I believe that the Post of Head of Intelligence ought to be eliminated for lack of Slovak candidates. It's not like Slovakia has made much use of intelligence so far anyway.
Voter Colonel's Intermission
Gen. Marshall - I've struggled with this one, I know Slovakia has lax standards, but I'm unsure how on earth Tanks could be Head of Slovak Intelligence. Ignoring the many much more obvious other problems, Slovakia has no oil or fuel reserves so the poor thing would be unable to move. However never let it be said I don't respect democracy, that is the job of the Voter Colonel, so I'll add the category and hope tanks doesn't win.
Surt - He can hardly make things much worse.
Athalcor - I can understand wanting to vote with a fellow Czech, but a poet....
TheButterflyComposer - You are treating this decision with the correct level of respect and mental engagement.
Andre Massena - He does have more of a personality than his rivals.
markkur - There is a limit to the mayhem one can carry out in Slovakia, but I'm sure he'll give it his best.
Anuerin - He's a popular candidate.
Bullfilter - Ha_ns has much to bring to Slovakia, alas you are thus far one of the few to back him.
Done.
nuclearslurpee - I am delighted you chose this election to delurk in.
Galbatorix994 - They have to have someone as Head of Intelligence, it's probably a requirement of the Slovak Constitution. But I agree it is not a post likely to make much difference. To anything. Ever. Even in the Slovak Cabinet.

I also vote for Manfred: Nobility to the front! Knights and lords shall always be preferred in countries with ancient technologies.
I vote for Hans "Not a German" Bernard. He must not lose to that wimp crying about losing a letter in his name!

Any man who earns the epithath 'the Butcher' and (possibly) goes mad, or is at least considered so by Nazi standards, sounds like a perfect candidate. I vote tanks.
If tanks win then just edit a name file... Han_s and tanks have most of their letters in common (assuming that _ is not a letter).

Mid-week Voting update
Gen. Marshall - I will not talk about Fight Club?
racebear75 - That is a good point, as Slovakia falls ever faster into medieval technology perhaps feudalism is due a comeback?
Nathan Madien - You have saved Bernard from the shame of no votes. And for that he is eternally grateful.
Davout - If even the Tank Caucus is starting to split, this could be a walk over.
Henry IX - I admire your logic.
Current Tally
As it may influence the voting, the current plan is that should tanks win the legendary General Jurech will get the job. For those who have forgotten; Jurech is currently leading the 2nd (This Space Deliberately Left Blank) Division, was last seen losing the Battle of Rouen and is the only Panzer leader general in the whole of Slovakia. Probably get the Dismal Enigma tag as that would give him some personality. The army focused trait of "Research Specialist" sounds a bit dull.

Well if General Jurech is a crummy Tank-leader that has no tanks?
I switch my vote from the Killer.

I still (and again) vote Han_s. Someone so temperamentally unsuited to the job deserves it. Killinger sounds like he might be too well versed in the skills required of a murderous security chief. Can't have that - it would be un-Slovakian. Are you sure he doesn't have Czech <spit> ancestry?

Oh no! For a German member of the nobility - VON Killinger - it is UNTHINKABLE to have traitorous Czech ancestors. Perhaps Bohemians but no Czech!
To be honest, I would love to vote armoured, but tanks and Slovakia just seem too antithetical even for me.
ii - Give me Jaternicky or give me death!

Another vote for Han_s under the 'early and often' principle. No hanging chads here!
Can I register 'Panzers for Han_s' Superpac under Florida-Slovak election rules? I have heard Han_s is dedicated to creating tank manufacturing jobs for all Slovaks over the age of 6, so really a vote for Han_s is a vote for tanks and typically Slovak over-ambition and inefficiency plus the exploitation of minors for the defence of the Fatherland.
Han_s is your man to keep Slovakian security on track - along the highway to hell

And with that, voting is now closed. Feedback on the vote and the announcement of the final results later today.
Voting Interlude III - Voting Interlude with a Vengeance
Gen. Marshall - With Davout gone a bit heretical, you may yet become head of the armoured caucus.
Andre Massena - He has much to recommend him.
markkur - This is Florida Rules, no vote changing allowed. But as it is vote early, vote often, and there is nothing in Florida Rules about having to be consistent, this vote will still count.
Henry IX - He's set the bar high with his name, it's a cunning marketing move if nothing else.
Bullfilter - Such loyalty to a lost cause deserves respect. And a fine bit of campaign slurring, nothing more likely to sway a Slovak electorate than accusations a candidate is *spit* Czech *spit*.
racebear75 - Internet says the von Killingers were from Baden-Württemberg, so not even close.
nuclearslurpee - An innovative voting style, I approve.
Davout - Not voting the tank option.... People have been kicked out of the armoured caucus for less. But as you say Slovakian tanks is arguably crossing a line, so you may get away with it.
Bullfilter - A man who has read the rule book. No Superpacs here sir, we have standards to maintain. Not many of them, and those we have are often low, but they are our standards and they shall be kept.
