Perhaps it was a mistranslation, or Terran parliamentary procedure varied widely from that of Nihaton... well, that was pretty likely, actually, given that the Secretary-General had no beer mug before him.
"Mr. Secretary-General, my apologies for the clarification; if the question is 'Who shall be seated to represent Hobrazia,' Darnussia reiterates its vote of neither. If, however, the question is 'Which of these two honorable gentleman shall be seated in Hobrazia's chair,' Darnussia abstains. We respectfully consider the question premature."
OOC: To clarify, the vote up is to -who- to seat from Hobrazia. As the S.G. it is not my power to seat one of the Ambassadors. All I can do is point out that there are two contending ambassadors from Hobrazia and kick it to the Security Council for a vote and resolution, as it stands still waiting on votes. Good RP so far from everyone, I must say and I appreciate the cooperation as this will set the tone and pace and settle the issue allowing the Security Council to move onto why it was convened in the first place.
OOC2: No problem Rumbold, though did you vote-that's all I care about right this second heh. The S.G. will get the ball rolling (hopefully) once the issue of the dual-ambassadors is squared away and of course as an Ambassador your comments are on the record and will be no doubt be brought up at the pertinent time.
