Secretary General Elections

With nominations having closed for Secretary-General nominations the moment has come for you to vote for your preferred candidate. As is to be expected only members of the Commonwealth Treaty Organisation may vote in this election. There are two candidates seeking the position:

Candidate One
 
Individual's name: Serenity Azurewind
Nominating country: Achkaerin
Other nationalities (if any):
Relevant prior experience (if any):

Crown Princess of Achkaerin, active negotiator at several major treaty events including for the CIS as a proxy. She tends to handle more active foreign policy matters than her father.

Serenity has more experience in the diplomatic field than most in fact the only people with more experience tend to be Heads of State. She's been a major participant in treaty negotiations including the CETO, MCUR and Commonwealth (the only major treaty she hasn't been involved in the discussions of is the Uppsala Convention which was attended by her father). She's also attempted initiatives such as the Mundus Youth Assembly and the Cotf Aranye Partnership. She achieved success in mediating the Ardian Diplomatic Convention by going in without an agenda. She's also conducted interviews for the CIS as part of the membership application process. Her most recent success diplomatically is seen in the Edelweiss Concordat that effectively achieves stability in Toshindai

She also holds the rank of Commander within the Achkaerin Imperial Navy and has seen combat in the War of the Enlightenment.

A short description (<100 words) of why they should be elected:

Serenity's highly intelligent, perceptive and not afraid to call it how she sees it. She knows most of the major players internationally and works well with them as her record shows. She's been vocal of the faults within the CTO and if elected would seek to correct those faults. She was the first to publicly acknowledge and apologize for the CTO's failings in respect of the Andean Genocide. In general she is a proven diplomat and leader who understands the challenges facing the CTO and is more than capable of meeting that challenge.


Candidate Two
 
Individual's name: Amadeus O'Donnell
Nominating country: South Hills
Other nationalities (if any):n/a
Relevant prior experience (if any): Promiment International Businessman
A short description (<100 words) of why they should be elected: O'Donnell represents much of the world population - upset with the status quo of international politics and upset with establishment politics. No political corectness can be found, nor can inside ballpark politics or friendzone politics - unlike some other candidates. O'Donnell would be the best selection for the Commonwealth for a true peoples candidate and one who wouldn't put up with anything stupid.


Whoever gets the most votes wins and, in the event of a tie, I'll defer to CGJ's trusty coin flip to determine the winner. Voting will be open for 48 hours.

East Moreland abstains, we feel Mr.O'Donnell lacks any diplomatic experience and Princess Serenity as someone holding commission within a military is not something we believe should be running an international organisation of this nature.

OOC- In terms of why the reality is O'Donnell as stated, meanwhile Serenity isn't exactly on the EM Christmas Card list.

OCC- I'll point out for clarity, that as per last time Serenity's commission would be suspended for the term if elected.

OOC- That wasn't made public knowledge and in EM's view suspension of a commission means she still holds it.

The Dartfordian delegate stood. "With assurances from the Achkaerinese government that Ms Azurewind will not act in any formal capacity for the Achkaerinese government, and shall be suspending her Commission, Dartfordia votes for Serenity Azurewind. However, we do note our displeasure at the range of candidates."

The Federation of the Dijel votes for Serenity Azurewind, though privately considers that, given the choice between a deserter and a fruitcake, custard may be in order. Boy, does my CTO rep need a personality.

The delegate of Shenken wasn't really impressed by both candidates. After a lot of deliberation she raised her voice: "the Most Serene Republic of Shenken votes for Serenity Azurewind".

I believe now that the voting period of 48 hours as declared has passed that the final result is:

Serenity Azurewind - 7
Amadeus O'Donnell - 3

Abstentions - 2

I'm just looking for B or C to confirm that.

I'm kind of surprised there's not a minimum age written into the treaty for SecGen, but I digress.
