Okay, so for the new election, "All Active Members (except those LOST in the 21st century) are eligible".
So, I made two lists, one with the "active members" interpreted very literally, excluding the recently resigned Star Boy and Comet Queen, and one with those two plus Bouncing Boy and Duplicate Damsel thrown in.
Let's see how close we can get to the actual results!

Are we supposed to vote twice? Once for each question?
As with the last election, I voted for Phantom Girl and will be doing so by mail to DC. She seems like a natural choice, as one of the oldest historical members who has never been leader in any boot. She has always been portrayed as a solid professional and team player. The personality that Levitz gave her in Secret Origins and the zero issue suggests that she would have a lot of good will and affection from her teammates.
Go Tinya!

Yeah, the theory is that you vote on each list, and will presumably vote for the same person on each list, unless you prefer one of the four added names on the second list.
After posting it I thought I should've made a list adding in the Lost Legionnaires as well, just to see how that would go.

I wish the Legion Lost team had been included. Then I might have voted for Timber Wolf, Tyroc or Dawnstar. All of them might have fostered interesting storylines.

As usual, I voted for who could use some more panel time. Lightning Lass and Duplicate Damsel for me.
Maybe Luornu becoming Leader would produce a story on how her powers changed?
Cham is on the list, but no Colossal Boy or Night Girl?

Colossal Boy is not currently active, but with Starfleet or something. Night Girl is an instructor at the Academy at the moment, so I guess she could've been included on the second list with Lu and Chuck, but she hasn't been seen much lately, so...

Interestingly, for once we have fairly clear leaders on the polls.

Wow, after all my Phantom Girl boosting last election, I feel dirty for not voting for her this election!
Still, my heart is fickle, and this week, it's Ayla.

Me too! Lu would be a great leader. She could accompany every away team and take charge of all of them at once.

I'm very curious as to whether or not all of the Lu's are mentally connected, like a single entity.
She was portrayed in the recent Adventure run as finishing her own sentences, and with multiple selves standing in the same pose and moving simultaneously, which very much suggests that she *is* present in all of her duplicates, at the same time, and that they don't have to talk to each other, or pass on information when they recombine (like Marvels Multiple Man).
If that's the case, then she could literally be on every team *and know instantly what's going on with every other team.* That could be very cool, and also make for some challenges for the writer, since any team with a Lu on it would know what was going on halfway around the galaxy (or at headquarters, where there's yet another Lu on 'monitor duty.').
Of course, if she's got some sort of range limit (can't maintain a dupe that gets more than 100 yards, or a couple thousand miles, or a light-second away from her, for instance), that would be a built in limitation on Lu being all over the place, keeping everyone in real-time communication.
Makes me wonder if UP faster than light interstellar communications aren't built using tech designed around or inspired by Carggite neural tissue, able to maintain a real-time connection between greatly separated 'selves.' That would be funky, to find out that every long-range UP communications device (including the Flight Rings) has a few cloned Carggite brain cells built into it!

I voted for Mon-el again. I've always voted for Mon-el, all the way back to the old days, because I feel he has great character and leadership potential, but writers will shy away from him. Forcing him into the spotlight should create a great oppourtunity, but Paul hasn't really seized that oppourtunity having spent the first half of his term writing himself out of a plot corner and the second half hasn't really had a lot of great leadership moments. I want to see Mon the leader actually leading the charge into an epic battle, so I'm giving him a second chance to get it right.

Seems that all the fans are punishing Shadow Lass for sleeping with Earth Man. Zero votes... I vote for Tinya and Luornu, both deserve be the leader.

I voted for Shady over Tinya in the 1st poll because I feel she is not as likeable as she once was due to the Mon-el/Earth Man story, maybe Paul could fix that with her in the spotlight.
In the 2nd poll I voted for Lu as I did last year because Her power would be perfect for Leader of the Legion!

So, if there were an overwhelming number of votes sent in for Lu, they'd have to count them, wouldn't they?
