10:23 pm, 29 September 5300
The atmosphere in the National Convention Centre was filled with anticipation and excitement as the counting and tabulation of votes for the historic elections continued. The computers of the Central Electoral Commission were receiving electronic transmissions from precincts across Tukarali, steadily updating the results. However, a sudden blackout plunged the convention centre into darkness, causing a momentary panic among the officials and tabulators.
As the power was restored and the tabulators resumed their work, a shocking discovery sent shockwaves through the room. It became evident that the results had been manipulated, skewing in favor of the Great Dictator, Sebastião Fontes Coelho. The realization sent a wave of disbelief and anger through the Chairperson of the Central Electoral Commission, Enrico Ximenes da Conceição.
Without hesitation, da Conceição contacted Coelho, informing him of the fraudulent manipulation of the results. In a firm and unwavering tone, he expressed his refusal to consent to such a crime against the will of the people. The conversation between the two was tense, as da Conceição made it clear that he would not allow the integrity of the electoral process to be compromised.
However, amidst their conversation, da Conceição received alarming news. Fifty tabulators, frustrated and angered by the manipulation they had uncovered, were walking out in protest. Their voices echoed through the convention centre as they chanted, "Coelho, madaya! Ang bayan, dapat lumaya!" (Coelho, cheater! The nation must be freed!) The words resonated with determination and a call for the liberation of the nation.
The dramatic turn of events spread like wildfire, catching the attention of reporters present from every major news outlet. Their cameras and microphones captured the unfolding situation, broadcasting it live to the nation. Social media platforms quickly became ablaze with discussions and hashtags surrounding the incident.
As the news spread, speculations arose. Could this be the catalyst for the People Power Revolution of 5300?
