Not just no Langford or Stesk. The only founding species member is Canada and he's just been elected by the Orion citizenry so she couldn't keep him out.
(Well him, Uhura and Mbeki but N'Gir didn't have a claw in selecting the Starfleet contingent either.)
Not an Andorian, Tellarite or Vulcan prominent enough to get name dropped. N'Gir really is pushing for the new members to stand forward.

@Briefvoice: Some remarks for shipbuilding (and indirectly deployment):
It seems reasonably likely by now that we won't need a recruitment drive for the Ambassadors, particularly if we pay for a double accession. Even without doing that we still have 2.25O 1.8E 4.25T spare for losses until we need to crew them, and if we happen to lose 2E dipping 0.2 below zero for a single quarter probably won't have any negative effect. If war or a similarly major crisis breaks out plans are going to be upended anyway. Not doing the recruitment drive would mean 2 more standard crew of each type. It also seems reasonable to assume continued academy expansions. We have been doing them every year since 2303 unless we were really short on pp and/or could get crew cheaper by doing additional diplomatic pushes instead, neither of these seems particularly likely.
We should consider moving one of the Constellation refits in Oreasa 2318 to UP-5 (which means going into refit a quarter before it can be replaced by a ship coming out of refit, but as we have a Renaissance and the Spirit becoming available that quarter it should be manageable), and the refit in 2319 moved somewhere else, perhaps provisionally to Intazzi (but it could be moved to a new berth ordered next year, or perhaps San Francisco and those Renaissances delayed by 6 months if that helps with crew/resources somewhere, perhaps because we have ordered an additional UP expansion). That would allow starting an extra Cargo ship in Oeasa next year.
Also it's not really in the current planning horizon, but you can assume Arsenal of Liberty to become available in 2322.

Fleet distribution with Alukk sector. Per request I've added information about homeworlds/major worlds in sector for your Event-generating analysis. Is this getting to be too much information/too complicated?
I did actually act on the information some. Looking at it, Sol Sector and Ferasa sector have the same number of event-generating planets so I push another ship in Sol. Curious what people think about two Excelsiors in the CBZ. Is there a sector that really needs the Spirit more?

Re: Spirit, when we get Mutual Support swap her into the SBZ with LOFC Berth 1 and sending the Rennie to the CBZ. About the same deterrence potential in the CBZ, but far more event potential in the SBZ.

@Briefvoice Why not put the Spirit in the SBZ and the Kumari in the CBZ? The SBZ had been pretty hot lately and we need to keep capitalizing on the Sydraxians so that we can push them to >100 relations.

Yes, I can move the Selaya there and start refit a quarter early since it won't kill Rigel Sector to be down to two ships for a single quarter. Have updated distro plan I just posted.
Yeesh, it's going to be a pain to put that into the Spreadsheet calculations.

Yaaaaay, go Orion!
Feels good, especially after all the work we've put into that corner of space.
I'd honestly wouldn't be so against Development if not for N'Gir. I personally hope that there's a break in the party and she gets sidelined in favor of different candidate. But I'd welcome the alternative of Seyek/Qloathi as well as original four elections gimping the D too.

A bit of a slap given the Expansionists & Pacifists were the ones that got the Orion intervention effort going. And specifically Stesk was instrumental in setting up the aid package to Celos. Though admittedly the Vulcans are less likely to be offended by political maneuvers like this I guess...
Is N'Gir just really confident of Development maintaining their big lead over all the other parties? Because that seems to me to be a misstep given the upcoming election for all 4 original members next year in Q2 (probably before any more accessions will happen).
I can see Humans flipping hard to the Expansionists given their old GBZ ambitions and with the Licori/Sydraxian threats neutralized. And Vulcans flipping their Development seat if they're still unhappy about the Licori War. Even the Tellarites might lose a seat or two to the Expansionists given their new long term goal on the MWCO.

Maybe even more as word of the riches in the GBZ and habitable worlds there filters back to the other members. I could see an expansionist campaigning on getting access to the GBZ

I honestly don't know if N'Gir is going to crash and burn at all; from outside perspective people probably think she's killing it. Well, as far as we know. She might be shitting the bed on domestic issues (does the Fed even handle that?).
Also, we're already at the Motarr II Administration as there will now be a need for a new Executive Director Justice:
Sierre needs no introduction, and Jona Ahara is new content.
Leila would be correct; y'all might also remember Tooph ye Holena was the Chief Admiralty Officer during Oyana's time:

I honestly want to see Federation press headlines ripping a strip off her for being the one acting like she's the one that made all the accessions happen, but comes from a party that worked really hard at slowing down Orion entry.
I don't think they will because none of this is particularly accurate -- her party slowed down all assessions, and technically speaking she is responsible for making sure Orion was first, which makes sense as they were ready to bring in the Orions even during the Celos Crisis:
Although, of course, as it was quiet it's possible the press doesn't know.
This is ignoring the fact she doesn't claim sole credit even in her emoji-laden tweets
