#### Orilla

candidate Maex presented himself as a transformative leader with a focus on real responsibility for the province. Although his answers were consistent, they left much to be desired in terms of substance. Maex started by announcing his departure from the satirical party Forward! and expressed his intention to run as an independent, promising a new direction for Orilla.

With Orilla facing crucial challenges, voters may question whether Maex's vision can bring the transformative change the province needs.

As the election approaches, voters may seek further clarification from Eurelio to gain a clearer understanding of his plans for the province.

#### Petani

candidate Anaya Gecceson presented her vision for the province's future. However, the event was not without controversy as technical difficulties with the timer gave Gecceson an unfair advantage over other candidates when answering questions.

As the Petani local election approaches, voters will likely take this into consideration when evaluating the candidates and their respective visions for the province's future.
