THE eAUSTRALIAN SENATE ELECTIONS COMMISSIONER - ANTI-TAKE OVER EFFORT
OFFICE OF THE PRIME MINISTER OF eAUSTRALIA
See: http://www.erepublik.com/en/article/-cp-please-read-what-the-hell-is-a-pto-and-what-to-do--2162243/1/20
APPOINTMENT AND AUTHORITY
By the authority vested in me by the Prime Minister of eAustralia, I have accepted the appointment to head the anti-take over elections process. My position will be strictly apolitical and report directly to the Prime Minister, holding the authority of Art. II (i) of the Constitution of eAustralia (4/11) in a time of war.
EXPERIENCE FOR THE ROLE
I have been a 3x Party President of major parties, 2x Campaign Director of major party Senate elections, a 10x Senator and 3x Speaker of the Senate, the latter providing a good education in the rules and functions of wartime and internal community security efforts.
EXPLAINING THE ROLE
In a nutshell, the role created by the Prime Minister is central to the Anti-Take Over (ATO) provisions long-set in our country. Previously, some aspects of this role were delegated to the Minister of Citizenship (or portfolio equivalent), the eNational Security Agency (NSA) and legislative provision of the constituted Senate of eAustralia. In the event of no Senate at the time a threat is realised, this power reverts to the Executive.
In the Ranger administration, during this time of electoral threat by declaration of the Prime Minister, eAustralia's ATO status has been activated once more.
Working in with game-mechanics, my role doesn't have the access to arbitrarily 'ban' or 'remove' a Political Take-Over (PTO) candidate. However, in line with the confidence granted me by the Prime Minister, I will work with political party leaders and hear their cases why ATO efforts should be directed against candidates who are not authorised by legitimate eAustralian parties. Again - such designations have been made by the Prime Minister.
I shall be co-ordinating and reporting to all stakeholders on the process throughout in an open and transparent manner.
The only office of appeal above me is my direct superior, the Prime Minister.
AIMS AND OBJECTIVES
To monitor and encourage a free and democratic election of legitimate citizens from authorised parties. To look forward to the day where all players participate in the game fairly and such actions are unnecessary.
In the finite instance - to have an elected Senate of legitimate citizens by the close of Committee Phase on the 26th of November 2012.

Ah huh Wingfield. Two parties out of 5 are PTO'd. They probably have more sleepers. Unless we even remove one party we have already lost.
So what you are saying is ridiculous.
THIS IS eAUSTRALIA. AND IT IS NEITHER.
FOLLOWING SUNDAY PEOPLE CAN GO BACK WHEREVER THE HELL THEY LIKE.
IF YOU ARE eAUSTRALIAN YOU WILL FIGHT AGAINST THE RAPE OF OVER 1,000 GOLD FROM OUR COUNTRY.
THAT IS ALL.

eAustralian CP.
Wingfield is only in it for himself he has made that much obvious and his tactics today will be addressed in articles to follow.
Complete slime.
Good luck TJ

Can I have some of that gold please?
TJ is an official appointment to the Executive as is my right as CP.
People, please vote and sub.

DICTATORS
i don't really care if we are overrun by PTOs because the current government has done shit all for the general public. IF they start helping their citizens, then OK, i will appreciate them. until then, we probably should just let this happen
yoshi878: You know it doesn't work saying 'i don't really care if we are overrun by PTOs' when you, yourself, are a PTO right? Kind of like saying 'I like money that's why it's ok to steal'.
Erm, if anything, this government has done more for community than any in a long time. The sheer levels of cooperative activity we've seen aught prove this.
Besides, Dictatorships are more effective. Ranger4CP4Lyf
Yoshi was Splinter's Master in the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. That's all I know of him.
v+s good luck guys
good intentions, but will evolve into elitism & promote clique protection
I think you might have botched this ATO guys... I'll explain later.
no it wont Rexdeus, we had this type of organisation when the Indos PTOd us, after they left we simply disbanded, people dislike each other too much to work together when there is no PTO.
why would you explain later Mr Crumpets, are you purposely trying to prevent us from "fixing it" if you think its broken?
The ATO is always a fresh group.... this time around they are comprised of I guess you could say the "Gov Opposition"
When in trouble we fight for a common cause, once the PTO is averted we'll be back to tearing each others eyes out.
A PTO is declared by one group against another. So which one is right?
whichever represents the people, domestic PTOs are not the issue here infin, international multi PTOs are.
domestic PTOs are legal and will not be touched by the election commission
infin I love your work but now is not the time for lulz mate.
tj norton, i am not a pto. i am simply standing up for wingfield(and in his party), who you have decided to discriminate against because he likes free will.
I AM 100% AUSSIE AND ALWAYS WILL BE DON'T TRY TO CALL ME PTO JUST BECAUSE FREEDOM IS GOOD!
yoshi878 do you also agree with RL hatred? that is exactly what wingfield does
Yoshi, you are not a PTO because I say so. You are PTO because you support PTO activities. Taking the lipstick off a pig still makes it a pig.
I think that should be putting lipstick on a pig still makes it a pig
(though probably would make it more desirable to Mr Crumpets)
Thanks Louise. A random chatter brought up Sarah Palin out of left field which made me think of it at the time.
