Congress Meeting, February 1936
Fellow representers of the political parties, welcome to the second meeting.
Today's meeting starts with a correction on last meeting's discussion. The PPU had earlier clearly stated that they will take away the women's right to vote in elections, unlike told in the previous meeting. We apologize for the inconvenience.
Paraguay had a revolution not a long time ago, with a Social Liberal government coming into power. The neighboring countries, such as Brazil, have increased the amount of divisions in the borders. Also our government's members think that we must observe and if Paraguay's government starts alignments towards the wrong ideologies, we must find a solution.
Now, let's move over to the Panama Question again. The parties have discussed whether or not is it a good idea to intervene in Central America. Some say that it will just worsen the already tensioned relations between the U.S and our neighbors, but some say that it has to be done for global security. One of the interesting suggestions is a union. The DLP (Democratic Labour Party) has announced to support the idea of CAERT, the Central American Economic Reunification Treaty, creating a loyal US-administrated area in Central America. We all can agree on the fact that securing the Panama Canal is vital for trade and military.
Then to the last thing in this meeting. Since there is only one month to the elections in our country (OOC: Three days), the first political campaigns are allowed. This serves as a pre-voting stage, to raise the interest of the voters.
So, the political parties of 1936, start preparing a propa... political campaign to get the people to vote YOUR party in the elections, which are held on Thursday.
I call this meeting adjourned.
OOC: So, now is the time you can prepare the graphical or text-based campaign to raise the interest and get the Paradoxians to vote a specific party when the elections are held. If you would like to have a cool graphic campaign poster, but you don't consider yourself that good with image manipulation, feel free to ask me by PM. I have nothing to do, so I can make posters for you guys.
The rules are revised: You are allowed to make a
small notification in other threads, but to prevent spam, keep the posters and such in this thread.
Understood? Good. Three days before the elections start, then there's 5 days time to vote. After the elections, the newly elected party will take the cabinet on the next day. So this means it will still take 9 days before a new government takes the cabinet.
