General elections are currently being held in Osolia, starting on 15 December 2024. This election is the fourth election to utilize the my.osolia system for registering and voting for candidates.
Candidacy registration opened December 1st, 2024 at midnight UTC and will last until voting opens on December 15th, 2024 at midnight UTC.
Candidacy
Chief
One day after candidacy opened, on December 2, 2024, incumbent Chief tz_scion announced that he would likely not seek re-election due to lacking time and motivation for the Chiefdom.
Soon after that announcement, former Director of Finance Hydrogen announced his candidacy for Chief. He stated that he would like to "aid in the implementation of our planned economic reforms as well as continue to develop the Osolian state".
Hydrogen initially ran unopposed, but after some discussion in the election discussion chat, with encouragement from Speaker Michael Webb in particular (stating "I think having competition would be fun, so I encourage you to run"), Josephine announced her candidacy for Chief on December 4, 2024.
The next day, on December 5, 2024, former Chief and current Director of Infrastructure CalvinX decided to run after "kicking the idea around" for a while. He stated that, "I would more or less run as a status quo candidate, since based on the server activity, we’re collectively not in a Minecraft mood".
On December 6, 2024, Josephine released a document detailing her platform called "Caterpillar's Manifesto". This manifesto detailed her plans for her term as Chief, including further city reforms and the development of a government building complex called Capitol Park.
No candidates have currently announced their cabinet, although Josephine has stated that she would try to hire as many of the current cabinet as possible, and Calvin has asked anyone interested in a position to message him directly.
Speaker
One day after candidacy opened, on October 2, 2024, Speaker Michael Webb announced he would be seeking a third term as Speaker. He simply stated in his candidacy announcement that he wants "to get what I’ve helped work on done - economic reform and the expansion of Osolia, to be exact. I’m ready to work with whoever the people elect as Chief to get this done."
So far, he is running unopposed.
