Heres where the candidates stand on the issues:
Vitani (L)
*Supports water rationing system of Mohatu. *Believes that Congress should be the ultimate authority. *Strong advocate for lioness rights. *Believes the OLR (Organzation for Lioness Rights) should determine how to ration food from hunts. *Prefers to leave religion out of decision-making. *Has been endoresed by Nala.
Kovu (C)
*Opposes the water rationing system. *Believes more power should be vested in the President (i.e. decisions of Cabinet should not be approved by Congress). *Straight-laced member of the ODR. *Believes male-influenced Congress should decide how to ration food from lionesses' hunts. *Favors more emphasized political relationship with Rafiki and other religious leaders. *Has been endorsed by Simba.
3rd Party, possibly Jona (I)
*Equality among all walks of life. *Sharing of power between President and Congress. *

He also seems like he's a little one-sided, to try and win over the majority's votes; I.E: The lionesses of the pride.

Well, the majority of voters would probably be liberal ODR members so wouldn't Vitani appeal to them? lol

Despite this statement being almost the polar opposite of my last comment, I make it anyway:
It would also seem like common sense to support the one that pledges to do the most, not just support your own party member because they are thus....

While I would Like to believe the names were put on the wrong beliefs [it seems the most logical to me that vitani as a female would be pro-lioness equality, and supporting the OLR's choice on kill splitting, since it wouldn't make sense that she'd be an anti-female rights person, being a female herself...

[[ Fine, if Timonpumbaa doesn't mind his/her vote being skewered.... ]] This seems a little more reasonable, and I'm going to vote for 'Tani. Not only does she support the majority and not the minority, but she'z also friqin' HAWT.

Using my l337 monkey powers of future-predicting, I think the 3rd party voter stealers are going to get less than 10% of votes since there is no explaination of their stance/pledges to do stuff!!

Hmmm.... Even then, I think they're destined to failure. Their campaign focuses are too broad, and they really don't have much else to offer. Besides. Vitani is still too sexy.
