I'd like to see a Pilar (D) vs Valmont (R) rematch. If only for the irony.

Also note, with an integrity of 5, I will refuse to research scandals on my opponents, and I won't run attack ads on their Leadership, Integrity, nor Experience, nor their positions on abortion and same sex marriage. Attack ads on other policy platforms, especially economic policies (including health and education) are fine.

Feel free to run me in any primary or general campaigns.

I forgot to do primary maps, but Valmont (Fezzy) swept the GOP nomination without difficulty; the Democrats, however, are deadlocked three ways.  Entering the Convention, here are the totals:

L'Hermine (Hashemite): 1330 delegates
Constine: 1321 delegates
Moore (HappyWarrior): 1185 delegates

L'Hermine eventually gained the majority of the delegates, and selected Moore as his running mate.

Polls on Election Day:

Valmont: 327
L'Hermine: 109
Tossup: 102

Election Results:

Valmont: 55.3% (64,760,528) PV, 405 EV
L'Hermine: 44.7% (52,398,538) PV, 133 EV
Baldwin: 0.0% (36,275) PV, 0 EV

You only gave yourself $3,000,000, an Established of 2, and a relatively low PIP number.  That probably has to do with it.
