 === Reintroduction ===
-Maverick reintroduced Direct Democracy on September 3.  At one point the bill was officially defeated, but it finally passed when MP [[Krall]] (SS) switched his vote to Aye.  By his own open, even proud, admission, he was bribed to change his vote by Susano.  President [[TheDarkServant]] signed Direct Democracy into law on September 11.

+On Sept. 20, [[Abdul Hadi Pasha]] raised an objection to the Direct Democracy Bill in the Landsraad on the grounds that it would create too many unnecessary polls and cause "politics fatigue".  So far the objection has not been seconded or thirded, which is required to bring it to a Landsraad vote.
