Hi, welcome to our 2025 Guild Elections Coverage: If you’ve never been through a Guild election before, I suggest starting with GILD1001; it’ll explain all of your basic queries and get you set to vote! To get a better idea of who you’re voting for, read through the ‘Meet the Ticket’ articles, which let the groups speak about what they believe. And to verify if its true or trying too hard, read our Fact-Check article, which will shed some light on who’s making promises they can’t keep. Lastly, keep up with events as they happen; The Presidential debates are available in full as livestreams on the Pelican Youtube Channel, here for the main event, but we’ve recaps to keep you caught up, and further articles as the election progresses.
