I agree with what others have said, I don't like seeing people run unopposed. Hopefully it won't happen again. For one of the largest regions in the game, it shouldn't ever happen, but probably will.

Good luck to all those running for elections.

Skimmed the earlier stuff really, but you mentioned results of the recent survey - wasn't that only started a few days ago? Surprised you have gone through these responses already, as I hadn't got around to filling it out yet (had forgotten to be honest).
