A Split Ticket

The City of Cyrilsburg is the center of the Principality of Curon, as its capital and the seat of the Prince. As the August Administration's leadership is tasked with national policy, international diplomacy, and more, the Cyrilsburg Municipal Government administrates the capital. This government is headed by a Mayor, and the Mayor is elected by the Curonian populace. He oversees the stewardry and other municipal officials. As our first Mayor's term comes to a close, we once more seek good candidates.

 

We do thus reach out to those esteemed citizens of Curon that would seek out this office, and enter a life of public service. The Administration doth require that each candidate prepare a speech, printing it upon posters, and distributing it across the nation. After a few Saint's Days, all candidates shall be allowed to hold a public debate. We encourage like minded individuals to approach the Administration if they intend on forming internal polities of any variety - political groupings, parties, or what have you. 
 

–––––– Serve your nation. Run for office today. ––––––

 

One may at first declare their candidacy alone, but it mustn't stay that way for long. By the time of the election, we expect a split ticket. This means that both a Mayor and Deputy Mayor are joined together, and hold one place on the ballot. For example, mayoral candidate Jerry and his deputy mayoral candidate Jim would run together, and if one wanted to vote for them, they would vote for both of them. Partners may declare their candidacy together, but if a candidate cannot find a partner, they may declare an open candidacy now, and seek to make a political alliance with another lonesome candidate, merging their campaigns before the election takes place.

 

After the Mayoral Debate, the public vote will be tallied. Thenceforth, we shall hold a ceremony of commission for the newly elected Mayor and his Deputy Mayor, and welcome them to their new office. They will answer to the Chancellor, and will largely be in charge of helping lead the new administrative and municipal reforms, promoting a safer, more prosperous Cyrilsburg. After such leaders are selected, we shall also be seeking out a number of new stewards, and others, to be welcomed into the employ of the Cyrilsburg Municipal Government, as it is an ever growing organization.

[Post your candidate declarations in the Curon forum by the 31st of March. Both deputy mayor and mayor candidates must post their own declaration. Not sure which you want to run for? No need to specify. Just decide by the 31st. Be sure to get a partner, or find one after you declare. As candidates declare, debates will be scheduled between them. Stay tuned.]

Ser Sylvester III would smile. "It was a good run with many accomplishments, and hopefully the new Mayor can do the same." he'd state

Magnus Rises, reading his father's old papers "I intend to run, for Curon needs to remain Great!"

Véres states, "I suppose I'll give it another shot."

[Arhbi 181]

“I William Rubens intend to run as deputy mayor of Cyrilsburg!”

Leila pouts as she stands up, carrying her papers forward in order to hand them in. "He oversees the stewards? More like she." The woman simply states, before a smile soon returns to her lips. "I, Leila Rubens, will be running for Mayor of Cyrilsburg."
