Charles D Drake was elected as Senate President Pro Tempore for the second time. And I had to choose Frederick Douglass as my faction leader again, as he is the only one who meets all the requirements. He gained another point in command, and if by some miracle I could get him elected, he would make a solid president, other than the crippling "easily overwhelmed" trait. Maybe I can convince Grant to put him on the ticket as VP.
In addition, I did have one politician switch parties to join mine; Frank Hiscock, who is a pretty good legislator, but unfortunately he's from New York which is overcrowded with politicians. Plus, his name makes me laugh because I have the sense of humor of a 12 year old.
Next up is committee selections. Here's where my guys ended up.
