The Great Big BBS Political Opinion Poll!

The debates are over. The battle-lines have been drawn. We’re into the final few weeks before Nov. 8th.

Only one question remains. Which way will the BBS vote?

Due to software restrictions, the polls are split into 4. The winners of each poll will enter into a run-off vote on Nov 8th along with the write-in with the greatest number of likes.

Nominations were taken both from regulars and selected comments. If your favoured option is not here, you can still add them in the comments. Campaigning will be permitted. If you have any further related questions, post them below. Unrelated questions can be posted in that thread.

Thank you for voting. :slight_smile:
As they say, an informed electorate is the millstone of the democratic process. Or something.

There’s some very strong competition in that group. Perhaps a campaign video would help?

They should at least come in second.

In the words of the great political philosophiser Ren McCormack, people who voted against Princess Pricklepants should jump back

I missed the nominations (I am in the middle of moving house), so I will write in “Full Communism”.

Question: Oh dammit, I’m realizing that the anarchist won’t have a gender b/c fuck you anarchy. I was just getting some serious steampunk vibes there.

Also, the Lobster dish should win, everyone knows that. Who doesn’t like spam? Or Lobster? Or a fried egg on top? And if they do, then fuck them, they’ve probably hacked your server or at least tried to rig the election and definitely annexed land from another nation. Shallots, people, they’re where the future is also again.

With just over a week to go, voters are reminded that polls will be open until the authorized time, after which they shall close.

Anyone who has not yet registered may do so by visiting our Voter Enrollment Center (conveniently located on picturesque Macquarie Island) with the correct form of ID.

And remember, your vote counts. Sometimes more than once!
