Nathan Earlywine

General

• Perplex City Council member
• Believes defense budget "provides more than municipal defence"
• In favor of expensive upgrades to Ng General Hospital

• Encouraged opening the Old Silver Mines as historic educational centers
  • Stated the mines will not produce large volumes of silver again, but are good for students to see the process
• In favour of open-air discussions, and delivering tax breaks to "early-life renters"

Election Trail

• 20-OCT-05 - Earlywine's run for the Leader position as suddenly stymied by Douglass Finlay, who announced he would be tossing his hat in the ring.
  • However, Finlay's campaign became smeared with a spying scandal over July 2006. He was eventually arrested for his mis-deeds.

• 17-JUL-06 - First of many City Council Electoral Debates
  • Earlywine was widely regarded as coming out on top of the competition.
  • Earlywine made a proposal to significantly reduce the array of instruments included onboard the AQSYS aircraft over a period of years.
  • As the lightweight craft age out of use, Earlywine's plan would see them replaced with the scaled-back versions. This would save the city a projected PCL37 million per year.

• 25-AUG-06 - When Finlay was arrested for influence peddling, invasion of privacy, and illegally acquiring unfair and unethical information to influence an electoral race, Earlywine expressed disgust at his loss of character, saying "Those who would seek a council seat should hold themselves to only the highest moral and intellectual standards."

• 28-AUG-06 - took the opportunity of a massive power outage to point fingers at the Academy, who truly had nothing to do with the blackout.
  • This was largely in response to an explanation from Academy Master Sente Kiteway.

Scott, Earlywine Even in Polls Recent polls indicate that sitting Council Leader Camryn Scott and Council Member Nathan Earlywine, both candidates for the Council Leader post, are now running neck-and-neck in public opinion following popular candidate Douglass Finlay's exit from the race. The poll also shows fellow candidate Shannon Powell trailing with a scant 2% of the vote, and a full 18% of those polled remained undecided. Sentinel, news in brief, 11-SEP-06

• 14-SEP-06 - Once again made a direct assault on Camryn Scott in one his standard get-to-know-the-masses open air propaganda machines. Nothing new was stated. Hot button rhetoric in a three ring circus. The crowd seemed to like it, anyway.

• Is appalled by the Academy/Mind Candy adaptation of the classic game Stone Chase, stating the Academy should be focusing all efforts on recovering The Receda Cube, and not building absurd games.
