Mark Derulo

Mark Leslie Derulo (born April 6, 2014) is a Robloxian politician who served as the 4th Governor of Hasher from December 31, 2021 to December 31, 2022. He previously served as the Senate Majority Leader from November 21, 2017 to November 21, 2021, before being defeated by Amanda McCormick. He is known for his criticism of Democrats,
== Governorship (2021 - 2022) ==
=== Protect Sports Bill of 2022 ===
One of Mark Derulo's campaign promises if he was elected was to protect local sports competitions from transgender competitors. In February of 2022, he introduced a new bill that banned transgender athletes from competing in their gender-conforming sport. It entered effect in March 2022.
=== Heartbeat Bill of 2022 ===
After the Supreme Court struck down Smart v. Banks and Casey v. Kimura, Derulo swiftly took the opportunity to pass a bill in Hasher that targeted abortion rights. After Lance v. WRRO was decided in May, affirming that abortion policies are left up to the states, Derulo proposed a Heartbeat bill that banned abortions with no exceptions after three weeks, or when the first heartbeat is detected.
=== Stop Fraud Bill of 2022 ===
In November 2022, Derulo proposed a new bill called the "Stop Fraud Bill", a bill that would eliminate early voting in Hasher for local and federal elections. The bill was heavily criticized by state and local politicians, mostly Democrats, after beliefs that Derulo is attempting to curb Democratic voters from casting a ballot ahead of the 2022 state elections. The state Assembly passed it in a vote of 23-22, with 21 Democrats and 1 Republican voting against it, and 23 Republicans voting for it on November 19, and the State Senate passed it in a vote of 16-14, with all Republicans voting in favor of it. Derulo is expected to sign it the same day. It will enter effect on December 1, meaning that the primaries will still give access to early voting, but not the general election.
=== False claims of election fraud and refusal to concede ===
After the results of the primary released on December 2, 2022, Derulo falsely claimed that his loss was fake and that he actually won the primary. Hasher is the only state in the country to have sore loser laws in place, meaning Derulo was unable to file for the general election.
On December 5, 2022, Derulo stated on RoTweeter that he will not concede, stating that he rightfully won the primary and that he "would've won the general election if the chance came by." On December 27, 2022, when Ella Cotton was declared the winner of Hasher's gubernatorial election, Derulo conceded, stating that "at least it's not O'Brien." Derulo was removed from office on December 31, 2022.
