I hereby announce that the sign ups have closed and that the contest is between Eriatarka1 and Sir William Buttersworth. A ballot will now take place of party MPs. All MPs should PM their vote to TTF, who will then pass on the final result to me tomorrow evening. |

Were Eriatarka and Sir William allowed to vote? Because if they were, and assuming they did, this was basically a vote by one person (reading the actual voting figures, not the made up ones) |

If it helps, I can say I did vote if I was allowed to, for myself, and abstained if I was not allowed to do so. I included it all in the PM to TTF. Do we actually have 5 members? |

While in practice this election may not have been as open as it otherwise could have been, that's only to be expected given current party membership levels, which are themselves a result of current simulation membership levels. What's important is that there is now a division of powers within the party, and that a framework and precedent has been set for the future. |
