@@IllustratetoEducate Absolutely, a lot of times you see creators putting their fans off to the side or ignoring them. It's always nice to see the creator responding to fans and even create videos that fans request.

Fun fact: states determine their own governments, but the US Constitution guarantees that all states will have a republican form of government.

[@IllustratetoEducate]

So interesting! Where are you when I’m writing my scripts? Haha but seriously.

[@lukeporras1288]

Yep. States can do just about anything they want with their system of government. As long as it is vaguely “republican” in nature the federal Constitution doesn’t care. A state could adopt a parliamentary system if they so choose. They could have an executive council instead of a governor or they could even have no head executive office. There is also no reason why a governor has to be called a governor. If a state wanted to, they could be called a president, chancellor, premier, or whatever they want really.

Nearly all of them!

I would love to see your next video taking about the vampyers,witches and pangas party.

[@IllustratetoEducate]

That can’t be a real thing, is it?

[@Multiverseproduction777]

@@IllustratetoEducate oh yes the vampyers, witches and pangas party was formed by a guy named Jonathan Sharkey but he ran as a Republican in 2012. It would be interesting to learn more this party and it’s background.

I have a question what if a Democrat senator resigned in a red state with gop governor?

[@lukeporras1288]

That would be up to the governor. Usually it is very unpopular for a governor to replace a senator with someone from the opposite party. So it’s likely that the GOP governor would choose a Democrat to avoid public backlash. However the GOP governor could just as easily choose a Republican to replace the Democrat senator until the next election.
