The Azrothean primary elections are coming to close. Unsurprisingly, Thrall is a runaway candidate for leader of the Horde. The Warchief is carrying 70% of the vote, the closest competitor Lady Sylvanas Windrunner has only 14.8%. Thrall is currently preparing his campaign team for the general election. Windrunner is rumored to be preparing her forces for non-political endeavors.
The Alliance race is neck and neck and neck between Highlord Bolvar Fordragon, King Magni Bronzebeard(24.1%), and High Priestess Tyrande Whisperwind. The latest polls show the King with a slight advantage (24.4%) over the High Priesstess (24.1%) and the Highlord (21.3%). Both High Tinker Gelbin Mekkatorque and Prophet Velen are reportedly stepping up their campaigns in hopes of come-behind victory. At this point it's anyone's race.
Due to overwhelming support from write-in voters, Lady Jaina Proudmoore has decided to enter the election contest as an independent candidate. She would like to thank everyone for their support and promises an excellent running in the general election.
Remember to vote for your candidate by March 20, 2008. Rock (paper, scissors) the vote!

So Jaina's in the race... great!
Now, how do we VOTE for her? She's not an option in any of the polls, and she was only added AFTER most folks had already voted in the Alliance poll.

Well, my theory is that when there's a big, over-reaching Leader of All Azeroth OMG election, she'll be the Independant. And then we vote for her!
Maybe. :D

Over on the deathwing server "King Magni Bronzebeard" so shouldn't that drop his vote rate down some?

Sure, throw away your vote... his healthcare plan's horrible, and don't even get me started on how he treats foreign diplomats.

Another pointless election. Whoever wins I still have to pay $15 a month.

Hear, hear! I recommend annual fiscal or tax credits for obsessive players.

I'm tired of this senseless war in Outland, we have no real support and are only there for other intrests (can anyone say Khorium?). Plus, they send us out there while the mobs you run into have better greens than our epics! I for one say we pull out immeadiately!

For Alliance:
Vote Cthulhu
-vote for the lesser evil
Humans are to stupid, gnomes are to eccentric, elves are to stuck-up and dwarves are to dirty to be allowed to lead.

I want a Proudmoore/Thrall tie in the election.
They have to "battle" it out in the Arena.
;)
I think she'd teleport him to Onyxia's lair where he'll get bored to death by her ramblings....
"I used to be advisor to those damn humans. They used to be so mad they'd come to try and kill me. NOOOOO now I'm just some stupid dragon they laugh at and tell me the one's in Ogri'la are harder to beat.... I slapped that little hussy around when she was a whelp!! Why don't they ever come to visit? You guys never do either? Don't bitch about how long and annoying that quest chain is. Not my fault. I'd let you in if I could. Vashj did. I'd love the company. Does this make me look fat? Why are you hitting yourself with that hammer?"

I just hope Sylvannas will distance herself from the remark made by Varimathras that "the only reason Thrall is where he is at is because he's an Orc".

You should really hold a runoff with the top two or three. A candidate shouldn't be selected with a quarter or less of the vote.
