The heads of the DDS' Terrestrial and Space Forces have both publicly backed Knobhead ahead of the vote for DDS Commander on Tuesday. DDS Terrestrial Forces head Zeppelin said that Knobhead has the right ideas and qualities to build on Firefly's vision. Space Force head Caretore said that Knobhead was a shrewd operator who had already proven himself as Director of Operations.
Most senior DDS have now backed Knobhead who has over 84% support. Von Kane says he is not giving up though his latest rally at DDS City was poorly attended and marred by violence.
