With everyone hard at work, the final number of members by the time the elections were held surpassed five million. The nominations didn't increase by too much – the most enthusiastic people had filed their nominations early anyway.
To Mana's surprise, there was only one nomination for the post of the Treasurer – it was the shy student who had interacted with them the most on the first day, and thereafter had been an important part of their discussions. Later, Vanilla told her that since Mana had publicly said that she would support this student, when he filed his nomination for the position of the Treasurer, no one else did so, since word of Mana's support had already been spread amidst the fan community.
Mana didn't know whether to be shocked or amused or amazed.
Thankfully, there were more than enough candidates for sub-treasurers for each region.
The brochure idea was pretty good, and thanks to Fox, the election ran smoothly.
