Voting is open, and I'm more excited and motivated about this term than maybe any other. With membership numbers up, activities across the board are increasing, and I can't wait to continue to build on that.

I'll answer any questions anyone (citizen or not) have about my plans for the next term!

My nation tried to make a bird based internet, but something must have gone horribly wrong because connecting to the internet is now illegal :( all i wanted was birds with tiny internet backpacks or something.
I also had that problem hahahaha I choose to improve the Internet :/ Too bad, but at least your birds will be happier :)

I just allowed the rich to have unions and my Average Income of the Poor rose up. Is there an economist or somebody that can explain what just happened? Cause I think it should be the Average Income of the Rich that rose up.

HELLO DEAR SPIRITUSIANITES! It is time... TO VOTE! Time... FOR DEMOCRACY! Time... TO ELECT THE FIRST FRY AT THE BOTTOM OF THE BAG!!!
Voting will begin in ONE WEEK on JUNE 1ST!!!!
Once you're in the race, you may begin campaigning on the RMB and using dispatches. HAVE FUN AND DON'T BREAK ANYTHING!!
THE LIST:
1. Kumquatian confederacy
2. Kialga
3. Dootdootdootlydoot
4. Bruh survivor
5. Kasadea
6. Legendus
And the answer is yes. I (KiKi) do love you!
Why should you vote for Kiki to be the Fry at the Bottom of the Bag?
Well simple! The Fry at the Bottom of the Bag is the one you never realized you had or wanted, but it's always the best fry out of the whole bag. You get that moment of pure bliss as you finish the bag with that wonderful last fry. It is best summarized in the following poem I have written.
The Fry at the Bottom of the Bag
The one that is certainly not a drag
So we shall not lollygag
And get on with this moment of swag
I am very similar to that fry
While I am the best, I am very shy
My rights to this position you cannot deny
I cannot be quick to say goodbye
So your vote should go to KiKi
His pants are always khaki
And while he never goes to ski
He knows how to edit a wiki
And with that, I conclude on why you should vote me as The Fry at the Bottom of the Bag. In many ways I am very similar to the Fry that lingers at the Bottom of the Bag. I am a piece of joy you don't expect when you're finishing your meal. I am soft and lovable, and even though I can be very salty, I make the entire experience so much more enjoyable. Remember to cast your vote for KiKi (Kialga) on June 1st for The Fry at the Bottom of the Bag!
And a campaign promise! If you all elect me as The Fry at the Bottom of the Bag, everyone gets a free pair of khakis with potatoes in the pockets!
ALSO! Be sure to check out my totally original song cover for the second half of this campaign!
Do you tend to save the best for last?
Well then keep reading and you'll find out why you should vote for Kasadea
to be The Fry at the Bottom of the Bag.
Have you ever felt like your taste buds were having a party?
Have you ever tasted something that you felt like you were seeing the face of god?
Have you ever tasted a fry that doesn't compare to any other?
Well, that is what Kasadea feels like...
Wouldn't you like to save it at the bottom of the bag for the end?
...
Or would you rather cover that taste with an inferior fry?
...
If you vote for Kasadea, you'll also receive a free unlimited refill for your favorite soda!
Hello Spiritus,
Don't vote for me. Just don't do it. I'm dangerously underqualified to handle any position of importance and an overall terrible candidate for myriad reasons. I have no experience in government. I'm relatively inactive on the RMB, the forum, and the Discord. Furthermore, I have nothing to contribute to the progress and welfare of this region I have little to no stake in. And so, if elected, I would first consider a heinous mistake to have occurred. Under my purely superficial rule as the stale fry of Spiritus, you can reasonably expect nothing to change. The items of business most immediately relevant to the typical Spiritan's life are luckily left in the hands of qualified elected individuals like Delegate The Salaxalans, and you might not even notice how terrible I actually am until the next Fry election. Still, would you really want to set off this bold new chapter in Spiritus history on such a low note? I think not. Don't vote Dootdootdootlydoot. This isn't a ploy at reverse psychology. It is in fact because of reverse psychology that I suspect getting exactly zero votes will be much more difficult than simply getting the most. If I don't make my message known, I could reasonably expect a few uninformed votes. 44 Spiritans did their civic duty in the last RMB poll held, and a staggering 26 voted for the temperature system named after the guy who designed it backwards. Clearly, I also cannot trust my fellow citizens to make intelligent voting decisions in a vacuum. Spiritus will decide the fates of my competitors as a collective, and I wish them all the best. But my campaign is shattered by just a single individual. Your vote quite literally means more to me than to my opponents. So vote for Kasadea or Kialga. For Legendus or Kumquatian confederacy. Yep, that's it, that's all the candidates. But whatever you do, don't vote Dootdootdootlydoot. My name is Dootdootdootlydoot "Doot" Poop-poop, and I am running to be the first inaugural Fry at the Bottom of the Bag of Spiritus: your FIFatBotBoS. However, to facilitate informed voting decisions during the week of elections (which begins very soon!), I wish to be immediately transparent with the people.
Scientific Studies Suggest Voting for Legendus May Increase Coolness, Attractiveness
In a recent study conducted by the Totally Legit Research Institute of Legendus, Which Is A Real Thing So You Don’t Need To Look It Up (TLRILWIARTSYDNTLIU), findings are pointing strongly to a correlation between support of Legendus in the race for Fry at the Bottom of the Bag (FATBOTB) and general awesomeness - not to mention a potential increase in libido.
“Our top researchers have looked at the evidence, and frankly, the numbers don’t lie,” explains Dr. Lucien Kearns, scribblings something very important down on his equally scientific clipboard. “I mean, literally, they don’t lie. Numbers aren’t sentient, they’re incapable of thought. That would just be silly... right?”
Research into the cause of this phenomenon is still ongoing, as current tests have only been performed in controlled conditions, but theories currently suggest that electing Legendus for FATBOTB will have a positive impact on the Spiritus region as a whole, including bumper crops for potato farmers.
"At this rate, we can't find a reason why people shouldn't vote for Legendus," adds Dr. Kearns. "Of course, we're totally legitimate scientists who must remain impartial, but the fact is, Legendus simply appears to be the most sensible choice."
Undoubtedly, a vote for me is a vote for science, logic, and unyielding potatoes!
Don't be a dud, be a spud. Vote Legendus this upcoming Monday!
I do not have a dispatch, for the reasons enclosed here:
Just reminding y'all that I'm an option.
It's not like I have a proper platform or anything, this is just for fun after all.
But, if I do get elected I might do something. And that something could be a really cool thing.
And you'll never know what it is if I don't end up winning.
See ya!

News From Around Europe
Elections in Inquista Produce a Bright Future But a Not-so Bright Archbishop
Inquistans went to the polls on May 4th in order to elect a new College of Bishops (which is the legislature of the country). The Reformist Bloc won a majority with 136 seats, while 73 seats were won by non-affiliated candidates and 21 seats were won by the Progressivists. 9 days later, the College of Bishops elected Mikaela Kligenberg (Reformist) as the 3rd Archbishop of Inquista, who defeated Edward Firoux (Reformist) in a narrow 116-114 vote within the College of Bishops. Archbishop Mikaela Kligenberg is singer, socialite, television personality and daughter of former North Inquistan Archbishop and European Premier Commissioner, Alexander Kligenberg.
Gay Marriage and Other Social Reforms Enacted in Inquista
The first legislative session of the new College of Bishops in Inquista was entirely dedicated to passing several reforms concerning the rights and privileges of Inquista's sexual minorities. Most notably, gay marriage was legalized in the country. The College also banned the practice of conversion therapy, equalized adoption rights for same-sex couples, expanded hate speech laws to include gender expression, and made sex reassignment surgery unnecessary in order to make changes to sex markers on government forms.
An Evergreen Result in Malborya
Kent Evergreen has been elected as the Councillor of Malborya to the European Union, defeating Claudia Leon and Vald Linda in a close contest. Evergreen is an LGBTQ+ activist known for drafting much of Malborya’s recent LGBTQ rights laws, as well as for organizing numerous pride events in Lachte, which is one of Malborya’s most socially conservative regions. Councillor Evergreen has since submitted his bill to ban conversion therapy across Europe to the European Council.
But, But, But His Emails!
Andries van Hoebeek, the former Supreme Councillor of Eastern Haane, has been convicted with criminal charges after a trove of 44,000 emails were uncovered that detailed blackmail, bribery, corruption and plans to eliminate political opponents. Van Hoebeek was aided by Helga Becker, Eastern Haane’s Councillor to the European Union, who has also been indicted. Van Hoebeek and Becker have both been sentenced to fifteen years of paid but fixed labor.
Catalonia is Spain
Spanish President Jesús Aguilar met with Catalonian President Quim Torra in order to ease sovereigntist sentiments within Catalonia. President Aguilar and Catalonian President Torra affirmed their commitment to Spanish unity and announced that they would begin jointly working on measures to allow Catalonia to thrive within Spain In The South.
Are They OK Over There in Mennrimiak?

Later, Prime Minister Frederick Johanson resigned as Prime Minister of Mennrimiak and was succeeded by Prime Minister Sauli Niinistö.
Elections in Icholasen and Fremet
Elections are currently underway in Icholasen and Fremet. Within Icholasen, there are 3 factions currently vying for power: the TANKIES (Transitory Alliance for Nicoleizian Kinship, Internationalism and Economic Strength) led by Bernard Sanders, the ANL (Alliance for the Nicoleizian Left) led by Georgia Francis, and the AEL (Alliance écolo nicoleizienne) led by Carole Baskin. The three largest political parties vying for power in Fremet are Hřyre (the Conservative Party) led by Nikki Oleman, the Liberaldemokraten (Liberal Democrats) led by Ursula von der Leyen, and the Sosialistpartiet (Socialist Party) led by Erna Solberg.
Let Burned Bridges Light the Way
Prime Minister Emryc Isla of Angleter is meeting with Prime Minister Simon Bridges of The united reichs of reitzmag in order to discuss the normalization of relations between the two states. Following Reitzmag’s abduction of Nicoleizian Foreign Secretary Bernard Sanders, the country became an international pariah and was sanctioned by many countries within the European community, including Angleter. Prime Minister Isla hopes to ease retaliatory measures in order to bargain certain trading rights and privileges for Angleteric citizens and businesses within Reitzmag.
Make Europe Great Again!
The Make Europe Great Again Foundation has been founded to continue the movement created by Dragan Trympov in May's European Commission elections. The aim of MEGA is to drain the swamp in Europolis and to take the fight to the globalist elite. Several European parties and their leaders have joined MEGA, and they hope to eventually turn to the foundation into a Eurogroup within the European Council.
Instant Democracy, Just Add Water
During a recent European Council discussion, Speaker Edward Firoux removed Reitzmag’s Councillor to the European Union, Friedrich van Allen, for being an unelected member of the European Council, as he succeeded his predecessor without being democratically elected to his position, which violates the Elected and Accountable Council Act. The united reichs of reitzmag has since organized a “rushed” election which would take place in 4 days, without any debates, and would be organized by Friedrich van Allen himself.
The Allied Defense Organization
A defence organization known as the Allied Defense Organization (ADO) has been formed between several European Union member states.
