The votes have been cast and counted, and the Blaseball gods have decided the fate of the league for Season 6 and beyond.

The election was anticipated by fans and players alike, but now that the results are out, let’s take a quick look at how everything shook out, and then discuss some of the ramifications of the latest bit of splorts democracy in action.

Wow! First of all, starting with the decree, this is sure to shake things up, as the most powerful teams are now all stuck together in a single division.

And while many will point to the Crabs gaining a lot in this election, don’t overlook the loss of the super-buffed Nagomi Mcdaniel. That will hurt Baltimore and really help the Jazz Hands. Just look at all those stars!

And finally … what a turn of events for the Dallas Steaks! After not receiving any blessings of note since Jessica Telephone was swapped away, they get a huge boost to their lineup, adding both August Sky (formerly of the Jazz Hands) and Conner Haley (beloved but not very good pitcher for the Steaks) to their already solid batch of hitters.
