Wow, guys. Some random dude no one cares about is beating the man who won the Civil War. I suppose we've got to keep up our trend of no party winning multiple elections in a row since 1904.

Meh, it keeps things interesting if the right wins sometimes.

This result will be a beaut' to explain.

You underestimate me, Mr. Supersonic. It was a tragedy for the Farmers-Laborers that the core of their party happened to be concentrated in the South and therefore was unable to vote in most of the Confederate states (except Arkansas and Texas, where the Army was able to quickly set up a functioning military government), effectively handing the election to the Northern Unionists, who suffered no such losses. It is also a tragedy that the left remains so divided - we've had that god-damned BMP around for far too long for certain people's tastes!

The Bull-Moose Party is actually doing quite well, so I don't think you can really argue for their elimination quite yet Sad
