What's the normal term for the president? I.e. when will there be re-elections anyhow? |

Hm. Not quite my area here, so speaking mostly as an outsider:
Roden pulled 58.7% of the votes, with the closest runner-up hitting 31.2%. I seriously doubt that the inclusion of the war zone worlds - 47 low-sec systems of 388 systems in the Federation - would have out-weighted such a difference, even if all of them had voted for Aguard. And indeed, the main effect the relevant Scope article seems to indicate is that Roden wouldn't have had an "outright majority". ( http://www.eveonline.com/news.asp?a=single&nid=3608&tid=4 )
Now I'm rather uninformed about the Federal law system, but I don't think this would have changed Roden's precidency. Could one of the Federate pilots give a short explanation on what exactly this "outright majority" or the lack thereof means?
As for the current situation, I think it's rather unfortunate that these people did not get a vote in this election. On the other hand, it seems it wouldn't have had a major effect, and going for a re-vote now would cause a lot of expenses and work that's likely better used elsewhere (you do have this war thing going on), and a change in government always delays and hampers ongoing governmental work. As it's just a bit over 3 years until the next election, I understand the desire to not put in these expenses and just wait until it's officially happening anyhow. |

So, to sum it up, no one knows what the people of Intaki actually want, but everyone does their best to help them with what they think the people should want?
Very Amarrian of you. |

Without force, a Government has no authority. The Gallenteans have no authority in Intaki. Despite people's assertions otherwise. You just said that Ishukone has no authority in Intaki.
I'm not sure you really want to argue that. |
