If we are trying to help Men, I'm not sure we should get rid of Turgon.

He had a warm relationship with Hurin and Huor, and mercifully allowed them to return to their people. Had he not done this, the all-important Turin and Tuor would never have been born. That would really throw a wrench into the world. We need Turin and Tuor.

Say what you want about Turgon, but he was friendly to the race of Man. He even allowed a man to marry his only daughter without complaining, which is much more than you can say for Thingol, who tried to get Beren killed!

There is no way you should vote off Turgon before Elwe (Thingol).

I'm willing to accept Saeros as a compromise, but if you don't vote for Saeros certainly don't give Turgon the boot before Thingol.
