Oliver Slauson

Oliver Konrad Slauson (born May 3, 3575) is Rutanian politician who currently serves as the President of Rutania. Slauson first entered into politics as a member of the Kragusrov Legislature, representing the Huygens West constituency before replacing Van Hermann as Governor. Slauson would go on to serve in the position a second time before becoming President.

=Early Life= Slauson was born in a middle class family in Huygens. His mother and his father both owned a motorcycle shop which sold and repaired motorcycles as well as bikes and mopeds. He started working at the shop at 14 and by the time he was 17, was able to fix motorcycles. Slauson attended Lake Meinzar College, attaining his M.S. in Accounting in 3599 and three months later, became a CPA after passing the exam.

He along with 3 other friends wanted to open a motorcycle shop, but was unsuccessful in doing so. The bank refused to lend him the money citing the lack of a "detailed business plan". Oddly enough, Slauson would soon gain employment as the accountant of the same bank which turned him down.

=Kragusrov Legislature= Slauson was captain of his high school's debate team and got involved in politics at the urging of parents. He won election in 3601 to the Kragusrov Legislature, representing the district he grew up in. Slauson served on the the Appropriations Committee, which he later chaired in his second term and as Chairman of the Haylen County Delegation.

Following his reelection in 3605, Slauson became his party's go to person on all things dealing with taxes and tax law and would achieve his biggest victory; the lowering of property taxes. His achievement would lead him to become Van Hermann's unofficial advisor while he was serving as Governor at the time. Slauson became interested in running for Governor in November 3608 and would announce his intention to run on February 2, 3608. Slauson won a plurality in the party's primary in July, carrying 15 of the 22 counties, for a total of 43.5% of the vote.
