- Better election night. Bringing back the 2008-style one would be good enough for me, with states actually being projected and the returns coming in at a better pace. Also perhaps add election night coverage for the primaries.

- Voter demographics and being able to target them. Exit polling could be added too.

- More detailed debates; being able to choose whether to respond to a question forcefully/jokingly/calmly etc.

- Multiple polling organizations. I assume the poll numbers are intended to be an RCP-style average but seeing more than one pollster would be fun.

- Approval ratings (for incumbent Presidents) and favorables.

- Being able to actually serve as President. This is probably too far-fetched and would require a re-marketing of the game.

How about Wisconsin not being a safe R state in the 2016 scenario. I played a game as Trump and purposefully lost by 2008 style margins and Trump still won WI. It just kills the realism for me.

Well, I'd like to "see" President Forever/Infinity 2016 in the first place, but I don't have $20. Sad

I spacebarred through as Stein and turned off my percentages. I won Mass., and then Hillary won Texas and OK. Carson won Maryland, and even was within grasping of DC (56-40-4)
