Welcome to the 2016 Divided America Election Game!This election game play will go at a moderate pace, with debates, election updates, polling updates, etc.
This election game will also be co-run by my friend, Aaron Stemann. Together we will decide polling results, primary schedules, debate schedules, etc.
Official Gameplay will begin this Saturday, the 9th of March, 2019. Signups will be accepted by then, and will be chosen by the candidates below. Special cases will allow signups after that.
Original Characters can be allowed, but only if asked and confirmed by a Moderator, or Co-Moderator.
Schedules can be anything from a vague travel, to in depth daily ideas. Schedules will be on a time frame, and failure to not post them without an excuse can results in removal from the game.
We'll be using, DatGOTTho's Credit System, as it's a fantastic system.
Here are the costs for each endorsements:
Endorsement system: credits awarded at 1 per week for every 5% a candidate attains in the polls.
1 credit: "minor" endorsement: US House or state legislator
2 credits: former: Cabinet officials, Senators, Governors
3 credits: sitting Senators and Governors (sitting Cabinet officials will not endorse in the primaries)
Ads will be limited to one per week, but any media network or political organization is allowed to run ads for you, but is still limited to one per week per organization.
Here is the current Congress Balance of Power:
Senate: 61 R - 39 D
House: 267 R - 168 D

Also: A large scandal, in Early 2014, a corruption scandal came out between President Clinton and the DNC. She was caught assisting and leading the rigging of the DNC Leadership Ballot, to elect a candidate that would swear complete loyalty to her and back her up on anything. She was caught, but not impeached.
