Sadly Moreau is the only one who got the intaki question right, but on the other hand she’s utterly insane with the “science at any cost” thing. AID act on steroids.

Roden leans heavily on Caldari values: corporations and military industry. Not something that I would see as being good for the Federation.

Moreau’s ideas of greater local autonomy might have good intentions behind it, but the history and sociology tells that it’s a slippery road that can lead to collapse of the Federation as an entity into several smaller states. That may be good for some states, but many others would suffer.

Tenzin is looking to preserve the unity through diplomacy. It’s the most conservative bet when it comes to Gallente and their values. Whether or not he got the Intaki question right, I still think that the diplomacy is the best bet. He did say that it’s a balancing act and that’s true.

So, my vote goes to Tenzin.

Completely agree. Roden is the worst option of the three and I don’t want such a President. I’m moving to Amarr space if that happens.

I’m thinking I gotta start rolling Alpha accounts to do more for Tenzin.

According to CCP:

Basically doesn’t matter if majority of players select a specific candidate… A candidate with the least amount of supporters could also win the election…

The only allies the Minmatar Republic has is the Gallente Federation..

Is the Gallente Federation going to attack themselves?

Or are you saying the Gallente Federation is going to attack the Minmatar Republic?

If so, please post an Official link stating that as fact…

This alliance has been dead for 3 years now. I would think a citizen of the Republic would know such basic things. Caldari and Minmatar have signed a peace, the same between Amarr and Gallente. Ever since, the Caldari and Minmatar have been fostering good relations. The Gallente are not our friends any more, they have strayed away from our cause.

That was posted 3 years ago and according to CCP’s Eve Online Help Center, Minmatar and Gallente are still Allied Factions…

According to Google:

> In EVE Online lore, the **Minmatar Republic** and **Gallente Federation** are officially **allied factions**. Their relationship is built on a shared history of opposing the Amarr Empire and a mutual commitment to individual liberties.
> 
> Current State of the Alliance
> 
> - **Strategic Partnership:** The two empires remain the primary opposition to the **Amarr-Caldari** power bloc. This is most visible in **Factional Warfare** , where their militias (the Tribal Liberation Force and Federal Defense Union) operate as allies against their common enemies.
> - **Demographic Bonds:** The alliance is reinforced by deep demographic ties; nearly **one-third** of the ethnic Minmatar population lives within the Gallente Federation.
> - **Recent Mechanical Separation:** As of the [Standings & Awoxing Update](https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&source=web&rct=j&url=https://www.eveonline.com/news/view/standings-and-awoxing-update&ved=2ahUKEwjy2dWswMGTAxUyJUQIHQMiB30Qy_kOegYIAQgEEAM&opi=89978449&cd&psig=AOvVaw3wrNdFKLgNcZPWYvnzsjbS&ust=1774749800554000) (March 10, 2026), CCP Games removed “derived standings” for career agents and promotions. This means that while they are allies in lore, completing missions for one no longer automatically boosts your reputation with the other, allowing players to manage their faction standings more independently.
> - **Lore Divergence:** While still allied, the two have drifted ideologically. The Minmatar Republic has shifted toward a **Tribal Assembly** model of government, moving away from the “unadulterated democracy” favored by the Gallente.

That site is outdated. The Minmatar and Gallente have not renewed any alliance, there has been no alliance for 3 years. They aren’t going to just ally again without an article about it.

You keep saying that but you still haven’t posted anything ‘Official’ to prove it… In fact the stuff you posted said nothing of the Alliance between Minmatar and Gallente being broken…

And as for CCP’s site, I’ll believe that long before I take your word as fact… Especially since Google AI confirms what’s stated in CCP’s website…

Lastly, the outcome of this event doesn’t really matter anyway, the election results were scripted long before this event was even implemented…

Really? You’re one of those? Demand proof of things you don’t agree with but have unverified claims of what you claim. Ok bud…

Anyways, you’re right it doesn’t specifically claim the broken alliances in those articles, however these do. The fact that the Gallente and Amarr are no longer at war or the Caldari and Minmatar are likewise not at war point to this as well. The alliance is broken, hostilies broke at during the shadow war. You living in a bubble isn’t going to change that fact. I know some capsuleer militia corps have each other as blue, but they are not the Republic nor the Federation.

It’s possible, but I think if anything the Amarr may seek the Gallente’s help against the Minmatar, which may happen with Tenzin and his desire for diplomacy. I personally am for Alix for Intaki autonomy and for unlimited science. At it stands, the Amarr are struggling to maintain military presence to match the Minmatar strength.

Man, what a load of malarky… That doesn’t prove the Minmatar and Gallente aren’t allied…
