Has the world gone mad? Another tie. VP, take it away...


"Let's take this back to the basics, people. In the event of a tie, the chick is usually in charge. In the event that the tie is between two chicks, or two people that may or may not be chicks, a (possible) chick with a hat surpasses a (possible) chick without. Consequently, the hatted possible chick on the Far Left is in charge."
