina's opponent, responded to this with a uwufied mock version, which many reacted poorly too, calling it the "Elmer Fudd Treatment", and "disgusting".

[Council of Ministers] [Election] Spoilt Ballot

• After a long process, Eric Arthur Blair(Czechoslovakia and Zakarpatria), changed his votes for the Council of Ministers.

• He changed his vote for Mars Suckerbird to one for CAD, accusing Mars of espionage and Zennyist extremism, and his vote for Trabardia to one for Angelina.

C.A.D Resigns From All Government Positions

• C.A.D apologized for using his main nation with regional officer privileges to send a regional telegram in support of Angelina for First Minister.

• While this is not technically illegal, C.A.D called it "indeed very unethical".

• Citing concerns about the embarassment of this situation and what example is being set for the Bloc, C.A.D resigned from all constitutionally defined positions and now plans to "impose himself on a period of exile of unspecified length".

• Many have protested this move, including C.A.D's opponent for Minister of Information, Mars Suckerbird, who made this post.
