3rd Prime Minister election
Candidates
In this election ondrag1 was the only candidate. No electoral posters have been made, but only some representatives expressions and sentences. No discussion took place in the official election channel.
Discussion
In the discussion channel, the public only asked some general questions. Not in the discussion channel, but in the general nation text channel, people were only slightly talking about ondrag1's programme. They were also joking about the election as the election isn't fun and exciting. Additionally, they were thinking about if they rigged the election by either not voting or turning in invalid votes, so ondrag1 wouldn't get any votes.
Election
The election took place because the constitution requires at least 10% of citizens to vote for a candidate in order for him to win. The percentage was reached less than 12 hours after the start of the election. Some voters decided to cast invalid votes as a joke and as a form of protest. At 17:15 UTC the official result of the election was announced with the final results being:
2nd Prime Minister election
This has been the first Prime Minister election with live updated number of votes during the voting session.
Candidates
In this election, the contestors were: Alan_Lime, eke223, emmettaaron and ondrag1. All of those candidates did not participate in the last election except for eke223. None of those candidates were former Prime Ministers. All of the candidates were in the Royal Council. The jobs can be seen in Terra Mariana under "Government".
Alan_Lime
Alan_Lime made a total of 6 campaigning posters, with all of them, except one, containing some kind of propaganda. All of his posters were made as a joke, except one, which is serious, but has many grammatical errors in it. His programmes were: Better internal management, unification of the Baltics, material distribution, financial support and town funding.
eke223
eke223 made a total of 6 campaigning posters, with all of them having the same scheme; the same blue/redish backround and his skin in the lower left hand corner with a text in front of it saying: Vote for eke223. He had some kind of block or item in the middle of the poster to make it more appealing. His programmes were: Army reforms, more jobs, population rise, public farms, shopping district in Hiiumaa and a public villager trading hall for the entire Terra Mariana population.
emmettaaron
emmettaaron made a total 6 campaigning posters, with all of them having the same scheme: the same different-coloured triangle in the upper right hand corner with some kind of text announcing the programme of the poster and at the bottom a text saying: Vote for emmettaaron! In every poster, there is some kind of symbol or block in the middle with text. His programmes were: town funding, material distribution, declaring and protecting national landmarks, more appealing CTM tunnels, funding for better structures and bringing back the Flora and Fauna in Terra Mariana.
ondrag1
ondrag1 made a total of 6 campaigning poster, with all of them having a hypothetical quote of someone complaining and a text below of it saying a solution for this problem. All of them have a low-resolution backround and different coloured text, with most of them not fitting in with the backrounds. The texts have many grammatical errors. His programmes were: ideas, decision making, more power, food distribution, refunding of armour in battles and one poster saying that he would try his best to make the things happen even if he isn't becoming the Prime Minister. He also said that peace is the key.
Discussion
There were multiple discussions about the Prime Minister election, like eleborating on someone's posters and some memes too. There were heavy discussions between eke223 and emmettaaron. Mostly about their posters and how they want to implement their ideas in the nation. According to some the 'most thrilling election ever'.
Election
The election started at 17:00 UTC on the 23rd of April 2020.
Headstart
eke223 had a huge lead because he had been inviting many citizens to his town, Reval, to vote for him in the election. emmettaaron thought this was pretty unfair since he only uses his citizens for the votes and for nothing else. He could have done the same thing, but he didn't. He had a huge lead of 6 votes.
Next day
As the next day arrived, eke223 had somewhere around 10 votes. Whereas Alan_Lime had 2, emmettaaron 4 and ondrag1 1 vote. After some convincing and propaganda spreading, emmettaaron gained around 6 more votes, eke223 2 more, Alan_Lime 1 more and ondrag1 2 more votes. After many hours of back and forth, the counter stopped at:
eke223 would have won if the law 1.2b of the Terra Mariana Constitution didn't forbid this. Since there was only a 5% difference between eke223's and emmettaaron's votes, the Supreme Court decided who to vote as the Prime Minister within an hour. The Royal Councillors Alan_Lime, Pickled_Cheetos and TommyJ2 decided emmettaaron should be the 2nd Prime Minister. At 18:00 UTC on the 24th of April emmettaaron gained the role of Prime Minister in the government.
1st Prime Minister election
Candidates
This was the first Terra Mariana Prime Minister election. The only candidates were the two Royal Councillors -nicosecci and eke223.
eke223
His campaign was made up of 3 posters. The ideas brought up by the candidate were changing the flag of Hiiumaa, speeding up the CTM lines by 60% and the creation of a national shopping district. The design followed a simple pattern - A simplistic backround with warm and cold colours shaped in triangles. A text is added onto it describing his standpoint, as well as a headline. In the lower right hand corner, there is a text saying "Vote for eke223" on every poster.
nicosecci
His campaign was made up of 3 posters. The ideas brought up by the candidate were the creation of a free Cepelin distribution for the citizens, the cure of historical buildings and artifacts and the creation of a fund for the creation of buildings in the nation. The posters followed a more complex pattern than eke's - a blurred screenshot as the backround with a dotted line surrounding it. In the lower left hand corner, a text saying "Vote for Nicosecci" can be spotted. Most importantly, a small text concerning his ideas can be seen with a larger quote by him regarding it. In the lower right hand corner, a logo with some text can be viewed.
Discussion
The main discussion that took place was about the change of Hiiumaa's flag, which was strongly criticized. nicosecci was strongly opposing that decision as well. There were rather long discussions about nicosecci's
and eke223's ideas.
Election
The election started on the 3rd April 2020 at 12:00 UTC and lasted 24 hours. The results were announced 4 minutes after the end of the polls, resulting in 8 votes for eke223 and 11 votes for nicosecci with a voting turnout of 37%.
