Does anybody here remember the Election Simulation game "Election Day"? It was created by Professor John Gastil and was pretty basic.

Alas, it was mothballed a couple years ago.

Could never get it to work and apparently never will, RIP to another autism simulator.

Is the game still available online anywhere?

Sadly it isn't. Nobody cared enough to upload it elsewhere.

If I remember the name correctly, I also still have a copy on my computer. It can be a really enjoyable game.

The game was fun, it's just a shame it was so buggy. I was almost never able to go through an entire game without it crashing. I did like how you were able to play different types of elections (e.g. mayor) and work your way up from one elected office to another.

Never understood how to play it, or maybe it wasn't what I was looking for when I got it.

Yeah I used to play this game, but it was way to buggy to be enjoyable
