[ooc: Open to everyone and anyone! I know I have a million threads but what's one more when it's something like elections?]
America is set up in the middle of the university's main quad. He's got a table set up with a laptop where you can vote for your student council president online. All around the table, there are his infamous "VOTE FOR AMERICA FOR STUDENT COUNCIL PRESIDENT" posters that everyone has no doubt seen in excess this past week leading up to the election. He also has red, white, and blue balloons and tiny American flags set up on the table.
Plus, he has a megaphone. It's an industrial megaphone. It can be heard from up to half a mile away, at least, so almost everyone on campus can probably hear him and wonder who the hell is making so much racket.
'VOTE FOR ME, AMERICA!" he's yelling into the megaphone. "VOTE AMERICA FOR NO HOMEWORK, MORE VENDING MACHINES ON CAMPUS, PIZZA AT EVERY STUDENT COUNCIL MEETING, BETTER CAFETERIA FOOD, MORE FREEDOMS, AND A HEROIC BRAND OF LEADERSHIP!"
His passion is very evident, and despite how ridiculous some of the above sounds, he's totally serious and dedicated to having each of these things happen. That's his responsibility as an elected official!

Adriaan, who was interrupted AGAIN during one of his peaceful strolls, was NOT PLEASED with the racket coming from the quad. Seriously, he could not walk through this campus without hearing unnecessary shouting. Naturally, he had to go find the source and complain about it.
Not to mention, this whole election nonsense was getting annoying. He was never one for politics.
When he came across America, he huffed, "Oh, please. A country that outlaws marijuana, prostitution, and gay marriage can never advertise 'more freedoms.'"

Her arms folded over her chest, Belle stood among the small crowd America was pestering to vote for him, giving the blond haired maniac a small, amused shake of her head as she watched others scowl and frown in annoyance, most seemingly there to try and convince him to shut the hell up already.
She herself had some time to kill before this big dance that was supposed to go down tonight. There was a rumor that elections would go on nearly all night and the winner would be announced during the dance itself. She wouldn't have been surprised if Alfred intended on spending most of his night out here rallying for votes. Good thing she didn't have the money for his auction, a date that couldn't be around to BE a date wouldn't be a date at all. Hopefully whoever won had a little more tolerance for that than she did.

When America saw the big burly hunk of man that was the Netherlands, he almost felt inferior in comparison. But that was before Adriaan opened his mouth.
"MORE MORAL FREEDOMS!" he amended through the megaphone. He turned to the Netherlands and lowered the megaphone and was about to argue further with him before he spotted Belle a few feet away.
To her, he smiled and waved and rose the megaphone up again to yell for her "VOTE FOR ME!!" He accompanied this with a hero's thumb's up.
