Please make sure to post an actual campaign within the permitted timeframe. Posting a thread that says "Yes" is not what I would call a campaign.

The law states that "[t]o be eligible to be included in a voting ballot, any candidate must post a campaign in an area designated by the Election Commissioner. The campaign must prominently include a truthful declaration of all potential conflicts of interest the candidate may have within and outside of the South Pacific." The law does not state that the campaign must be an "actual campaign", or have substantial content. By posting this thread and publishing a conflict of interest I have met the requirements to be put on the ballot.

I'm sure legislators will take that attitude into account when voting starts.

For anyone not in the know, this is not a serious campaign. That should be obvious by my single word campign.

This isn’t a funny joke, and joke campaigns need to be clearly marked as such.

There is nothing inside the "Declarations of Candidacy" thread that would tell me that I cannot run a joke campaign that is not marked as such. As I am aware there is no law stating this. If I am wrong please quote the law that states this. Furthermore, I think that it should be obvious that my campaign is not serious because who besides myself would vote for me in the absence of a more substantial post. So, if you personally think that such a campaign must be clearly marked as such then add it into law. Therefore, despite your personal opinion, my candidacy complies with the law of the South Pacific.

Joke campaigns don't need to be marked as such - see my last dozen or so election campaigns - but they do need to be funny. This really isn't.
