We have a new president...


and his name is Luke Skywalker! That's right, in our house, President-elect Skywalker defeated Darth Vader in a landslide. Skywalker's sister, Princess Leia, will be joining him as VP, while C3PO and R2D2 make up the rest of his cabinet.
How did this come to be, you ask? While waiting in the car outside Mark's polling location, Max began asking me questions about voting, so I set up an election for him and let him vote. Once he'd elected his president, he had to appoint other leaders and there you have it. Our house is now ruled by the Republic. May the Force be with us.

Luke is young and inspiring, starting the Jedi training later than anyone had previously, but he is inexperienced. Darth Vader has the experience necessary to make sure your home is safe.
