least electable atlasian? (other than opebo)

[Хahar 🤔]

Me!

Me!

And we are all very thankful of that. The kind of america that'd elect you is one where I'd have left decades ago to escape socialist economics and massive social control done in the name of trying to turn America into a socialist 'utopia'.

I'm just a social democrat.

Xahar.  Socialist Muslims just cannot win, anywhere.

He's a Muslim? I thought he was 13-year old Asian kid?

He is, but he's also Muslim.

Ouch. Three strikes and he's out.

Yup, I'm out.

Interesting thread.

Anyway, as Eraserhead pointed out, it ain't me. I'm a devout Christian whose views are more moderate than my rhetoric. I could easily get elected in my congressional district, something most Atlasians couldn't do. And "Extreme Views" is the only one on DWTL's checklist where I fit.

The answer is actually Joe Republic. Simply because anyone else in a party could get elected in a hardcore partisan district.

SPC?

Joe could easily win a local election.

If Jesse Ventura could be governor of a state, Gporter can at least win something small.  Also, I can't think of a place in America that you can get elected.

Well, I could probably easily be elected mayor of my town in the future, I'll almost certainly get the nomination at some point.  Posting on a forum for fun does not equal real life.  That's another important thing to consider when thinking who is the least electable person.

if your beliefs were to be made known on a scale the size of your prospective constituency, you wouldn't stand a chance.

I have to agree with DWTL on this point. In local elections, one's ideology is rarely the driving factor. Winning at that level is usually a combination of community contact, willingness to meet a wide variety of people, and perhaps a tie to a specific hot-button issue in the community. This is a frequent winning combination for school boards and municipal councils especially since they are often non-partisan elections.

Well, out here the winner seems to be whoever can put up the most yard signs.

Well, out here the winner seems to be whoever can put up the most yard signs.

If that were the case around here, we'd see New Jersey go for Ron Paul and "Jersey Joe" Pennacchio!

Not for elections of that scale, of course.

Probably me.  I'm an atheist, which is worse than a gay or a Muslim, if current polls are correct...

Nothing special about that.
