"Where've You Gone, General Washington?" - Participatory Election Series

[#CriminalizeSobriety]

Bump. Thanks Alfred.



Don't laugh too hard!

This is more or less what I envisioned the area of Babel would be - it's not quite as large as it's IRL counterpart Deseret, but in my mind I imagine there's much greater population density. I centered the westmost point around Promontory/The Great Salt Lake and moves east into what we know as Colorado.

Revisions/suggestions welcome, naturally.

I'll fix that ugly black line in 1876 and do write-ups in a bit.

1896:



This has been a blast to do, but I think I'm going to have to abdicate the responsibility in all honesty. It's become clear that I can't keep up a reasonable pace that keeps the series fun and engaging for everybody, and carrying on is kindof a disservice.

I'm still willing to help out in terms of candidates/ideas/maps, but the writing has left me a bit petered out. Sorry guys.

As I mentioned before, if you guys can just PM me links to each election I can do the states won/lost etc myself.
