It has been understood that we are to stop mentioning Mr. Charles Kolta as “ Mayor Candidate “. Shafted Engines is a separate business of the state and WE are hosting the raffle, therefore, Mr. Charles Kolta will have nothing to do with the winner of the raffle.
We, Shafted Engines, have already declared ourselves as partners and supporters of the campaign and it’s already been mentioned as such prior to the event being announced.
The event is also to highlight the mechanic job that currently has no salary and the current government should emphasize more on such matters.

Shafted Engines' reputation has been damage due to the violation being brought to public for unjustified reasons, and not in personal contact with the ones in interest in the first place.

If there’s a desire for the posters be torn down and re-done, please reach out and we will do so.
If this isn't taken back, we feel no need to provide any sort of service to a rather ungrateful front that fails to recognize our hard work and dedication, and this event is to be called off immediately.

Shafted Engines CEO & Managing Director,
Jinn Zhou

The above Notice of Violation has been rescinded due to the parties concerned complying with the ELECOM's requests in line with election law.

We thank you for your cooperation and look forward to your continued engagement in the electoral process.

In behalf of the Commission,

Hon. "Chairman" JDC
Chairperson, Elections Commission

The Vehicle Showcase & Raffle has been called off. It's with great disappointment that we come to announce you this. Despite our business advertising our event for a day now, Timothy Crouse held an interview right at the same exact time... Shafted also being present in the local boundaries, it seems like this interview (WITH BARELY ANY ATTENDANCE) was much more fit for the present time.



I, Jinn Zhou, would like to thank Mr. Kolta's Manifesto for giving us the chance to actively promote the mechanic duty, despite differences and miscommunication that showed up during the process.

This is not the last of it as we still look forward into hosting events, vehicle showcases, legally allowed races, product exhibition, test drives, tag team dragsters, and more, with prizes and Shafted Engines discounts included!

Best regards,
Jinn Zhou

We would like to personally apologize for the inconvenience, Mr. Zhou, but behalf of our entire campaign; thank you for your contributions to Fort Carson!

The lack of proper payment and general support of our mechanics in this town is outrageous. We plan on amending this unfortunate fact if our movement finally ends up winning the elections. Do note that your contributions to our beloved town are way evident for every one of us to not realize!

Yours truly,
Philip Byrne.
