Austin Island politics have been  f ed up  the last two  weeks and   in the last two days  the monarch has to find a way to pay 120 million units for next years budget either by   taxable  donations or some sort odd way to make loose ends. some   government financial analyst say to cut finding from capital city programs or austin island public broadcasting which would mean a  fraction of  the  projected 2 billion unit budget is going to be cut according to next years budget in austin island  public broadcasting will recieve 12,500,000 units. the monarch has the hard decision to pull the  plug on big bird or  cut other thingsin the kingdoms   budget that are not so necessary or cut congressional pay. one third of  that  buget   shortfall goes back to bank  of austin island as repairations from the embezzled   40 million units. the other 80 million units  come from  municipal shortfalls.  since all of the smaller municipalities are thinking of using cranders trash service saving the government money to repay the bank.  this comes only   two and a  half weeks  prior to the  big runoff election the senate is   thiking of having a national vote and proportion the seats by national vote.

Monarch predicts any where from 2000 to 2500 people to vote

CAPITAL CITY- Monarch  predicts anywhere from 2000 to  2500 people to vote in  the runoff election which is pretty high turnout  compared to australia. with an elligible non-incarcerated electorate that is anywhere from 70% to 88% of the  non incarcerated voter populaton to vote which is double  the turnout in the first round. that is beacuse more people  are having a   voice beacuse the monarch is selling the voters a  tactic to get any one who has not got their job back to  get it  back soon. Lets see if his tactic is selling lets look at austin island  unemployment  data from  june,4th to  july,6th  the  governmnent is  publishing unemployment numbers at the end of each phase.  

Data   from june,4th   1,339 people unemployed  elligible work force 1,921  percent unemployed  70%.

Data from  monday    599 people unemployed  elligible work force 1,921   percent  unemployed  31%

This claim is   true   beacuse more than half of the people that were unemployed on june fourth   went back  to work

the monarch is also selling a  claim  that  testing has sped up since may 21st lets look at the data

May,21st  Tests  to date 188

July,7th    Tests to date  752

this claim is  true  beacuse tests went up  four fold  testing  206 people per 1,000 residents and  since july,1st  223 tests have been taken and none of them have tested positive.

Question 3:  i have  been recently released from jail   can i  vote

Yes you  can vote   but you need some  court documents that prove that you  have been recently released. Failure  to do so is a level 5 crime in austin island and 27 sentencing points which is no jail time but  the judge can put you under house arrest.

Only   four weeks   before the monarchial   runoff election    and some  people  in the  kingdom have  some  questions in  which we here at  austin island news  will answer for you. 

Question one:Why isn't  the monarchy  hereditary
Good Question    the  monarchy is not hereditary  beacuse of the fact that in austin island  there are fair and democratic elections   to elect the monarch once every  three years in which  he or  she can renew twice.

Question  two:Why Do We  have  a  runoff election 
The Reason  Why we have a  runoff election is  beacuse no  candidate  got a majority  or exceeded 50% of the  vote In  the  first round  and there fore we  have a  runoff to decide a  winner  by law. in  a first past the post setting Austin young  would have won  even though garnering  less than 20% of the vote.

Question  three: f I am  casting an absentee ballot for the election   when do I have to have it  in 
If you are casting an absentee ballot you must cast it at your municipal post office all early absentee ballots must be in seven days prior to the election. f you want to cast your ballot a little bit later make sure to cast your absentee ballot at your municipal post office by July,29th at 9:00pm.  so the monarch can count all of the ballots.
