And by the way did anyone else notice DWTL said meeted rather than met?

He is probably dyslexic and shouldn't be made fun of, or he just types really fast and should be more cautious. Yes, he makes a lot of typos but it's still very easy to understand what he is saying, unlike certain Jewish Conservatives.

Pacific Lt. Gov. Race Surprisingly Competitive
by South Park Conservative

   A recent NWA poll shows that the race for Pacific Lt. Governor is much tighter than one would expect. Despite the Jesus Christ Party dominating the region, Ebowed only has 50% of the vote in the poll. Competitor Alexander Hamilton has 33% and 17% are Undecided. To be fair, there will likely be a large amount of zombies come election day to help Ebowed. If turnout is lower than expected, then Alexander Hamilton has great potential for an upset.

Actually we are tied. Just like to clarify.

Hamilton is the first member of the RPP to ever mount a run for office in the Pacific region.

Stop lying.

The only negative reaction seemed to come from released released from prison and a mental institution and perennial election loser Xahar, who claim that since he could not win the Pacific no one could.

Ah, which institution?

LNF HQ. At least I think it's a mental institution. Everyone in there is INSANE.

Great read. I noticed as well that the SDP seemed to sort of "take over" the JCP in a way.

How would you rate more racist than Stark candidate Sewer Socialist's chances? He's getting a lot of preferences from JCP members and LNF members.

I know polling indicates as much, but can you really rate the Pacific Lt. Governor race a tossup. I have a feeling bgwah can rally more JCP members to vote on a bad day than the RPP has in the region.

Not when every poll shows a tie.

I thought it was pretty clear "That's all I can say" is what he meant there. It's really not hard to understand Max.

His point is the JCP routinely under-polls.

Oh Okay I couldn't tell if he was trying to say that or agree with me.

SDP has many candidates for office in December
by South Park Conservative

In the Pacific, MaxQue has declared his candidacy for Governor against CultureKing, and Morakai Blue has declared his candidacy for the vacant Lt. Governorship. I don't expect much success for MaxQue in the heavily JCP Pacific, but due to the lack of a Lt. Governor, Morakai Blue could pull an upset with a lack of likely JCP candidates.

Turnout was really low, and the electorate is different now. In fact about half of the people voting against you would vote FOR me.

Hamilton, realistically there are maybe 7 votes for you in the Pacific and that is being on the more generous side. There are easily twice that many JCP votes I would say. Polling doesn't take into account about two-thirds of those voters.

Trust me, I love the effort and thing the under-dog spirit is great, but the NWA can't realistically call the race a tossup. "Leans JCP" would be the minimum rating.

You're a true joker. There's no way I get less than seven votes with expected turnout.

Whether you get 7 or 10, you can't beat 20. We will see if I am surprised, but label me a skeptic until a see it with my own eyes.

20 total is the highest turn out I've ever seen on records. This race is a toss-up in the truest sense as it all comes down to turn out. There is no clear favorite, as no one knows who is actually going to show up.

1)Franzl
2)Fritz
3)Marokai
4)SPC
5)Afleitch

This is assuming people in the RPP have half a brain and vote for someone capable over someone who in my mind at least has never proven themself.  Not meant to be a slight againest Rowan or the RPP, I just have'nt seen anything really on Rowan's policy and I'm worried about the RPP's machine politics.

I haven't heard any kind of machine politics.

Let's be serious here. You can't rant and rave against the JCP machine and not recognize your own party's machine organization. Blind support for your party may convince them to push for your candidacy, but it likely won't win you many elections.

Well certainly not in a national sense. Of course they must have machine politics in the Dirty South, which I am not too familiar with. I mean Duke just basically said "f it, I'm going to run" and started a campaign with one week left. That's not very machine-like.

The habit of voting as a block with members picking and choosing how they vote will go versus how the DA goes about it as lettting members make the choices themselves.

Well Vepres isn't voting for RB I don't think and maybe Duke isn't. I'm not sure but I don't think "the machine" would be letting people pref afleitch but some of us are. No one will tell me how to vote.

As far as I can tell from what was said by SPC, Duke was asked to run as the RPP was considering running a third candidate. Perhaps you were not kept in the loop, but the people pulling the strings in the RPP have run it like a machine, sometimes better oiled than others.

Also, while some of the more active and independent RPP members will be voting as they wish, you can bet mass PMs will be sent to RPP zombie voters with a specific ballot to post. Just as the JCP likely does.

On a side not to SPC, the Senate race is more likely 2 JCP Hold, 1 RPP Takeover, 1 DA Hold and 1 Tossup.

You don't think DWTL himself would've ran if we were going for a third? He outperformed Duke in their respective special elections. Also, you'd think they would be giving me this "ballot list" as I'm new for the most part and haven't even voted before.

Actually, I just suggested that we run a write-in candidate, and Duke volunteered.

But you were okay with running a third candidate. It didn't shock you and DWTL and force you to reconsider the numbers scheme. It was carefully planned. Hamilton seems to think Duke decided to buck the party and run the campaign as a maverick, which you would agree is not the case.

It really wasn't carefully planned at all. It was just thrown together one day. The numbers weren't even being decided yet(on who votes for whom, etc.)

There was more planning than Hamilton believes there to be. You also would say that the numbers are, at some point, decided. I'm not detracting from this strategy. The JCP uses them too. I'm just trying to let Hamilton know that just because he doesn't see it, doesn't mean it isn't there.

Of course the numbers are decided at some point. If not, there's no way we could guarantee getting at least two members in.

Wait a minute.  You guys actually sit down and DECIDE who votes for who?  And then tell the members who they are supposed to vote for?

To my knowledge, the JCP does not employ this strategy.  Yes, PMs are sent, but thats not quite the same thing.

No one has told, nor will tell, me who to vote for.

I'm flattered people think I'm going to be elected, but I take nothing for granted.

It would, unfortunately, take a miracle to remove you from the Senate chamber based on the numbers.

You underestimate my ability to alienate dozens of people. Tongue

I think you might get some RPP votes.

Doubtful first preference. Just as it is unlikely that any of the RPP candidates will get top preference from a JCP member. Marokai will likely get 4th or 5th preference votes in the RPP, but in this election 1st and 2nd preferences are all that really matter.

Of course, I've been surprised before.

Yes I was referring to 4th and 5th prefs.
