Department leaders would log credit increases on a White House discord channel, the Executive would then review this and adjust someone's credit accordingly. Credit would be stored on the discord. Government Credit Awards Ceremonies could be held with all government department members/leaders invited and where the department with the most credit for that month are announced and ceremoniously congratulated, along with the top three people with the highest gains in credit for that month, as well as the top person with most credit gained in each department. Could be an award in each department for the player with the best performance for that month (eg, for VPD it could be an award for the most arrests, most bank/gas robberies stopped. For DOD it could be the most trainings attended, etc).

In the final round, several fradulant votes were found, resulting in two further recounts which removed fraudulant votes on both sides. It ended up in being too close to call and there being a high amount of fraud, for the first time in Vinish history a '''third round of the Presidential Election''' was held. But this time, the round was held on the Vindex respublica website. This allowed eliminated all forms of fraud.
Before a third round had been announced, Michael J. Barclay proposed the formation of Vindex's first coalition government in light of how close the third count of the second round was. He proposed the following to Tyler:
[[File:Second Round Count 3 June 2022 Presidential Election Results.png|thumb|Second Round Count 3 June 2022 Presidential Election Results]]
''"I propose the formation of a coalition government, with myself serving as President the first month and a half, and you serving as President the following month and a half. We would enter negotiations now over the details of a legally binding agreement we would both have to stick to. We can agree to a mixed cabinet as we already share many of the same cabinet members. Part of the agreement could be something I was already going to introduce, but under this coalition government it would be legally binding. All major decisions would have to go through for cabinet approval OR with approval from both you and I, and then if we disagree it’s held to cabinet vote. In the agreement would also be banning us from bribing cabinet in these votes, to keep things fair. This is not because I don’t think I can’t win the runoff if one is held, I actually think a government like this could be something Vindex needs considering how divided the electorate is, it’d allow for something we have both been advocating - decisions based on the consultation of the people. How better to do that than a coalition government which everyone voted for."''
The proposition did not have time to solidify as Emperor Silversmith held a runoff third round election anyway:
