A short, rotund man bustled through the confusion of the Forum, and then the Assembly, to reach Rutilius Lupus, Marcus Aemilius Corvus' man in the Assembly. Silently, he handed the young pleb a note, and then rushed off again, saving his words for the multitude of crowds. The note simply read:

~~~~~
Lex Galla Flaminia Dies Distinctus Pro Ludi - AYE

Lex Flaminia Galla Colligo Ludus - NAY

Lex Fictitia Tribunate - AYE

Lex Agrippae Suburae Conservum Platea - NAY

Lex Fictitia Officium Aediles - AYE
~~~~~

Rutilius quickly set to work, mustering the voting force of Corvus. It used to be so much simpler!
