'''Hanging Chat Vote Ballot'''
 
This vote ballot with a hanging chad still attached reminds you of the episode you refer to as
 
'''Noble Intentions'''
 
You had run into John Houston, a Praetorian refugee who had made a career for himself as a reporter at WSPDR of Cap au Diable. When you found him in Independence Port, he was desperate for help. Desperate enough to hire you on to locate a source of his who had been captured by the Warriors.
 
John's source turned out to be another Praetorian refugee, a woman called 'Tunnel Rat'. The warriors had grabbed her since they believed she had information on someone called 'Alexander the Great', one of their former members. Alexander Pavlidis was going into politics, and Tunnel Rat had learned that he was getting in with some bad bedfellows from Striga called the Port Noble Citizens Brigade. John Houston put you on retainer and asked you to head to Striga to interview the locals.
 
Talking to some Striga personalities you learned that the citizens brigade was just a front for the Council, laying low after their volcano lair was all but destroyed by the New Praetorians and the US navy. The Council were running some kind of operation out of a warehouse in the docks and recent visits by Archon Burkholder meant that it had to be something big. John informed you that another Praetorian was involved, a Dr. Arvin.
 
Inside the warehouse you found a secret laboratory where Dr. Arvin and Archon Burkholder were involved in a couple of big operations. Project 'Hanging Chad' - a plot to influence elections with compromised voting machines, and Project 'Predatore' which turned out to be a new type of supersoldier serum derived from the same concoction that empowered Marauder during the Praetorian war. Your investigation was interrupted by some local heroes: Dr. Todd and Ravenstorm of the Striga Sentinels. They were prepared to arrest you on sight but you convinced them that the threat of a new supersoldier prototype was great enough that you should join forces. The prototype was a beast of a fighter but in the end you prevailed, and earned the grudging respect of the heroes.
 
Back in Paragon City, John informed you that Alexander Pavlidis had just been attacked at his final pre-election rally, and the Warriors were holding him hostage. John couldn't let the main actor in his big scoop get killed before he could be exposed, so you dared the chaos of the riots that had engulfed Talos Island to recover the man.
 
Come the big day of the election, John had no more work for you, so you took it upon yourself to find the Council's vote fraud headquarters. Dr. Todd of Striga helped you track it down to a new base in Boomtown, and she and Ravenstorm joined you to bring an end to the Council's plans, and to save democracy. With Dr. Arvin arrested and the voter fraud exposed, Alexander Pavlidis' campaign crashed and burned. Alexander held one last press conference to proclaim his innocence and that he had been the target of the Council's vote tampering without his knowledge or approval. He declared that he was not going to run in the re-election, but was 'going back to the streets' to deal with the evil ways of David 'Odysseus' Hill in a hands-on fashion.
