63rd Adorian Election

←62nd - 13th of November 2021 - 64th→

## Electoral System

The National Assembly elects all of her 85 seats in a Simulated/Popular Vote Lottery in which the election system for the term is decided via dice roll. As a Simulated Vote was rolled in the previous election in which the odds were 50% AES - 50% Popular, the odds of this election were an additional +25% to the losing choice for odds of **25% AES to 75% Popular**.

If AES is rolled the Adorian Election System is used to determine the election results. The main component of the AES is the popular vote which comprises 40% of the AES with other factors such as propaganda, party activity, Party member notability, bills proposed, etc composing the rest of the electorate. The AES is overseen by Matthew V. Independent Candidates function outside of the AES and only require 1/85th (1.18%) of the Popular Vote.

### Death of Jose Montiel

>
> And she was completely manipulating him! She convinced him they should live separately because it's modern nowadays and Jose, as good as he was, fell for her trick! She sucked his money like a black hole! I heard one day that she was convincing him to donate money to some printing office to raise awareness about a lack of Bibles on this planet. And let me tell you one thing - day by day, I'm more and more convinced she did it! Those heels... those heels you found... I said I don't know whose heels those were! But... I didn't want to accuse anyone. But now...
