Recall of Chair of Assembly Omega
#11

Honestly, in agreement with Tsu - I'm kind of confused here more than anything. Perhaps this is a problem resolved by Omega taking on a deputy or two as was done previously?

He had Deputies. That is not any reason for his lack of participation in a role he was supposed to do.

And now... Other than bringing this to the Assembly's attention, its all moot point. He has resigned, and an election can be held.


My question is, can we slide Chair into the current election cycle, or do we have to wait for this to be over...?

The Election Commissioner has said elections will be held at the same time as the cabinet elections.
Above all else, I hope to be a decent person.

This is ridiculous. I feel everyone in this forum has just stuck their heads in the sand for a while, there's madness and hypocrisy in most sssembly threads now.

Hey, I have a bunch of issues. You don't need to care.

If this was all as problematic as we're making it out to be, wouldn't the voters have objected?

Why he was re-elected? Honestly, I suspect it was primarily the early APC bloc vote. Inb4 "that's the problem with parties" - yeah, you're right that this is a problem if a party doesn't deliberate things responsibly. Had I ran for re-election as MoRA the last time around, TIL would not have supported me and for good reasons.

This is partially true, The APC block vote was one of the key deciders in the vote, but over half of the votes were cast before a majority of the APC had actually voted, and they were already generally for Omega. I'm going off public votes since that's all I can see. We had a party vote and discussion about voting for him... We also stressed, that you didn't have to vote for him just because the party endorsed him. We have a policy of naturally supporting/endorsing candidates who run from our party, we still vote on it though.

Incumbency advantages are real. Omega won because he was the incumbent, really. These issues weren't really studied before the election. But several TSPers have in the past couple days gone to look for laws and noticed they weren't ever updated. So that tipped them off and they looked to compare the speed with previous Chairs.
