Seat Of Office - Now a level 3.
- Final hit damage reduced 300/200 > 200/100
While Seat of office was really cool, nobody was going to see it because it was a level 5.

Spoiled Ballot - No longer cancels into Boundary Shift
Spoiled Ballot xx Boundary Shift was a fucking stupid combo. Cool, but stupid. Spoiled Ballot should be an ender.

Airtight Argument - Still a level 2 (Okay hear me out)
- Looping hitbox damage reduced 10/5 > 5/2
- Final hit damage reduced 200/100 > 150/75
- Nanomachine Gain reduced 100 > 50
- Final hitbox no longer sends straight up, now sends away from center with greater DI influence.
- No longer as Knockdown Extends Hitstun set, preventing it from just giving enough + frames to always grant absurd combos. Now it leaves Senator +10 with large knockback.
Airtight Argument's original intention was to be a get off me tool. This should hopefully bring it back to that point.

Confidence Vote - Now has a DI modifier of 0.33 instead of 0.
- No longer hits aerial opponents
This means at low DI it still combos into tough influence but shouldn't be as abusable in longer OTG setups.
It no longer hitting aerial now means that in theory more characters should be able to use jumping attacks to get over it.

Gerrymandering - Explosion now hits 10 frames later, but the explosion radius is way taller
- Startup reduced by 1 frame (it actually wasn't starting in line with the animation)
- Senator now finishes the animation 8 frames faster
If you want to escape it you should be forced to escape it on the ground, allowing Senator to chase. That being said it was creating an unblockable oki setup.
The animation ending sooner should also mean a little more usability in neutral too.

The maximum and minimum distance of the Tough Ballot forward movement has been decreased (I'll see how that goes for now, I don't have the time on my lunch break to replace it with an 8 Way)
Tough Ballot's startup has been increased by 2 frames and its hitbox shortened slightly vertically, this means that in neutral - despite it being able to hit air opponents - it can still be comfortably jumped over. In oki and frame advantage situations though it can be turned into a anti jump trap.
Run-Off Tough Ballot's startup has been decreased to 7 frames (between Ballot and Tough Ballot) to accomodate for the Run Off Startup a little bit and hopefully make it have a little more use as it's the only grab option from Run-Off.

To accommodate for Tough Ballot's nerf, Confidence Vote has had its hitstun increased by 2 frames so it still combos into Tough Ballot

Update: 17 Jul, 2023 @ 12:06pm

Added a new move based on feedback - CONFIDENCE VOTE - a "Pull your opponent towards you" type move to help confirm into Tough Ballot.
You can now select the distance of Tough Ballot. This change is to help its general usability.
Some SFX have been tweaked.
Some VFX have been tweaked.

Fixed a fun little bug where he was making the entire game crash <3

Update: 16 Jul, 2023 @ 12:15pm

He now has Sound Effects!

Update: 16 Jul, 2023 @ 6:34am

Added new moves - Approval Plummet, Audit Trail
Added new VFX to a few moves
Fixed an issue where hitting Senator with a move more powerful than his remaining armour still counted as him armouring through the attack.
Other minor bug fixes

Update: 15 Jul, 2023 @ 12:41pm

Added One Party Ballot, a new Nanomachine Cash-Out move from the Ballot chain grab
Removed Air OK Property from Absolute Majority
Drop Box now leaves opponent grounded for longer, to make OTG follow-ups easier.
Added particles to No Confidence to hopefully make it more clear that it's a stomp. It may need a resprite.
Improved some particle effects
Minor bug fixes and polish

Update: 15 Jul, 2023 @ 9:53am

A bunch of adjustments have been made to sourspot hitboxes, a lot of them were previously full-body, making some wonky clashes and others just felt unintuitive.
Boundary Line now hits enemies up more, leaving them in the air with Senator at a frame advantage
Boundary Fault has had changes to what it cancels from to make it a bit more obvious where it can be used
Senator now has 2 Free Cancels (this may change rather rapidly depending on testing)

Update: 15 Jul, 2023 @ 6:52am

It's time for his soft launch!
This update itself is largely one for bits of polish, removing a couple bits of placeholder art and rolling back my initial awful sound effects until I can make better ones

Update: 15 Jul, 2023 @ 3:40am

He now has icons!
Also I've nerfed Ballot a little bit and made Seat of Office a Level 5 so I can make it do even more damage

He also we have one new move! Tough Ballot!
Tough Ballot is a slower version of Ballot that also grants Nanomachines, with the added benefit of being usable from Run-Off
