The Ramsett Election

Known as one of the most memorable and historically significant events to take place in Breeze History.

**Took place during the Cricket Period.**

## The Candidates

The thriving nation of Rushmore II was in need of a leader, who the people decided would be chosen by election. Three members of the nation stepped forward to run.

* PartyShark
* Karl
* ZewyPooey

## Campaigns & Bribery

The candidates wasted no time spreading their messages, and also bribing citizens.

Karl began his campaign by offering diamonds and other valuables to citizens of Rushmore II. He also offered to help citizens out with any other projects they may have been working on. Although this strategy did gain Karl a few votes, it mostly pushed people away to Party or Zewy.

## Election Results

Each candidate took a turn giving speeches which described their goals for the nation and their plans for its future. Each candidate was also asked three questions, and also any other questions the citizens had.

After the speeches and questions the citizens of Rushmore II were sent a form to cast their vote.

**PartyShark - 4 votes**

**Karl - 3 votes**

**ZewyPooey - 2 votes**

## Post-Election Terrorism

Despite his contributions and work to the nation, Karl lost the election and was devastated. Fueled by his emotions of grief, Karl took his anger out on the people of Ramsett. Karl unexpectedly killed Ramsett citizen Rolooden twice, and took shots at other citizens. His rampage lasted several minutes in the center of Mainstreet.

After the rampage Karl was brought to court to stand trial for the two murders and further damages. Karl defended himself by claiming that he was just grieving the loss of the election. The Jury of Ramsett requested that he pay a fine to the bereaved and be stripped of the right to own weapons. He was also requested by the judge to pay a fine of eight diamonds, be stripped of all weapons during election week, and be barred from running in the election cycle.

**"I do believe my sentencing was a bit unfair. I did kill someone but I got carried away and I didn't mean to get carried away." - Karl**

Instead of paying his fines Karl decided to run. After the sentencing he ran to the nearby birch forest while being chased by several Ramsett citizens. He was able to kill some of them but was taken down by Ramsett's deputy mayor. Karl respawned, killed more citizens with an iron axe, and eventually his respawn point was destroyed.

PartyShark declared that Karl was to be banished entirely from Rushmore II. This is the first official banishment in history.

## The Bombing of the Mayor's Office

Karl took refuge in the jungle of the Socialist Republic of Waterland after his banishment was announced. The leader of the SRW, 0du, personally offered Karl refuge and said, "I find that his proven strength and banishment is going to benefit him. The nation grows with him, long live the SRW."

A few days passed after the banishment before tragedy struck Ramsett once again. Citizens were woken in their sleep to the sounds of explosions coming from the mayor's office. After the smoke cleared the origin of the noise became clear. The Ramsett Mayor's Office had been blown up. Although the damages directly from the bombing were minimal, the political effect it had on the nations was significant. Tensions rose between Rushmore II and the Socialist Republic of Waterland.

The newly elected mayor of Ramsett, PartyShark, declared that Karl was to be killed on sight.

Karl was never seen again after the bombing.
