User blog:Jam7/Another election blog post from Jammy.

Well, sort of.

First off, I just want to remind you all that the round of voting going on right now is just to determine the final two candidates. And on September 19, the actual campaign for the presidency begins. If I advance to the final two, I'll begin to post a series of blog posts on that date that will elaborate on the ideas I outlined in my [http://totaldramaisland.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:Jam7/Jam%27s_Running_for_President! first election blog post], as well as a few new ideas that I've thought about. I also plan to schedule a press conference that will take place in the wiki's IRC, where you can ask me any questions you have about my campaign or what I have planned. Don't worry, I like being interviewed. xD

Secondly, if you haven't already, I urge you guys to read Kg's latest blog post. Like he says, this election shouldn't be seen as a mere popularity contest. I understand that I'm in the lead right now, and I'm seriously grateful to my supporters for putting me in that position. But the other three candidates are fantastic people, and more importantly, people who are entirely capable of continuing to positively change the wiki for the better. In other words, please don't vote for a candidate just because they happen to like the same characters you like. Vote for the candidate that you feel would best represent the wiki through their ideas, their demeanor, and their leadership capacity. Naturally, my goal is to be that ideal candidate, and I've worked hard to improve this wiki. But don't forget -- the other candidates are entirely deserving of the title of president as well.

And finally, I want to address a concern I've heard from a couple people privately. I understand that for the past couple of weeks, I haven't been as active as you guys would normally expect out of me. The reason for that is simple -- I'm back at university. I've had to deal with orientation, new classmates, new textbooks, financial aid, living conditions, changing my work schedule, and homework. Oh, and having to juggle a social life on top of all that! That doesn't mean that I'm leaving this wiki, or that I'm not going to devote any more time to editing here. All it means is that things have been quite hectic in real life, and I apologize for my relative inactivity. This week -- and the coming weeks ahead -- should be much better for me.

Thanks for reading.
