May 2020 Elections in the GeoFS Council for Peaceful Intervention

From 29 April 2020 until 4 May 2020 elections were held in the GeoFS Council for Peaceful intervention. The election mainly focused around the revival of the council and the future of MRP. The presumptive nominee for chairman is SpaceRage, who was a former chairman himself and has been very active in the council.

Background
The state of military roleplay (MRP) had taken a decidedly downward trend. It was overpopulated with air forces at the same time that activity was plummeting. In response to this, the MRP Revival Coalition was founded. The GCPI threw their support behind the coalition early in its existence and many of the candidates were involved in the group.

OmegA, the chairman, was elected to the position on 2 December 2019. Per GCPI mandate, terms last for 6 months and there are no term limits. OmegA has been one of the most respected and active chairmen of the GCPI.

Timeline
On 29 April 2020, OmegA announced that his term was up and that "Applications for candidates will start tomorrow." On 30 April applications began. Utopia, Armageddon, Zoozoo, Maverick, and SpaceRage all applied as candidates. OmegA announced his reelection campaign. The first round of voting, on 2 May, resulted in SpaceRage, Zoozoo, and OmegA winning by far the majority of votes with only a few votes going to the other three candidates. On 3 May, the second round of voting started between SpaceRage and Zoozoo. The vote is expected to favor SpaceRage.
