[ The feed clicks onto Erik, sitting in an office. ]

Good afternoon and Happy New Year, imPorts. I'd like to take the opportunity to remind you all that voting for the Maurtia Falls election is today. Personally, I’ll be returning to the polls after this to hand these out.

[ He pulls briefly at the “I Voted” sticker on his chest. ]

Many things have happened in the last few months - not all of them good. Although I think we've reached a unanimous agreement that extreme caution should be taken in contacting the porter, I believe now more than ever we must find alternative manners to research its history and mechanics. As of now, there are more than a few ideas of paths forward, and I want to create a more open forum for its discussion in order to ensure-- and reassure-- the safest possible outcome.

[ But enough about current news, let’s segue into some programs: ]

During the De Chima election, The Foundation and I were in the final stages of creating a facility with which to train individuals on honing their powers. The Danger Room is now open to the public, and I highly encourage you all to visit, utilize the facility, and leave suggestions for improvement.

I have always been a proponent for the betterment of our quality of life, and following the success of the Danger Room, I have several project proposals of interest. The first is a volunteer network to pair settled imPorts with new arrivals in order to help them adjust to the new environment. The second is a career placement board, where imPorts can be matched to positions that highlight their skills and own personal interests. Lastly, I'd like to propose funding for an insurance program for unregistered minors, many of whom come from extreme circumstances and should not be denied healthcare, housing, or education.

Whether or not you agree with my politics or my ideas, I hope that all of you have been inspired by at least one of the candidates. Regardless of your choice, the De Chima election brought out record numbers of voters, and I hope for the same kind of turnout and fervent interest in choosing your representatives today.

You know how some people collect the buttons or signs from campaigns or elections? I used to have a whole lot of stickers from them.

Wow, don't wanna pay for my insurance anymore?

[ a dry drawl, but yes, he voted (sticker hanging out on his cheek currently), and it was for erik, because he's about the only person on that candidate list he trusts to have half a brain. ]

I should probably do that, shouldn't I. [The voting thing. Fuck.]

If Wanda gets extra stickers though, I want extra stickers too.

[This is the first time Ezequiel's spoken to Erik outside of a text, and the strong tint of a Portuguese accent to his voice comes through as he mulls over the finer points of his newly found part in this alleged democracy.] What's the voting age for imPorts? I mean, I know what it is in the United States in general - I took Political Science back home - but can imPorts under the age of eighteen vote, or is it eighteen across the board, no exceptions?

[There's a pause before he clarifies,] I'm new so I don't know if I know enough about any candidate to vote. I just want to know for reference, if that makes sense.

[personal profile] divaricate 2018-01-08 11:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Most definitely.
quickfingers: (☈ still a loser)

[personal profile] quickfingers 2018-01-08 11:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Who says I was gonna vote for you? [Joking. Mostly.]

Though I will say I can and will be swayed by the allure of sweet, sweet stickers.

If the American rules apply, then since I'm fourteen I wouldn't be able to. Besides, I don't think I could learn everything I need to know to make a smart voting choice in eleven months. I can't even remember what the major American political parties are. We never went over it in-depth, back home. But thanks for the offer.

Are you trying to steal my stickers? [teasing. mostly. sorta. maybe. with a small smile.] I called dibs first.
quickfingers: (☈ oops)

[personal profile] quickfingers 2018-01-08 11:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, well. You don't get to have all of them - sharing is caring?
