Aye to Texas statehood vote passes to @ConservativeElector2 next

@Pringles Secretary of State Dallas, you will need 3 IP to deliver the petition for Texas statehood to Congress per the President's wishes. You can spend your own faction IP, the President can donate @Hestia and/or you can turn to other factions to see who might donate to the cause.

Aye

While we wait for Crawford and Dallas to accept or decline their job offers, do you want Treasury Secretary Polk to put forward a Tax or a Level 3 Tariff, or repeal of Level 2 Tariff? Or you can call for Issue #1 @Hestia

No actions for my faction this turn @MrPotatoTed

Buchanan will leave the liberal paper in place @MrPotatoTed

Webster 187 Polk 88 Buchanan 180 Scott 75 1836 Election Final tally to be confirmed by @MrPotatoTed but it's looking like Daniel Webster is our new President-Elect with opponent James Buchanan as Vice President-Elect. @Hestia

And Buchanan goes to Delaware, as we tally up the endgame of the election. The two running mates split the Southern states, while the frontrunners split the North and western frontier states. The Whig ticket sweeps Maryland and Delaware goes for a Buchanan/Polk split ticket.

Buchanan goes to Illinois @Hestia

Buchanan goes to New Jersey @Hestia

Buchanan goes to Indiana @Hestia

Buchanan goes to Kentucky @Hestia

Buchanan goes to Ohio @Hestia

Buchanan will ask Winfield Scott to join the liberal party ticket @Hestia

I will activate Alabama native William Rufus King, who is eager to see General Johnson win this war for `MURCA!

My faction votes Aye on compromise, vote passes to @ConservativeElector2

Vote to @Timur on Option A: Compromise

If the President were to delegate this issue to Vice President Buchanan, the Veep's faction would put 3 IP forward to help mitigate the cost... @Pringles

The issue difficulty is 6 against the President's ability of 2, requiring 4 IP. I take it the President is spending all 4 of his own personal IP? Or @Pringles did you want to try to wrangle up some donations first?

With 33 in favor and 11 opposed, Alabama statehood passes. +1 popularity each to President Calhoun and Secretary of State Polk. Electoral map updated @MrPotatoTed Mr. President, you can call for Issue #2 or ask your Treasury Secretary to propose enacting a Tax, enacting a Level 3 tariff, or repealing a Level 2 tariff @Pringles

Aye to Alabama statehood, vote next to @ConservativeElector2

In addition to @WVProgressive vote on Alabama statehood there is a job offer on the table for your statesman John Bell to serve as Special Envoy a second time to Calhoun's administration

That's all for me thanks

Andrew Jackson will spend 1 IP to build Liberal public support, and will spend 1 IP to start a Liberal newspaper
