I find it extremely unrealistic that Nancy and Michael Reagan would endorse different candidates. The chances, really, are slim to none. I have no clue whose was accepted first, but I think the person who requested one of them first should get to keep theirs, personally. So if you could clarify, ElectoralJew, which person asked for "their Reagan" first. If I was beat to it, I will be very willing to withdraw my Nancy Reagan endorsement, simply because I want this game to be as realistic as possible.

you got it first

[ej2mm15]

remember to request for March state polling, so far there are no requests

tomorrow is march

[ej2mm15]

Deleted it. Can I have Iowa's polling? And what's the nationwide polling?

tomorooowwww =]

[ej2mm15]

Will there be any debates between the candidates?

yeah, in june, september, and december.
Note- June is the deadline for personal requests for endorsements.

[ej2mm15]

I've decided to do march polling tonight instead, due to Brady's suspension.

[ej2mm15]

yougo1000 and I have agreed that I can use his character now that he has endorsed me, but that he will use his character too.

okay then

[ej2mm15]

April polling tomorrow
still no state requests

[ej2mm15]

Hm, despite the fact that Jindal endorses me, why did Cantor win just about as much support as I did from it? I went up 10%, while he went up 8%. You would think from the polling numbers Jindal endorsed both of us.

Conservative voters that don't want a women president. And alot of southerners

Cantor's a Representative.  When is the last time a Representative had a lead in the primaries.  Scott Brown is a national name, Sue Lowden will be once she beats Reid...I'm detecting some bias here to be honest.

Cantor is Speaker of the House in this alt. The speaker that won back the reublicans congress.

[ej2mm15]

BTW, it's nothing personal A-Bob, lol.

The Argument makes sense if you didn't know that Eric Cantor was Speaker of the House in this universe

true. You guys should read what he signed up as though first before you complain.

[ej2mm15]

I'm not complaining about that. I just think it's unfair and questionable that Cantor got just as much of a bump as Lowden did from Jindal endorsing Lowden.

you got a larger bump. You act like your twenty points behind.

Wow, I got a 10 point bump, he got an 8 point bump. I'd be fine with that if Jindal just dropped out. But he also endorsed me.

And remember that was just one straw poll. Straw Polls in this alt are more likely to favor the more conservative candidates. It wasn't an average of several polls.

Very well.
One last thing, though: Lowden is a conservative candidate

I know, but Cantor is known as a very conservative candidate. Lowden is not as deeply conservative.

Okay, fine. Brown and I will just have to fight through the bias that is taking place.

There is no bias... Just remember that you are fighting a popular Speaker of House. That's alot bigger than a regular representitive.

[ej2mm15]

I posted the average polling, Post-Jindal

[ej2mm15]

Average Polling Post-Jindal
Lowden 28%
Cantor 23%
Brown 20%
Not Sure 29%

Thank you

Don't base everything off of one poll. For example, there was a WV poll in 2008 that had Obama up by 8, and look what happened.

[ej2mm15]

And Polling map. Official May polling is out Thursday. I think we need the democrats to start getting more active.

[ej2mm15]

The democrats need to get more active. And you can still sign up.

[ej2mm15]

Remember to request for polling if you want it. May is on Thursday.

[ej2mm15]

tomorrow is june polling
still no requests or posts

[ej2mm15]

we need somebody to post in the gameplay thread.

[ej2mm15]

june polling is out.
remember it is never too late to sign up, and to request state polls for july

[ej2mm15]

How is that polling possible in Ohio? I was leading in the state and this month I'm in third and double digits down...I campaigned in Ohio

You went up two points in ohio since the last time I polled it. Lowden picked it up because she campaigned there too. Ohio is a three way anyway since the beginning. And you didn't go to Ohio between May and June polls.

[ej2mm15]

Before I post July Polling, make a state poll request if you want it.
