Oakvale would probably win, even though the Internet would be tearing his candidacy to bits.

Oak/oak. While I'd be uneasy about having Lief near power, I think oakvale would be a competent national executive.

The running mates on both tickets would cause voters to consider other options.

I disagree on Oakvale on this particular issue, but he is by far the best choice in such matchup.

Although Oak would start with a huge lead the public would get tired of his campaigning being just him complaining about how everything is awful and dumb. Then with Lief's gaffes, people would start to see the ticket as too elitist, and dangerous having lief anywhere near power should something happen to Oak.

Turn out ends up incredibly low with ~ 50,000 voters, the millions of others just giving up on Democracy altogether.  Snowden landslide



Weeks after the election the military industrial complex fearing loss of power works with high ranking generals and initiates a coup which overthrows the Republic and installs Oakvale and Leif as dictatorial heads of state. In the ensuing civil war the inevitably follows many flee to Canada or Mexico after the Great Oakenlief Genocide of libertarians, rich people, and perceived moderate heroes. After years of bloodshed peace is finally restored when foreign powers intervene and depose of the dictatorship.

Oakvale/Oakvale

Sorry guys, as much as I disagree with Oak and Lief on this issue, politically I'm still closer to them than I am Snowden, an actual libertarian (which I'd never support in a million years)

I fear Jbrase's scenario is by far the most accurate.

Oakvale and Lief should campaign on "We're the REAL libertarians" ticket.

I enjoyed Jbrase's utopian tale very much.
