WINNER: COOKIE MONSTER Puppet Politics Election 2024

[flexmaster33]

Kermit the Frog has taken the first two Super States -- California and Texas -- to build a sizeable lead in the Muppets race, but still time for the others to catch up.

The Sesame race remains a tight one with Bert & Ernie holding a slight lead, while Cookie Monster has won the most states so far.

[flexmaster33]

Sent out maps for the for Pennsylvania which is the 5th of our 6 super states ... we will also have Ohio going out soon, which is the largest state among the regular phase.

[flexmaster33]

Sorry for the delay on the maps...coloring them in is my favorite part of this tourney. Anyway, the maps for both parties are updated now, so check it out

[flexmaster33]

Also a note for Sesame players...Cookie Monster & Count von Count have a player (IcePick) on vacation, so there is a back-log of sorts on his games. I will be setting those up over the weekend.

[flexmaster33]

Also a heads up, I'm on vacation this coming week, so sending out the next batch of states tonight, but don't expect to see updates until I get back most likely.

It's a DisneyLand vacation for those who are curious

Thanks again for such a well run tournament

Back adding up states (still in progress), but through 26 states on the Sesame Street side we've got Bert & Ernie in a dead heat with Cookie Monster and Count von Count at 754 delegates apiece.

This is after odeuminus took Wisconsin for campaign Cookie Monster

Wild.

Busy 4th of July night at work, so didn't get all the way updated. But close. New batch of states going out tomorrow.

[flexmaster33]

Overdue update on the campaign teams to reflect some of the changes that have taken place.

We are heading down the stretch so time to make your move to claim your party's nomination.

[flexmaster33]

New batch of states sent out, and also sent the start of our last super state -- New York.

Now's the time to make your move!!!

[flexmaster33]

Still a good amount of delegates up for grabs, but looks like Kermit the Frog/Scooter and Cookie Monster/Count von Count are our front-runners as we close in on the General Election.

[flexmaster33]

Just sent out invites to the final states of the primaries, so the last votes are coming in and we should have our official nominees soon for the general election phase.

Good luck, all

[IcePack]

Thanks again for all the great work on it

Is it possible to get a chart just for fun on which got most popular vote on 1vs1 vs the 4 standards? Like a top 10 for both game types

[flexmaster33]

The primaries are finished ... great timing, right after the final party convention concluded in real time.

And we have Kermit the Frog and Scooter going up against Cookie Monster and Count von Count for the Puppet Presidency.

Good luck to both parties. Initial maps will be going out late tonight starting on the East Coast and working our way west across the time zones.

For everyone else, thanks for playing in the tournament.
Look for one of these each election cycle

[flexmaster33]

The early votes are coming in...but no states claimed as of yet.

[flexmaster33]

We've got the first three states in the books.
And just sent out invites to a pair of Super States out of New England...big points up for grabs in New York and New Jersey. Good luck

[flexmaster33]

Closest state early in the race has been Maine where Cookie Monster took it by less than 1,500 votes.

[flexmaster33]

I'll update the graphic on Monday, but through 4 states it's Kermit the Frog 15, Cookie Monster 11. Early returns are promising a tight race.

[flexmaster33]

Two more Super States in play with voting booths in North Carolina and Pennsylvania now open.

[flexmaster33]

Super close race through the New England states ... 8.5M total votes and we have only a 25K difference in the popular vote.

[flexmaster33]

Cookie Monster is about 1/4 million votes ahead in the popular vote with most of New England counted.
So far it's a split race through 8 states gone final.

It’s been a fun series thanks for such good work hosting it

[flexmaster33]

Cookie Monster and Count Von Count are turning the East Coast blue with a series of convincing wins that included clean sweeps through Maryland and North Carolina. Cookie Monster also claimed a big 28 electoral votes out of New York -- the most for a state so far.

We'll see if Kermit the Frog can rally in the swamps of the South.
