I suppose I should go first. For those of you who don't know me, I am Omega, the founder of the modern APC and a former Chair of the Assembly. I am a Prelate (judge) in Lazarus and I am a Deputy Vizier (Deputy Minister) for Public Relations in Osiris. I also run South Pacific News.
So before I get into what I want to see in the next 8 months I would like to commend Griffin, Spenty and Lavoret for their work over the last 8 months expanding the APC and working to draft laws. We have come a long way and it was a pleasure to serve with them. I could not be more proud of Griffin's leadership of the party and I hope to see the growth continue under the next chair. Now, what do I want in the next 8 months? Well, it comes down to 3 things: drafting better laws, increasing member engagement and continuing our growth. Now I am incredibly proud of the work we put into the prosed changes to the Sunshine Act and CRS reform measures. Despite being able to work in a civil fashion during our drafting, and coming to amicable compromise we were not drafting the best laws. We need to make sure our proposals not only represent what we want to see changed but also are not too extreme of changes. I believe this will require asking for some advice from non-party members, and making sure we take into account what the changes we propose will look like once implemented and be thinking about the implementation and if it would be feasible. On member engagement, I think this requires having more discussion on individual laws before the Assembly and making sure we are not as quick to just let the APCRC decide things. I think the party as a whole needs to be engaged by the APCRC and I would like to encourage that. Even if it as simple as asking "how can we help y'all get involved here?" and then hearing our members out. On growth, I believe we have done a good job over these last 8 months. I would like to see a 3rd general member added to the APCRC in the next 8 months and I think if we can engage members the party will continue to see growth. As always if you have any questions feel free to PM me or to ask them here. Above all else, I hope to be a decent person.
Has Been What's Next? CoA: August 2016-January 2017

I suppose I will go now!
I too would like to Commend the current APCRC for their fantastic job over the last 8 months, especially Lavoret, who only joined the APCRC last month, but knew what to do as if she had been on there the whole time! It was felt really good knowing that the APCRC could work as we envisioned it in the first party summit! My goals in my term as Chair of the party was to double our party membership (then 6) by the next party election (now 12), and to see at least one more member of the party in the TSP government (then 1, now 4). I can say that I completed them  !Now that I am running for Vice-Chair, My new goals go hand in hand with my old ones, Along with supporting the next Chairs goals (and that of the entire APCRC), I would like to see the party grow by 50% (6 People) or two more general member spots! I would like to see at least 1 more member in the TSP government, I would like the APC as a whole to be more active, draft laws better with more input, but most important, develop a deeper sense of feeling of family within the party. I look forward to serving as your next Vice-Chair of the APC! If y'all have any questions, I would love to answer those! -Griffindor/Ebonhand

Hey, everyone. I am Escade and fairly new to the party! I think what I have liked about is that we are active and trying to make changes. They may not always be perfect or work as well as we want them to do but instead of whining or complaining we are actually actively trying to improve things in a polite way.
What I would like to see for the party is to continue taking interesting in building the South Pacific and being aware of what is going on and actively trying to fix the things we see that need improvement. In addition, working with TSPers outside of the party and get more of a sense of how different groups or individuals feel about issues before proposing legislation may also be helpful. Then, increasing party participation in government so that members can be see what it's like on the inside is also a goal!

Hi! I'm Spenty!
I believe that the APCRC has done a lot of things this term and I would like to commend them for a well job done. On the other hand I also believe that the APC can also be better and greater. I would like to push for transparency in the government and in the party as well. I also believe that boosting activity is one of my priorities for this term. I would like to see more people from our party in the government while boosting the number of active members. We should also work with other parties and independents more like how we collaborated in the bill for court reform. I think we should not only recruit members for the sake of numbers but we should do it in order to nurture and train them and make them feel that we are close friends or family. That is all and thanks!
Nominations and campaign posting will end in about 18 hours!

Hey there, I'm Lavoret.
I'm a legislator and the latest APCRC member. Before I was elected to the APCRC I wasn't very vocal, but I wanted to be. I decided to run for my current position in an attempt to educate myself on the intricacies of the game. Also, I would like to applaud the current APCRC for the work they have put into this term. My goals for the party are that we increase our membership. And that's all, thanks so much guys!
Voting is now open!
