Conquer Club 2012 US Presidential Elections (completed)

[lostatlimbo]

I'm not sure I understand how the Independent candidacy works???

Basically all of the runner-ups from the Fundraising round of both parties are lumped into one Independent party for the Primary round.

Players in the Independent primary will play each other on their platforms to gain delegates.

If the winner of the Independent primary has more delegates than either the Democratic or Republican candidate, then it will be a 3 way race for the General Elections. Otherwise it will just be Dem v Rep.

I've updated the text for these sections to make this clearer (hopefully).

sounds good...I'd rather run as an independent, but (like in real life) that's a much tougher way to win office

[Victor Sullivan]

Thanks for the PM In!

Republican
USA Great Lakes
Space Defense
Free Speech

Victor Sullivan... A man with leadership, a man with charisma, a man with passion...

America doesn't need health care, America doesn't need war - America needs a leader to bring them out of this, well, depression!

I believe that America needs to focus on the future. With the impending end of the world, we can't expect to survive without the brilliant minds behind the defense technology at NASA.

I believe in the American people. The government has no business extending itself into every branch of society like these 'Socialists' seem to think. America should be able to have their freedom - of privacy, of speech!

America needs a leader... America needs a new President... America needs Victor Sullivan.

I am Victor Sullivan, and I approve this message.
