After having made the rounds and consulting personally with the proponents of each measure up for a vote, Gallus finally made his way to the forefront to cast his votes...

* Lex Flaminia Galla Colligo Ludus: Aye

* Lex Fictitia Tribunate: Nay

* Lex Galla Flaminia Dies Distinctus Pro Ludi: Aye

* Lex Agrippae Suburae Conservum Platea: Aye

* Lex Fictitia Officium Aediles: Nay

Walking away from the balloting area, Gallus reviewed in his mind the conversations he had concluded prior to voting...

With Vitulus he discussed the very good last-minute point about the dates of the games being tied to religiious festivals. This measure would have to be coordinated with the Pontifex Maximus in the event that it passed; if it failed a future version would almost certainly have to be well-vetted ahead of time.

He had promised Agrippa his support, and had made good on his pledge. Pass or fail, the measure had stimulated debate on the subject of infrastructure maintenance, and the Aediles had been "put on notice," as it were, that they would be scrutinized in the future. Fictitious had certainly put some teeth into his proposal, and Gallus had no doubts but that future Aediles would most assuredly sit up and take notice. And if Matho's last-minute suggestions resurfaced in a lex of their own at some point...well there would be funds aplenty flowing into the urban infrastructure!

And then there was Fictitious and his proposal to restrict the Tribunes. Gallus had voted against it, of course, and after some very long discussions with Fictitious, the man knew exactly where Gallus stood with respect to his power to impose a veto.

As for the others...Gallus smiled to himself. Well, why not leave them guessing?
