A post-election audit conducted by central authority figures has identified irregularities in the Promitor election. While the seizure of planetary government and transfer of treasury funds was deemed to fall within the established rules and procedures, the creation and use of inactive voting accounts for the purpose of influencing electoral outcomes was determined to be in violation of system regulations. A total of 55 accounts were identified and removed following the review.
Revised vote totals reflecting the removal of these accounts significantly alters the outcome of the election. A chart provided by auditors showcasing the changes is listed below.
