No.

Three parties nominate 1 candidate. Each candidate chooses which section he's interested in running for (party platform). Whichever candidate wins, he/she will then become a moderator of a specific forum in that section.


Each party will determine its candidate through a primary election. However each person in a primary wants to campaign for votes is up to them.

Ah, I see. Thanks for clearing that up. My reading comprehension skills are apparently quite low these days.

Do the mods choose who are going to be the final three parties.

As noted in the Rules thread, it will be the three parties with the most members.

Will there be a post that shows how many people are in each party? Or possibly who is in what party?

I noticed in the rules that the admins and G-mods are abstaining from voting meaning they won't join parties. But what about the regular mods?

When it gets close to the end of the party formation period I will. For right now, I don't have any desire to keep up with it on the forum and in my spreadsheet because of people changing parties and such.

Only admins are abstaining from voting. G-Mods who DO abstain from the Election will have access to each party's subforum, but those G-Mods who wish to participate will not.

Regular mods will not have access to the party sub-forum, so it's completely up to them whether or not they wish to participate.

What were to happen to a party if their candidate were to be turned down by the admins? Can the party choose another candidate or said party will be out of the running?
