Jimmy has finally been elected Consul and will replace MBH, the man who sensationally beat him 2 years ago. Jimmy won 83.2% of the vote and thus was immediately elected being over the 75% vote mark meaning a run-off against the second place (Yenekran of the Dino Communist Party back on 7.1%) was not needed. Yenekran mounted a legal challenge yesterday to try and force a run-off but it was quickly dismissed by the Dino courts allowing Jimmy to be officially announced as the winner of the vote.
Jimmy said that he would seek to readdress the balance between militarism and an improved social security system. "The Dino Republic has spent vast funds on it's armed forces over the last few years but now we will cut that back a bit in order to give money to unmarried mothers and other improved benefits."
