UPDATE 10-29-17: Fixed minor parties which were still using primaries
I disabled primaries. I tried fixing them using a popular primary vote but kept getting crashes, even when going back to an electoral system. Sorry, hopefully the bug-handling improves in later versions
UPDATE 10-22-17:
- Added more independent candidates, such as the “Lower Property Taxes” party.
- Modified the region vote percentages for more realism (combined results from 2013, 2009, and 2005 county results
- Fixed issues: Removed some that don’t apply and adjusted some federal issues like budget
UPDATE 6-11-17:
- Updated with primary election winners: Lt. Gov. Gim Guadagno (R) and Phil Murphy (D)
- Added Libertarian, Green Party and Constitution Party nominees
- Updated electoral vote (Huntington-Hill with 225 seats using “Wyoming Rule”)
- Updated region percentages (30% NJ13, 35% POTUS16, 35% Senate14)
- Added issues: NJEA (Teacher Union) & Bridgegate
- Just for fun – added Andrew Wilkow from Sirius XM as an independent candidate 🙂
Excellent scenario you made there!
As a request you should do one for Virginia, since they are having gubernatorial elections next year (yes, I do live in Virginia, in case you are wondering why) 🙂
I have a request for Missouri and California
Wow, a lot of requests! I live in Washington and lived in NJ for over 30 years, so I’m familiar with the names and issues. Sure technically I could do other states, but I won’t have the insight and would just be copying information.
I’ll also add that I’m updating this and the Washington states, as well as my 2020 campaign and another upcoming project I’m working on, so I don’t think I can do more states at this time. If you could send me a list of candidates, news outlets, etc. I can consider it though.
Is there any possibility that you could do NJ’s 3rd Congressional Race? I know it’s a big ask but since you said you lived in NJ for awhile, I thought it would be cool to see an insight into a congressional race.
