Hoover will attempt to convert Kingsley Taft to his faction. (Conservative, Pliable) In the future, you may want to wait until after Ideology Shifts to ask for conversions since a few people will likely pick up the Pliable trait during shifts. Not really an issue this time since Hoover is the only one that can do it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ha I actually kind of enjoy doing this section. More then some other areas. Although yes it can be tricky. @10centjimmy just one thing and I didn't check them all so you could be right but each faction should be awarded an interest as long as they have an eligible one with 5 pols. All factions get at least one interest – if after following the instructions above a faction is left without an interest, they will receive the eligible interest that matches the largest number of their politicians, provided that they have at least five politicians with that interest.

10centjimmy Posted February 16, 2023 Author Share Posted February 16, 2023 (edited) 2.2 Leaders Emerge Congressional Leadership Red Team - @matthewyoung123 @ebrk85 @ShortKing @lm1145 Each Faction may submit a nominee for Speaker (current Speaker is RedRW Nicholas Longworth, who does not meet all necessary requirements and from my review, no one does so anyone is eligible) Each Faction may submit a nominee for House Majority Leader and Majority Whip (Currently @matthewyoung123 John Q Tilson and Albert Vestal, anyone may run) Each Faction may submit a nominee for Senate Majority Leader and Majority Whip (currently @lm1145 James Eli Watson and @ebrk85 Simeon Fess, but they do not fully qualify according to the rules, in fact only @ShortKing Robert La Follette jr and William Borah, and RedRW Vandenberg have the Leadership trait, but neither have been committee chair so all Red Senators are eligible for this election) @lm1145 George H Moses is Sen Pres Pro Temp as "longest serving Senator" (and he was the one set for the Era) so @lm1145 gets things started with 100 points! RedRW Nominates Senator Arthur Vandenberg for Senate Majority Leader and Senate Majority Whip RedRW nominates "Speaker" Nicholas Longworth for Speaker, House Majority Leader, and House Majority Whip Blue Team - @jnewt @Largo833 @Umbrella @MrPotatoTed Each Faction may submit a nominee for House Minority Leader and Minority Whip (currently BlueRight John Nance Garner and John McDuffie, but anyone may run as they do not fully qualify) Each Faction may submit a nominee for Senate Minority Leader and Minority Whip (currently @MrPotatoTed Joseph T Robinson and @Largo833 Morris Sheppard, but they do not fully qualify so all Senators are eligible) BlueRight nominates Walter F George for Senate Minority Leader and Whip BlueRight nominates John Nance Garner for House Minority Leader and Whip Please have your nominees/endorsements ready by 9:30p Eastern, tomorrow! Once I see all members of a party have shared, I will process their votes first. Flagging that you can nominate the same person for each office, but obviously, they will only be able to hold a single office following a vote.
