Last-minute Predictions
Before the results are announced by the Department of State, there have been some predictions about the seats in House of Representatives and Senate. More specifically, for example, MSMBS published an article with its predictions for the 34th Congress.
Word has it that WPR and RBP will have the most seats out of the available 11, having 4 candidates from each party (4+4). TFC was expected to have won a seat in HoR, making them the 9th Representative. As for the last 2, they are predicted to be represented one candidate from NA, and one from TLO.
As for Senate, it seems to be divided across three parties, two of which seem to have tension against each other. TFC, WPR and RBP are expected to be in the Senate.
Updates & Statements
Update #1 – 9:31pm
- There have been many false rumors about the results. The elections officially ended a little over an hour ago, the votes are still being counted and will be released to the public within the next 2 hours. That’s what our exclusive information tells us.
Update #2 – 9:34pm
- This just in, though not really related: Accusations of rigging the elections by players. A few players are going around publicly accusing the Department of State for rigging the 34th Congress Elections. More information soon…
Update #3 – 9:49pm
- While waiting, we went ahead and asked a few candidates for their opinions, predictions, and general thoughts while waiting for the results. Current representative, Smami, said “I’m very hopeful for this upcoming congress, I think there’s a lot of potential in our candidates this time around. While I don’t have any major predictions, I think both Multiman155 and Girlfailcoded are probably the 2 seats I would bet on the most for victory. For Senate, 1950minecrafter I believe will get one of the spots. I would consider most other seats to be tossups“.
Update #4 – 9:58pm
- Scassany (New Alliance) was the next person to respond to our questions, saying “I’m super excited about the results coming in, I’ve put a lot of work into my campaign, and I’m really proud of what I’ve accomplished! I’m pretty confident that I can get a seat in this upcoming house, judging by public reactions. My predictions closely match the recent ones by MSMBS, though I think an IND candidate could sneak in instead of TLO or TFC. Either way, I’m excited to see what happens!“
- At the same time, Just_Jada (Redmont Beach Party) answered “I think people like Multiman, Imza, MrNeighbor, and Plura72 probably got a seat. But for myself, I am unsure. I was just happy to run and spread my cause out there!“
Update #5 – 10:03pm
- Anthony_org, from The Freedom Coalition, said “I believe discounting Multiman for a seat in the HoR is a big mistake considering he nearly beat Girlfailcoded in the special election. I don’t generally disagree with the predictions. In my opinion, either NovaKerbal or one of the RBP outsiders drops in favor of Multiman going in. I don’t disagree with the Senate predictions. I do think if there is to be an upset, it would be DocTheory losing his seat after the debate performance. I would not be shocked if he lost some independent voters, but I still see him winning a seat“.
Update #6 – 10:04pm
- Still waiting on information to be published by the Department of State. As of now and with the information we currently hold, the results should be expected by 11:30pm EST; meaning in just under an hour and a half from now.
Update #7 – 10:06pm
- GraprielJuice (WPR) said “At the moment, I’m honestly anxious. I feel I performed as well as I could’ve, but it’s still up to the voters who gets the seats at the end of the day, so I can only hope they’d entrust me with a seat. In regard to my predictions: I feel the WPR and RBP will get at least 3 seats each, with the rest being split between the independents and the newer parties“.
Update #8 – 10:26pm
- Girlfailcoded (WPR) has ‘little interest’ in predictions, adding, “I don’t see the point in it. As for statement, even if I don’t win, I’m extremely glad to have so many people support me. It’s lovely working with new and old players alike, and I hope whoever gets the seat can make the server more enjoyable for everyone“.
Update #9 – 10:43pm
- MrNeighbor (RBP) stated, “This is the first congressional election I’ve ever participated in, but I hope people think my policies are good enough ideas to warrant voting me. I am also hoping for the success of other candidates, as especially this election I have seen most candidates with in my opinion good policies. As for predications, I personally think it’s going to be a blender of a House, probably with the RBP and WPR losing some seats having the other parties and independents taking those seats, but I have no clue“.
Update #10 – 10:49pm
- Next, pricelessAgrari (independent), said “I feel that there is a good line-up this election. We have Multiman, who is a very knowledgeable lawyer and person in general, NovaKerbal, who has talked to me about some ideas, and Talion, who had reached out to me and started a law firm, so I know he is a great person for the job. As for predictions, I think we will see 4 RBP (Omega, Plura, Jada, and Imza), 3 WPR (selendot, Girlfailcoded, and GraprielJuice), 1 tLO (NovaKerbal), 1 NA (Scassany), 1 TP (Talion), and at least 2 IND (Multiman is one, I’m uncertain for the other one). I’m also running for Senate, though my predictions for the two of the three spots are Matthew100x and Jesseya“.
Update #11 – 10:52pm
- This just in, the results will delay even more to be announced. We previously mentioned that we should expect the results by
11:30pm EST. Turns out, complications in the process will delay the results’ announcement even more. At this time, there is no estimated time of arrival.
