McCann Wins No. 2 Leadership Post

Kalnier senator 'delighted' to serve alongside Jay Burns

MAVOCKE--Kalnier Sen. Shannon McCann has won the Conservative Party's Assistant Minority Leader post in the Senate.

McCann won in the fifth round of counting, beating out Sen. Jared Lanman of Remmington, who previously held the post, as well as fellow Sens. Dana Glow (Armana), Alyssa Jones (Damoign), Kelsey Frascanio (Trinton), Nadine Pietrasaelis (New Portsmouth) and Independent Sen. Niles Gilcrest (Veroche), who caucuses with the Conservative Party.

She will serve alongside Deschire Sen. Jay Burns, who earlier this week was elected Minority Leader by his Conservative peers.

"I'm delighted to serve with Jay Burns and to serve the people of this country as Assistant Minority Leader," McCann said in a statement given to the NPF. "My desire is to help bring about change in any way I can, and I feel this position will allow me to be a stronger voice in the Senate for all Grassadellians."

The identity of McCann's NAT counterpart, the Assistant Majority Leader, is unknown right now, as the party has not elected its leader. However, on Friday, Lial Sen. John Morandi was elected Majority Leader by Nationalist senators, as well as two Democratic-Reformists and one Independent senator, whom have all formed a coalition.

With the recent formation of the majority NAT-DR-Independent coalition, the balance of power in the Senate now stands at 49 to 46.
