JVC3: /* Formatting */ Typo

== Formatting ==

Right, ok - so I've tried everything I can possibly think of to get this to work, but it just doesn't want to for some reason. 
This is the best I got:
<nowiki>[</nowiki>[[wikipedia:Wikipedia:Citation_needed|''citation needed'']]<nowiki>]</nowiki>

What I'm trying to do is to get rid of the underline from the "citation needed" text, which is how it shows up on Wikipedia, but there doesn't seem to be a way.

Here's what I've tried:
* creating a span tag around the text and giving it the class "citation-needed", then adding a rule to [[MediaWiki:Common.css]] which would remove the underline:
** <code><nowiki>...</nowiki></code>
** <code>.citation-needed { text-decoration: none !important; font-style: italic; }</code>
* defining the css inline
** <code><nowiki>...</nowiki></code>
* creating my own <code><nowiki><a></nowiki></code> tags, but mediawiki just refuses to accept u making ur own links like that

The only thing I haven't tried is to write some js to fix it, and I'm sure that could work, but I think Tech would kill me if I started messing w the global [[MediaWiki:Common.js|Common.js]] file and got something wrong, so I'm not gonna do that.

Anyways, if anyone else can find a way, I will love u forever xoxo

{{Infobox player
| username = Technofied
| uuid = 7f002e0c-72ea-4b6b-b989-8ff45bd6dd3b
| full_name = James Fletcher
| join_date = 16 March 2020

'''James Fletcher''' (joined 16 March 2020; username '''Technofied'''), also known as '''Tech''', or occasionally '''Tuk''', is a Redmontian politician, senior administrator, and owner of DemocracyCraft, along with [[xEndeavour]] (End). He is currently serving as the [[President of Redmont]].

== Early life and server ownership ==
[[File:CoatofArms.png|200px|thumb|left|alt=Redmont Coat of Arms|The Redmont Coat of Arms, referencing Tech]]
Tech joined the server just over a week after its foundation, while it was still in Beta. He was quickly made a member of staff, one of the server's first.

In September 2020, after the retirement of founder and owner [[Jaynormous]], Technofied took up co-ownership of the server along with End and has been an instrumental driver in optimisation and server progression ever since. Tech is often regarded as the server’s technical specialist while End primarily manages the player base and staff team.

== Political career ==
=== xEndeavour administration ===
==== Vice president ====
On the 26th of August 2020, Technofied was appointed as the third [[Vice President]] of the Commonwealth of Redmont by then-president, xEndeavour. He served the rest of End's term, his tenure ending in October of the same year. As one of the first Vice Presidents of Redmont, he helped set precedents for how the position of VP should be run, as well as the executive branch as a whole.

=== Bezzergeezer administration ===
==== Secretary of Homeland Security ====
Tech was appointed to the position of Secretary of Homeland Security in June of 2024 by President [[Bezzergeezer]]. During his term, he revitalised the Department of Homeland Security, offered strong leadership and provided guidance to not only the President, but others in the administration and wider community.

He was succeeded by [[HellsideBurnton]].

==== Secretary of Construction & Transport ====
He was also appointed the Secretary of Construction & Transport, in which capacity he reformed the Department, restoring its efficiency and making it operate smoothly.

==== Presidential commendation ====
In the President's words, "[his] unwavering commitment to improving Redmont’s government is clear in every action he takes ... His remarkable contributions deserve recognition and respect for his tireless efforts".<ref name="PC">[https://www.democracycraft.net/threads/executive-order-23-24-president-bezzers-commendations.23593/ "Executive Order - Executive Order 23/24 - President Bezzers Commendations"]</ref>

For his work in these positions, he was given a [[List of presidential commendations|presidential commendation]].<ref name="PC"/>

Tech is often humorously referred to as a 'god', notably in [[Redmont]]'s national motto "In End and Tech We Trust" as found on the [[Government Branding#Coat of Arms|Coat of Arms]], a play on [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In_God_We_Trust "In God We Trust"], the official motto of the United States.

The reason for this is unclear, however, may be explained by a combination of factors:
* There is a [https://www.democracycraft.net//threads/constitution.6/#post-6:~:text=It%27s%20important%20to%20note%20that%20the%20Government%20and%20the%20Server%20Staff%20have%20completely%20different%20roles%20and%20functions constitutional mandate] for staff and government to "have completely different roles and functions"<ref>https://www.democracycraft.net//threads/constitution.6/#post-6:~:text=It%27s%20important%20to%20note%20that%20the%20Government%20and%20the%20Server%20Staff%20have%20completely%20different%20roles%20and%20functions</ref>

* The owners, Tech and End, have the final say on all staff matters.
* Since staff can veto government decisions, and the owners are the heads of the staff team, they act, in a sense, as higher powers to which there is no course for debate.
* The closest equivalent to this, in the real world, is a God.

<blockquote>Main article: [[Tukmas]]</blockquote>
"[[Tukmas]]" is a humorous term for Christmas derived from Technofied's name. The Tuk- prefix, which is also used in the name of [[St. Tuk Cathedral]], is widely used in the DemocracyCraft community, and is often applied more broadly to Christmas-related terms.

'''James Fletcher''' (joined 16 March 2020; username '''Technofied'''), also known as '''Tech''', or occasionally '''Tuk''', is a Redmontian politician, senior administrator, and owner of DemocracyCraft, along with [[xEndeavour]] (End). He is currently serving as the [[President of Redmont]].

== Early life and server ownership ==
[[File:CoatofArms.png|200px|thumb|left|alt=Redmont Coat of Arms|The Redmont Coat of Arms, referencing Tech]]
Tech joined the server just over a week after its foundation, while it was still in Beta. He was quickly made a member of staff, one of the server's first.

In September 2020, after the retirement of founder and owner [[Jaynormous]], Technofied took up co-ownership of the server along with End and has been an instrumental driver in optimisation and server progression ever since. Tech is often regarded as the server’s technical specialist while End primarily manages the player base and staff team.

== Political career ==
Unlike his fellow co-owner End, Tech has never sought the office of the Presidency,<ref>[[List of presidential elections]]</ref> however, he has served on a number of occasions in various positions in the Executive and further afield.

=== xEndeavour administration ===
==== Vice president ====
On the 26th of August 2020, Technofied was appointed as the third [[Vice President]] of the Commonwealth of Redmont by then-president, xEndeavour. He served the rest of End's term, his tenure ending in October of the same year. As one of the first Vice Presidents of Redmont, he helped set precedents for how the position of VP should be run, as well as the executive branch as a whole.

=== Bezzergeezer administration ===
==== Secretary of Homeland Security ====
Tech was appointed to the position of Secretary of Homeland Security in June of 2024 by President [[Bezzergeezer]]. During his term, he revitalised the Department of Homeland Security, offered strong leadership and provided guidance to not only the President, but others in the administration and wider community.

He was succeeded by [[HellsideBurnton]].

==== Secretary of Construction & Transport ====
He was also appointed the Secretary of Construction & Transport, in which capacity he reformed the Department, restoring its efficiency and making it operate smoothly.

==== Presidential commendation ====
In the President's words, "[his] unwavering commitment to improving Redmont’s government is clear in every action he takes ... His remarkable contributions deserve recognition and respect for his tireless efforts".<ref name="PC">[https://www.democracycraft.net/threads/executive-order-23-24-president-bezzers-commendations.23593/ "Executive Order - Executive Order 23/24 - President Bezzers Commendations"]</ref>

For his work in these positions, he was given a [[List of presidential commendations|presidential commendation]].<ref name="PC"/>

Incapacitation of Juniper Fig

2026-02-16T00:27:38Z

JVC3: Updated to reflect Tech's inauguration

{{Infobox

On 29 January 2026, President of the Senate [[Talion Contour]] announced that President [[Juniper Fig]] had been incapacitated. Acting President [[Multiman155]], who had served as the [[vice president]], became the 26th [[president of Redmont]]. [[Multiman155 administration|Multiman155's term]] expired on 15 February, when [[Technofied]] was sworn in as his successor. Multiman155 had already announced [[Multiman155 February 2026 presidential campaign|his bid]] in the election while serving as acting president.

== Background ==
On 19 January, Vice President Multiman155 began acting in the capacity of the president as Juniper Fig had became unable to serve due to an IRL health crisis.<ref>{{Cite Discord|url=https://discord.com/channels/673612908868927498/686158870435201035/1462621405207199898|messager=papam_franciscus|channel=government-announcements|server=DemocracyCraft|date=19 January 2026}}</ref>

== Initial announcement ==
On 29 January, Acting President Multiman155 announced that the Cabinet had voted to remove Fig and that he had approached the leadership of the [[35th Senate]]. "This is a terrible day. It has been a terrible week. I really had hoped that it could come to anything but this. . . . My heart is broken. Both for juniperfig and for our server."<ref name=":2">{{Cite Discord|url=https://discord.com/channels/673612908868927498/686158870435201035/1466401795667529750|messager=papam_franciscus|server=DemocracyCraft|channel=government-announcements|date=29 January 2026}}</ref>

== Cabinet vote ==
On 23 January,<ref name=":2" /> eight members of the Cabinet voted to incapacitate Fig: Attorney General [[Dogeington Anthropy]], Secretary of Commerce [[Eliesia Crime]], Secretary of Construction and Transport [[Four Tyfour]], Secretary of Education [[Scassany Contour]], Secretary of the Interior [[winter wolf]], Secretary of Public Affairs [[lucaaasserole]] and Secretary of State [[A__C]].<ref name=":0">{{Cite Discord|url=https://discord.com/channels/794162227837534208/1466418791062835230|messager=photolithography|channel=senate-voting|server=Congress of Redmont|date=29 January 2026}}</ref>

== Senate vote ==
On 29 January 2026, Deputy President of the Senate [[EATB]] (NDP) motioned to incapacitate President Fig. In slightly over four hours, five of the six senators had voted, all aye; one senator was not present.<ref name=":1">{{Cite Discord|url=https://discord.com/channels/794162227837534208/1466418791062835230/1466482873405149348|messager=talion77|channel=senate-voting|server=Congress of Redmont|date=29 January 2026}}</ref>

Each of the five senators who voted explained their vote:

* '''Omegabiebel''': "It is with heavy heart that I must vote :aye~7:. I truly hope we'll see her again on DC and that she generally recovers from her situation"
* '''EATB''': " I support this begrudgingly. I wish this never happened, but sadly Juniperfig's ill-health has rendered her unable to continue office physically. I hope that she has a speedy recovery and that she returns to this community soon. She is loved by us all."
* '''Talion Contour''': "With great regret, I vote :aye~7:. I hope juniper enjoys a swift recovery and gets back to us soon."
* '''zLost''': ":aye~7: - I echo what my fellow senators said and wish juniperfig a quick recovery."
* '''Ryland Wethersbee''': ":aye~7: We love Juni, but in this current state she has not been able to fulfill her presidential duties. I wish the best for Juniper and I am praying for her full recovery."

== Public response ==
While the Senate was voting on the motion, former Representative [[xEndeavour]] encouraged all senators to vote against the removal of Fig and called Multiman155's actions "a powergrab [''sic'']" and stated, "[It] Costs us nothing to maintain the status quo."<ref>{{Cite Discord|url=https://discord.com/channels/673612908868927498/1432327020011847780/1466419718905659436|messager=xendeavour|channel=politics|server=DemocracyCraft|date=29 January 2026}}</ref> xEndeavour was immediately met with strong backlash.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://discord.com/channels/673612908868927498/754622580777812130/1466461426884546769|title="JUST A POWER GRAB" - XENDEAVOUR: GONE TOO FAR?|author=CramberryBush|newspaper=MZP|publication_date=29 January 2026}}</ref><blockquote>"This is not a power grab. She is genuinely physically incapable of continuing her job as President due to her illness and inability to access communications. You should know the Constitution yourself given that you helped author it and that you were President of the Senate when UnityMaster was incapacitated. Turning this into an argument about this being a power grab is disrespectful, Juniperfig is in close contact with Multiman and would've wanted this. How do you expect her to carry out her duties in her poor condition? I wish her all the best and she wouldn'tve wanted this petty debate and dramatisation. This isn't about Multiman.

[[Chestshops]] are where you can buy or sell materials from/to players and firms. To buy an item, right click on the sign, and to sell, left click on the sign. You can shift click to buy/sell an entire stack!

To find chest shops for an item you need, run the command <code>/find (item)</code>!

[[Chestshops|You can learn more about creating chest shops by reading our guide.]]

=== Jobs and exams ===
One of the first things you should do is get your first job! You can do this by going to our [[University]] by entering {{code|/university}} in game.

We have '''three''' main categories of jobs:

# '''Trade''' - these are considered manual labour jobs with not many special perks.
#* They are good for beginners who want an easier starting off point. Rarely do these types of jobs provide direct pay, you usually have to sell what you get as a part of the trade job.
#'''Professions''' - these jobs build on trade jobs by having more advanced or special perks.
#*This could be specialised crafting recipes or plugin features.
#* Not all professions will provide you with a wage.
#'''Government''' - you cannot get a government job immediately, but after around 48 hours of in-game playtime a lot of players apply for these jobs on {{DCForums|Forums=our forums}}.

At any given time, you can have one trade job, one profession, and unlimited government jobs!

For more detailed information, check out individual [[:Category:Jobs|job guides]] that interest you!

=== Chat ===
Our server is unique, as there are three chat channels you use to talk to other players. Please read this carefully as you will need to use these channels quite often!

* '''Global (<code>/g</code>)''' - this is the default channel for everyone. You only need to run the alias command when you aren't in the channel. This channel allows everyone to read your messages.
* '''Local (<code>/l</code>)''' - this is a channel with a 50 block radius. Only people within 50 blocks can read your messages (hear you!). Please use this when you are: talking to players right in front of you, seeking treatment from a Doctor, or in an event.
* '''Murmur (<code>/murmur</code>) -''' This channel has a 5 block radius, for more secretive chats in-game!
* '''Private Messages (<code>/msg <username></code>)''' - this allows you to have a one on one conversation with anyone. Replace <code><username></code> with whomever you want to talk to!

In addition to these channel commands, you may want to learn some other handy commands. We recommend you visit [[Useful commands| this guide]] sometime after you finish this one!

=== Health ===

On this server, we have a custom health plugin which enables players to experience sickness and injuries. You will most likely experience broken legs and flesh wounds, both will give you slowness and/or random damage. Monitor your health status at any time by entering {{code|/health status}} in-game!

If you fall ill, head to the Hospital and click the computer head to request a doctor. You can get to the hospital by dying (not recommended!) or by entering {{code|/gps start hospital}} in-game.

{{Note |text=Medicare
 All of your health expenses will be covered by Medicare - a free universal healthcare program!|type=reminder}}

=== Government ===
Our government consists of three branches: legislative, executive, and judiciary.

The legislative branch, or Congress, is split into two parts: the House of Representatives (HoR) and the Senate. Representatives in the HoR are responsible for creating legislation, while Senators review and vote on proposed bills from the HoR.

The executive branch comprises the president, vice president, and Cabinet. The president and vice president are elected democratically by the players every four months, leading the government as a whole! This is the same electoral system we use to elect our Legislative branch. The Cabinet consists of advisors who oversee various government departments.

The Judiciary branch runs the court system. Citizens have the right to bring legal disputes against each other, with Judges presiding over cases and determining appropriate punishments based on {{DCForums|Link=/threads/constitution.6/#post-6|Forums=our constitution}}.

Apart from judges and Cabinet members, who require presidential nomination and Senate approval, anyone can run for a government position. To participate in an election, simply join the race in our {{DCForums|Link=/forums/elections-referendums.27|Forums=Election and Referendums forum}}

[[file:will_you_be_our_next_president.png|600px]]

=== Worlds ===

We have a mixture of creative, survival, wilderness, and urban worlds! Here's a breakdown of what you can expect from each:

==== Wilderness ====

* Keep Inventory: ON
* Plot Claiming: ALLOWED
* PVP: ALLOWED
* Laws: APPLY
* Resets: NEVER

The [[Wild|Wilderness]] is a naturally generated world where players can explore, gather resources, build bases, and engage in various unregulated activities. In this world, you are free to roam and create, but keep in mind that some laws still apply.

Use the command <code>/airport</code>, then right-click on one of the nearby computer monitors to open a menu, where you can select your wilderness destination.

{{Note|text=Plot claiming
 There are limited laws in the wild, protect your belongings by regioning land through a staff ticket for $10/block and by /locking your containers.|type=error}}

==== Everwild, End, and Nether ====

* Keep Inventory: OFF
* Plot Claiming: NOT ALLOWED
* PVP: ALLOWED
* Laws: LAWLESS
* Resets: Regularly

The Everwild, End, and Nether are treacherous and lawless realms, with no governing rules to guide your actions. These dangerous worlds are perfect for players looking for high-risk adventures, where survival is up to your skill and luck.

To reach the Everwild, use <code>/airport</code> and interact with a computer monitor to get your ticket. The End and Nether can be accessed through the Wilderness or Everwild worlds.

{{Note|text=Protect your items!
 Keep Inventory is OFF in the End, Nether, and Everwild. When you die, you will drop all of your inventory.|type=warn}}

==== Property, plots and apartments ====

Players have the opportunity to rent and own various properties both in the city and the wilderness. These plots are technically referred to as "regions". If you own a plot in the city, you are able to build anything on it as long as it meets {{DCForums|Link=/threads/eviction-information.17/|Forums=government regulations}}. Most new players don't start off with plots, you will usually need to save up a lot of money first.

To see plots for sale, run the commands <code>/as info forsale</code> and <code>/as info reselling</code>. On the Discord, eviction auctions are hosted periodically, and many plots go for sale there as well.

For new players, we recommend that you wander inside large skyscrapers/apartment buildings for an apartment or rental shop instead. You can right click signs that say "[For Rent]" to rent your first apartment!

You can check properties you own or rent using <code>/as me</code>. To see information on a region, use the command <code>/as info region --region (region name) </code>

[[file:reveille_city.png|600px]]

==== Businesses ====
You will often see [[chestshops]] and plots that are branded or owned by businesses. Chestshops will often have <code>b:<company name></code> and plots will have company logos on them. You are able to start your own business by getting an entrepreneur license from our University.

[[file:sausage_sizzle_stands.png|600px]]

==== That's all! ====
Great job on making it this far! We're excited to have you! Feel free to ask questions in-game, and if you haven't already, be sure to join our {{DCDiscord}}

{{Sidebar 1950minecrafter}}
'''1950minecrafter''' (joined 13 April 2020), also known as simply '''1950''', is a Redmontian politician who is currently serving as the 20th [[List of presidents|President of Redmont]]. 1950 was the first player to have joined DemocracyCraft after its release, and became a significant political figure on the server for years after, founding the first political party in Redmont to moderate success, and championing many of the first laws that guide the server today. He is currently a member of the [[Workers' Party of Redmont]].

== Early History ==
=== Creation of the SPP ===
[[File:SPP_Logo_2.png|200px|thumb|left|The Logo of the SPP]]
On May 5th 2020, 1950 applied for the creation of his political party, the [[Socialist Party of the People|Socialist Party of the People (SPP)]]. It took part in the 1st Congressional Election, securing a majority of 4 seats out of 7 in [[Congress]]. 1950 ran, and became Redmont’s second [[Speaker of the House]] following the resignation of the first Speaker, superpacman04. 1950 authored bills such as the [https://www.democracycraft.net/threads/conspiracy-act.310/ Conspiracy Act] and the [https://www.democracycraft.net/threads/public-indecency-act.431/ Public Indecency Act].<ref>https://www.democracycraft.net/threads/conspiracy-act.310/#post-738</ref><ref>https://www.democracycraft.net/threads/public-indecency-act.431/#post-1088</ref>

As the 2nd congressional election drew near, a new party was on the rise: the [[Political parties#Democratic Reformist Party|Democratic Reformist Party (DRP)]]. They grew to a membership greater than the SPP or [[Political parties#National Alliance Party|National Alliance Party (NAP)]], and threatened to upset the two-party status quo. As such, 1950 and Dusty_3 agreed to work in coalition, by having their members vote for candidates from both of their parties. Due to the nature of elections at the time, the vote tally throughout the voting period was live, incentivising parties to campaign for more votes if they were losing. The NAP and DRP both partook in this, however, the SPP did not, resulting in the party winning no seats in the next Congress, and a fall in prominence. Congress was therefore split between the NAP and DRP, with the SPP left to rethink their future courses of action.

=== Break from DC and Subsequent Ban ===
The sole source for this section is 1950minecrafter's own testimony. It should not be considered false, however, the facts in this section could be biased.<ref name="iv">Discord interview conducted between 1950minecrafter and JVC3</ref>
==== Dissatisfaction with DC Politics ====
By the end of June 2020, after [[Krix]] formed the [[Democratic Reformist Party]], toxicity in politics had begun to rise. This annoyed 1950, but he remained a member of the server for at least a month afterwards.<ref name="iv"/>

In July of 2020, following his unsuccessful reelection bid and the overall defeat of the SPP, losing all of their seats in the House and Senate, 1950 felt he had little to incentivise him to be active on the server, other than maintaining his apartment company, 'MAO S.A'. He therefore decided to take a break from the server. This was meant only to be for a few weeks, with the intention to come back once toxicity in DC politics had subsided.<ref name="iv"/>

==== The New Server ====
A few days after he announced that he was taking a break, 1950 was approached by some other players who had also decided to take a break, asking him to join another City RP server as a builder. This server was run by an individual only remembered today by his initials 'TBI'.<ref name="iv"/> 1950 was initially apprehensive due to the fact that he wanted to take a break from the City RP genre as a whole, but eventually relented, with the stipulation that he would only be hired as a builder for the server.<ref name="iv"/>

After a few days as a builder, 1950 was offered the position of moderator on the new server. There was a rule on DemocracyCraft at the time known as 'non-compete', stating that members of DC could not be Staff or Administrators on servers that competed with DC, however, 1950 felt as if he was not in breach of this rule, due to the fact that he was simply a moderator.<ref name="iv"/>

===== Release Day and Aftermath =====
On the day of the new server's launch, a few members of the DC community, including owners [[Technofied]] and [[xEndeavour]] joined the new server to have a look at their competition.<ref name="iv"/> On the same day as the launch, the new server's map was deleted and the server was corrupted under mysterious circumstances. The reason for this has never been determined, however, many theories, including foul play, have been shared.<ref name="iv"/> After the failed release, TBI was never heard from again and could not be consulted on the true reason for the new server's demise.<ref name="iv"/>

The following day, 1950 was informed that he had been banned due to being in breach of the 'non-compete' rule.<ref name="iv"/> To this day, 1950 insists that he was simply a moderator, therefore not in breach of the rules and that the ban was "wrongly and unjustly applied on [him]".<ref name="iv"/> This ban took effect on the 24th of July, 2020.

After the ban, 1950 made the decision to retire from DC altogether.<ref name="iv"/>

== SPP After 1950 ==
=== September 2020 Congressional Elections ===
Shortly after 1950’s ban on July 30, The_MarxSisters was elected as the party's next Chair, promising reforms to the party in preparation for the September congressional election. Their performance disappointed many in the party, winning only one seat, and falling a few votes shy of winning two or three seats.

Shortly after this election, two special elections were held in Congress due to resignations. The SPP ran kevv as their candidate in the first special election, achieving 9 votes, far less than the DRP candidate, ronsampaul, who achieved 18. The SPP did not field a candidate for the second special election. In September of the same year, Senate elections were introduced, for which the SPP fielded _37__ as their candidate. They won 21 votes, just shy of the 22 needed to tie with the winner of the third seat.

=== The Red Army ===
[[File:Red_Army_Poster.png|200px|thumb|right|A Recruitment Poster for the Red Army]]
Shortly before these elections on August 20th, the militant Red Army was incorporated as a wing of the SPP. The Red Army previously launched an attack against the DC Capitol, and had a standoff with the police. Many players disliked the Red Army for these actions, and the SPP, in their decision to tie themselves to the organization, received negative attention.

== Return to DC ==
During September and October of 2020, 1950 received a number of messages from owner [[xEndeavour|End]] and player Dusty_3 asking him to return to the server.<ref name="iv"/> On October the 23rd, 1950 lodged an appeal against his ban. The DC competitor server was no longer extant, and staff had a change of heart about the players they banned. A day later, it was accepted.

The SPP immediately held a leadership election due to growing dissatisfaction with The_MarxSisters and the creation of the Red Army. 1950 was chosen as the new Chair on November 6, and immediately began work on the ongoing November Congressional elections. The party fared better, with candidates 1950 and JoanM999 securing 2 of the 7 available [[House of Representatives|House] seats. This began a trend of the SPP performing better when 1950 was on the ballot and directly involved. The following election in January saw the House expanded from 7 to 9 seats, and the SPP again won 2 seats, with candidates 1950 and Red Army leader Olefante being elected. The party also fielded a candidate for the Senate, _37__, who lost with only 19 votes in his favour.

=== First and Second Presidential Runs ===
[[File:1950_PUG.png|300px|thumb|left|A Campaign Poster for 1950's January 2021 Run]]
On January 26, 2021, 1950 announced his candidacy for President with running mate Pugbandit. His main competition was the DRP leader [[Krix]] and his running mate hugebob23456. The DRP was at one of its most successful points, and they were the favourite to win. A third contender was an independent candidate, Austin27, with running mate xEndeavour. Austin27 eventually dropped out, with xEndeavour running with Zab as his running mate.

In a surprise result, no candidate reached a majority, with Krix receiving the most votes at 94 and 48.2% of the total vote. 1950 was second, with 64 votes, and xEndeavour was third with 37. This prompted a runoff between Krix and 1950, in which Krix received 108 votes to 1950’s 89. Krix became Redmont’s 3rd President, and 1950 continued his work in the House.

[[File:1950_Sprite.png|300px|thumb|right|A Campaign Poster for 1950's June 2021 Run]]
1950 decided to run alongside running mate, byeSprite, in the next presidential election in June of 2021, winning 69 votes and proceeded to a runoff against Austin27, who won 98 votes in the first round. 1950 was again thwarted in a runoff, winning 70 votes to Austin27’s 95.

=== Resignation from Party Chairmanship ===
The SPP continued to participate in congressional elections, securing 2 to 3 seats each time. 1950 received modest support each time, with enough personal votes to elect another member of the party. However, the party failed to significantly grow to any significant prominence. In October 2021, 1950 chose not to run in the party’s leadership election, and Aladeen became the new Chair. The party received a surprise new member in Krix, who was the sole SPP candidate to win a seat in the [[Congress 2021#NOVEMBER|November 2021 House election]].

=== Second Departure from DC ===
1950 stepped back from the public eye at this point, and his activity declined until leaving the server altogether. The SPP declined further until its eventual dissolution through a merger with the [[Neodemocratic Party of Redmont|Neodemocratic Party]] (later the Democratic Party) on February 20, 2022. Five months later, on July 25, 2022, former SPP member xeu100 announced a return of the party, and outlined a three-phase plan, however, this was the last update in the party’s Discord server.

== Second Return and Presidency ==
In January of 2025, along with the [[Trolligarch wave]], 1950 returned to the community and joined the newly-created [[Workers' Party of Redmont|Workers' Party of Redmont (WPR)]]. As the WPR was largely made up of new players, 1950's experience and leadership made him a natural choice for a Presidential candidate.

=== Third Presidential Run and Lawsuit ===
[[File:1950_Yeet.png|250px|thumb|left|A Campaign Roundel for 1950's February 2025 Run]]
In February 2025, 1950 announced his [[February 2025 presidential election|candidacy for the Presidency]] alongside his running mate [[Yeet Boy|Yeet_Boy]] of the [[Galactic Empire of Redmont|Galactic Empire of Redmont (GER)]], pursuant to the two parties' recent coalition agreement.

1950 ran against [[xEndeavour]] of the [[Redmont Reform Party]], as well as [[Vernicia]] and [[TheMusica]], both independents. 1950 emerged victorious, with 62 votes against End's 46 and Vernicia's 44 in the first round, and 81 votes against End's 75 votes in the final round.<ref>https://www.democracycraft.net/threads/presidential-elections-february-2025.24616/#post-96499</ref>

==== Lawsuit and Emergency Injunction ====
On the 11th of February, 2025, the third-place candidate, Vernicia, filed a lawsuit in the Supreme Court against the Commonwealth (and its agent, the Department of State), claiming that "[t]he election was botched", and that the results of the election did "not represent the will of the people", due to the claim that the proper election format had not taken place. The claim was that the voting system used for the election, [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instant-runoff_voting instant runoff], was illegitimate, and that a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-round_system two-round system] should have been used instead.<ref name="Vernicia v. CoR SCR 3 [2025]">https://www.democracycraft.net/threads/scr-3-2025-vernicia-v-the-commonwealth-of-redmont.24771/</ref>

Vernicia's attorneys petitioned the courts to grant an emergency injunction, blocking 1950's ascendancy to the Presidency, and to rerun the election under the two-round system. The courts granted an alternate emergency injunction, wherein the outgoing administration of then-President [[lcn]] would remain in caretaker mode for the remainder of the case. The Department of State was also ordered to begin a runoff election between 1950 and End, as if the two-round system had been used, and only the two highest-rated candidates remained.

Mere hours before the runoff election was scheduled to begin, and after much deliberation and debate,<ref>https://www.democracycraft.net/threads/scr-3-2025-vernicia-v-the-commonwealth-of-redmont.24771/#post-96815</ref><ref>https://www.democracycraft.net/threads/scr-3-2025-vernicia-v-the-commonwealth-of-redmont.24771/#:~:text=As%20the%20memes%20in%20the%20%23legal%20section%20of%20the%20discord%20humorously%20points%20out</ref> the Supreme Court ruled that the election was in fact held legally and constitutionally, that "1950minecrafter ha[d] the full democratic mandate" to be President, and that the Supreme Court had made a mistake in its earlier decision to grant an emergency injunction.

The case was dismissed, and 1950 ascended to the Presidency shortly afterwards.

== Presidency ==
The newly-elected President 1950 took office on the 15th of February 2025, however, due to the disruption caused by the lawsuit, the caretaker government, and the planned then cancelled runoff election, his formal inauguration only took place the following week, on the 22nd of February.<ref>https://discord.com/channels/673612908868927498/686158870435201035/1342830572564643982</ref>

== Professional Career ==
Earlier in his career, 1950 was a Building Inspector, a Contractor, and a Photographer for the Hamilton Times. The timeframe for these jobs is unknown.<ref name="fd">https://democracycraft.fandom.com/wiki/1950minecrafter</ref>

== Personal Life ==
1950 is the son of [[pugbandit]] and [[HugeBob]]. He later married [[Ansgard_Ist]] making him a part of the [[McCartnon family]]. The two of them have two sons, [[Flailyy]] and [[GameSkipper]].<ref name="fd"/>
