Ruberto Morbidelli
Despite many vocal opposition by many senators the Senate voted unanimous as tradition to confer authority upon Morbidelli. Speaking outside the Senate steps, Morbidelli gave his first speech as Consul. "The people of this city and this nation have spoken and they want change instead of the frivolous promises that past politicians have given them. It is time that this government starts to work for for the people and not to serve itself at the expense of the people. It is time that we reach out to mend our relations with our neighbors in Jurzan and Carentania. It is time we move forward with progress." Morbidelli was able to win the Prefecture of Talemaniki with campaign promises of governmental reform and economic assistance for the poor.
Also today the palace announced that will will be hosting the traditional Consul's Gala in honor of the new Consul. It is expected that the invitations will be sent out this week to many international leaders and state representatives.
