2/13 Election

The 2/13 Election was Coolsville's second election. Unlike its predecessor, this election featured three parties. The Growth Party could not be represented by sitting mayor Santos Zatenberg, so former council member and newest member of the Growth Party, Erica Kartwright, represented the party. The only returning politician was Nolan Arlington, who represented the Stable Wealth Party. The new and recently formed Active City Party was represented by Tobias Nelson. On 2/14, Nelson won and took office on 2/15.

Votes
Like in the previous election, each statement had a word limit of 500. The statements were written on 2/12, but were not completed until 2/13. 25 points were distributed by the same non-partisan viewer from the 1/30 Election. 11 were given to Nelson, 8 to Kartwright, and 6 to Arlington. "A little more even than last time," the non-partisan viewer stated.

The bonus votes were given late at night, so the city council vote was not held until the next day. The voting groups voted on the same issues as the previous election. The only major difference was that the DP voting group had no representation. 45 votes went to Nelson, 31 to Kartwright, and 24 to Arlington.

Once again, the results were accepted well. Nelson won the statement and city vote.

Interference
On the day of the statement vote, a US senator, Marco Rubio, submitted a statement despite his party not being valid in Coolsville. His statement was very short in comparison to others and was discredited quickly. The statement attacked sitting mayor Santos Zatenberg, claiming he knew exactly what he was doing and that the damage done Coolsville was deliberate.
