Parliament unanimously approved Webb for the position.

-==== Tenure as President (May 30, 2022-present) ====+Webb's long time [[civics:melonia:pm|Prime Minister]], JosephineMira, decided to resign from their role as PM on August 12, 2022 due to burnout from holding the position for so long. President Webb appointed [[officials:tz_scion|tz_scion]] to run with him to become the next Prime Minister. They won that election as well, and tz_scion held that position for several months. 
 + 
 +tz_scion decided to switch his party affiliation from the MRP to the [[parties:cbp|CalvinBall Party]] on February 1, 2023 after a disagreement with President Webb regarding some policies. This caused President Webb to choose a new Prime Ministerial candidate: [[officials:snhk|former M.P. SNHK]], a member of the MRP. However, on February 8, 2023, M.P. SNHK, during a live Speakership debate, attempted to assassinate tz_scion on stage. This led to President Webb changing his Prime Ministerial candidate once more, this time to [[civics:melonia:ministry:science|Minister of Science]] [[officials:awedball|awedball]], a member of the CalvinBall Party (CBP).  
 + 
 +tz_scion decided to run for President in the June 15, 2023 election. Rather than oppose Scion, who was a very popular figure in Melonia at this point in time, Webb instead decided to run for the position of Speaker of Parliament. Webb was elected as Speaker by an incredibly slim margin against former M.P. [[officials:legate|Legate]]. 
 + 
 +He was appointed to the position of Minister of State by President Scion and unanimously confirmed by Parliament on June 15, 2023. 
 + 
 +On September 23, 2023, Michael Webb decided to dissolve the Melonian Representative Party as M.P. cstro216 decided to leave the party. Webb would remain independent until October 1, 2023, where him and M.P. cstro decided to join the CalvinBall Party (CBP) due to contentions during the October 15, 2023 election.

 This support led at first to the renaming of all government positions to match the potential new government, which is why Webb is now titled "President" instead of Mayor. He then pushed for the [[civics:melonia:constitution|Constitution of the Republic of Melonia]] to be formed. This Constitution is over 24 pages long, which is why it took a couple of months for the Constitution to finally be ratified, on August 21, 2022, officially beginning the Republic of Melonia phase. This support led at first to the renaming of all government positions to match the potential new government, which is why Webb is now titled "President" instead of Mayor.
