This was yet another great Election! What a great slate! What action!

The Great Region of Texas officially issues Congratulations to each and every nation that was elected, that ran, that voted, that viewed these proceedings! These were some great elections as usual! Almost all the incumbent Cabinet members who chose to run again were re-elected with the exception of the new Secretary of UN Affairs. We are back to having a single Vice President of Texas. That is a great tribute to the effectiveness of the incumbents! And, almost all of the Texas Representative Council was re-elected as well! There are some who are missing and they will be missed. Also, the TRC is a little beefier this quarter than last, so there are plenty of new members. That is Texcellent! As usual, there were some "moments", but it would not be the Texas Elections if there were not any. Notably the re-vote on the TRC Race, but "stuff" happens.

We also had a considerable amout of Texas Constitution activity! There is now an Endorsement Cap on Texas Nations. No nation can have more than 66% of the number of endorsements of the UN Delegate. For details on how that will work, please see the Texas Constitution, Article XXIII. There was also a bit of a snafu on the size of the Texas Representative Council. There were two competing amendments and both passed. The Texas Government will be working on a satisfactory solution in the coming days.

Big cheers to all the new Texas Representative Council members and new Cabinet members! Farewell to the departing ones, your service is appreciated and we look forward to seeing you once again in the future! Special thanks to all who ran and if you didn't win, we hope you run again in the future.

Overall, this has been great fun and a highlight for all Texans. We look forward to seeing how the new freely-elected Government of Texas will make Texas bigger, better and greater than ever! Cheers to The Great Region of Texas!

Let the festivities begin! The Party has already started on the same thread!

Long Live The Great Region of Texas!
