Reporter’s Scheme leads to Judicial Showdown, Justices uphold recall, new Governor elected

A young reporter at the Daily Planet was in cahoots with Governor Schwimmer by providing documentation to keep him in power. Reasons behind this alliance are still unclear. In a press conference last Monday, Governor Schwimmer cited Article 8 Part I Section 5 of the state constitution which states the Governor cannot be removed within the first 6 months of his administration.

Schwimmer v. State of Arizona concerns the constitutionality of a governor recall. Despite Justice Jeric’s statement, “If we do not follow the constitution, branches can do whatever they want,” Court Justices Ang, John and Jeric rewrote the constitution saying the recall will remain.

As the recall was upheld, three candidates emerged: Kentavius, Meg and Eric (Lopez). Meg said about her platform, “My goal is to form the lottery.” The candidate even stated she, “won’t veto [a bill] as long as 40% – 50% is allotted to education.”

Attorney General Kentavius said in his campaign address, “Leadership has been missing for quite some time in this state” emphasizing the recent record and that he “understands our feelings of being let down.”

In referring to Government Schwimmer’s bout with a lottery created to fund welfare instead of education, the Attorney General said, “In the end you deserve the truth, you deserve to know how money is being spent.”

The Attorney General’s speech dramatically emphasized putting your vote to use, that “education is the key to our future,” lowering taxes across the board and creating jobs. His speech ended with a standing ovation.

Eric’s (Lopez) platform was a productive state government where he “will set real agenda with consensus building republicans and democrats.”

Overwhelming, Attorney General Kentavius was elected. The newly elected Governor Swanson expressed his gratitude to those who elected him and promised, “You guys will be my boss.”

  1. no one rewrote the const. the Justices stayed true to the COnst. but they had to bring reality into play and change the time schedule and relate months to weeks
