I was undecided whether to run for re-election as Governor or to run for the Senate in August.  I decided to run for Governor, but now I'm undecided again.

If I run for Governor, I plan to keep trying to make our Region more active, (in which I consider myself partially successful,) and amend or completely replace our Constitution (I'd still push for this as a Citizen, but not as much.)

If I run for Senate, I'll run a serious campaign for fun.  What I mean is, I'll try to make Atlasia enjoyable again and I won't be representing my real life views, just pushing as hard as possible for a "Party" atmosphere Wink

Whatever you decide to run for, you will do well for Atlasia.

The descriptions of what you'd do in both cases have made it impossible for me to choose. Frankly you can't go wrong either way Smiley

Oh, no, I’m definitely going to stay in the Midwest, the question was where you, (the person taking the poll,) are from.  Sorry for not making that clear.

I can't really decide.  On one hand, I really don't want yet another unopposed Senate run.  On the other hand, you've done a good job as governor so far and I'd rather not have a good chance of losing. Cheesy

Oh.  Whoops. Tongue

Seeing as the Midwest is the least active of the regions, and you're one of the most active governors, I think you're a good fit to keep the region going well.

 If you choose one, you could use it as a stepping stone for President in October.  As for August, possibly try finding out who's running.  Jump in the race with the (percieved) weaker candidate.

Well, he'd be running against either me or NOTA, although the latter can be quite the bastard... Tongue

I should know Angry

Except, we don't have NOTA in the Midwest, and there are no write-ins accepted (in exchange, the deadline for announcements is 24 hours before the election), so he'd be running against no one Wink

If you somehow manage to take down somebody as powerful as the President Pro Tempore of the Senate...well hell, South Dakota and Arizona are in D5 so I guess it is tradition to! Wink

Most presently proposed maps would separate Nebraska and Utah, so he might not have to challenge Gabu, but probably one of the other incumbents.
