@TheAllMemeingEye Second round vote count:

• Putin: 1

• Zelenskyy: 1

• Tómasdóttir: 1

• Arce: 1

• Kallas: 1

All have equal votes, so they all jointly win in a power-sharing system, and we end up with the most cursed chaotic administration in history, due largely to the exceptionally low voter turnout.

@traders last chance to get your votes in, currently 4 ballots cast

@BrunoParga Feel like applying your master plan here too haha?

@TheAllMemeingEye nah, this is even more plagued by ties :p

However... can I vote for Kaja Kallas? She's no longer Head of Government, but she has an EU-wide office...

@BrunoParga hmm, it's definitely an edge case, but since she was still head of government within this year, and she hasn't started her new position yet, and you've engaged really well with my markets, and you asked nicely, I'll make an exception haha

Do you have any preference among the other candidates?
