One Vote

"One Vote" was the slogan of a mutiny on the Imperial warship Angelsword. Radical democrat faction rose up in response to another reduction of oxygen rations to the gun-loader quarters, demanding at least one vote on the ship council. The mutiny was successful, Captain was thrown out of the void lock and his officers were thrown into the reactors. One of the mutiniers, a former offficer himself, who came to be known as Akadan the Marauder, took command of the ship, renamed it into Hellsword and vowed to sail across the stars spreading the blight of democratic thought.

These news spread quickly among the oppressed of the Imperium and the slogan "One Vote" came to be interpreted not as the original call for "one vote on the ship's council!", but rather as "one vote for one man!". This slogan inspired political campaigns on Gradburg, Templos and Inaria. At the request of Adeptus Administratum, Inquisition investigated the movement and declared it to be not just mutinous, but borderline heretical and sanctioned executions of the movement leaders across the Arcadian Sub-Sector. Unfortunately this made them martyrs and only further put fuel into the flame, while Akadan the Marauder still remains at large, plotting the spread of democracy across the Imperium, by bullet or sword, if need be.
