If they are already on the elder council, which means that each province represented. What is the thing with Stormcloaks? Possibly because High King is handpicked by the Empire for a long time. However, does the statement of Dengier of Stunh is really true? That Emperor too far away to know of issues of Skyrim? I am sure that all the provincial representetives of elder council have all the oportunities in the world to pressent their province's issues for discussion. However, it could be just like an old Russian saying. "It's too high to reach a God and too far to reach a Tsar." Even if Russian people belived that Tsar trully cared about his people, they belived that there always was too many formalities to actually meet him. Or the fact that he surrounded by bad people, who won't let him know of people's suffering.

I am sorry Wikia contributor, as far as I go, I often present examples from Russian or world history, which may or may not directly related to discussion. I forget sometimes that my knowledge is not a common knowledge. I am Russian, living in USA, who happened to be a historian in spirit (I would be by trade, if I was able to get my Bachelor's degree from college). So basically I am a self proclaimed historian that likes to share his knowledge. I cannot say for the other person, but I have the feeling, it's a similar to my case. I am sorry for any missunderstandings, or inconviniences.
