Global Elections

Farmers are always willing to do their civic duty. Sometimes with a plow, sometimes with a gun...

An election has been called on Phaethon, and all three systems of government are vying for the chance to claim the frontier planet.

Ever since the revelation of her existence, most people have taken one of her sensors, and she is doing her best to influence the vote.

More important, how many people are going to die before Election Day?
