Senator Siege40 has been hitting the campaign trail across Atlasia trying to stir up support for tha Al/Siege ticket. Pundits haven't placed much hope on the Al/Siege ticket, and like in previous elections expect it to go down within the first few rounds.

Beginning his campaign in Fort Kent, ME, Senator Siege dashed across his home state down the I-95, making stops in Augusta, Portland and Boston. The Senator visited all of the northeastern captials and then did a mining-steel tour through Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Ohio. "It is time that the workers of Atlasia vote for their interests. Senator Al and myself are out here for the little guy, taking Atlasia back to the people who built it," said the Senator from district two.

Then the Senator began his, "Farms of Atlasia" tour, visiting small farming communities in Indiana, Illinois, and Iowa. He promised there to end farm subsidies for big corporations and put more emphasis on the small farmer. Many criticize this move as agricultural welfare, but even hesitant crowds in Indiana seemed reactive.

Finally, the Senator came to a stop in Lawrence, KS, the Senator's announced retirement spot. After finishing his speech the Senator was informed that there were no registered voters in Kansas.

Despite a disappointng end, the Senator announced that he and Senator Al would return to the campaign trail soon.
