NPC Elections - Rules and Results Thread

[Lumine]

Three hours left.

There's been quite a lot of campaigning in the final hours, and though I'm handling the mourning process "well" it's obviously going to be impossible to have results tomorrow. Will let you all know when they'll be likely to arrive.

[KoopaDaQuick 🇵🇸]

On behalf of our TX-Gov nominee, the Peace Party will drop out of said state's gubernatorial race and instead focus on the legislative contests. Our endorsement for that race will go to the Labor nominee.

[Dr. MB]

The Labor party endorses the Peace candidate for governor of Missouri and urges all its voters to vote Peace

[The world will shine with light in our nightmare]

My condolences to you and your family at this time, Lumine. Take all the time you need to heal.

[Continential]

The Liberal Party will drop out and urge it's supporters to support Peace in Missouri for Governor

[Poirot]

The Liberal Party will drop out and urge it's supporters to support Peace in Missouri for Governor

No we don't. We are standing.

15 minutes left.

[OBD]

Looking forward to making county maps for this election.

Should be a fun time.

[Lumine]

Right, campaigning is over (and thank god for that)

I'll do my best to review all the material, but results are likely to come out after Election Day in the US.

My condolences to you and your family at this time, Lumine. Take all the time you need to heal.

Thank you, Scott! That means a lot.

[Lumine]

Clarification: Campaigning for the November set of elections will only start on November 9th, which gives me a week to calculate October results while still allowing three weeks for the upcoming campaign.

[KoopaDaQuick 🇵🇸]

Are you gonna do favorite son calculations before or after the new census?

[Lumine]

Heads up, I'm grading right now in order to calculate results. Will take a while, but results will be out during the night.

Are you gonna do favorite son calculations before or after the new census?

Unsure of what you mean, could you clarify the question?

[KoopaDaQuick 🇵🇸]

Nevermind, I was tired as heck when I asked that question lmaoo

THANK YOU TEXAS!

[OBD]

Thanks for the results! That said, there appear to be errors in the Kentucky count, fyi.

[Lumine]

Thanks for the results! That said, there appear to be errors in the Kentucky count, fyi.

It should be corrected now.

[Lumine]

Also, I'll be introducing at least one new rule for November - also considering a ballot measure idea that was brought to my attention, but that one may be for December - regarding last minute campaigning.

By my count there were 60 different events on the last possible day, which I think is problematic for a number of reasons - leaves people unable to respond if one goes negative, may be a bit too unrealistic in terms of how much ground some people cover, etc. -. Will let you know the precise mechanism on Monday when November campaigning starts, but there will be at least an experimental measure in place.

There will also be a post mortem to clarify a number of interesting situations that took place, but no ETA for that one yet.

[OBD]

Btw, a county map is in the works. Should be finished soonish.

[KoopaDaQuick 🇵🇸]

Just wanna ask, is it okay if we give our candidates unofficial names? Partly because it's fun, and partly because it's much more natural to say the candidate's name instead of "the Peace candidate for Governor of Delaware."

Sure! Although it doesn't have a practical effect, I do think it's both harmless and fun for roleplaying purposes.

Proud to present the new Atlasian NPC elections county map! It's now fully updated for this month's NPC elections (though I might attempt a Vermont precinct map, which could affect the accuracy of the county map).

Here's some tidbits of #analysis:
- Utah, Wyoming, and Montana are all LABOR LANDSLIDES. That said, the degree of landslide varies by state - in Utah, the more urbanized areas are stronger for Labor (thanks to Mormon support for Labor governance). Wyoming generally follows OTL lines. Lastly, Labor is strongest in West Montana, and ultimately cedes some strength to Federalists in East Montana. The Liberals generally have their performance masked behind Labor wins, but they do pull out a win in one Montana county.
- Missouri is fun. The rural north and south form the Federalist base here, but the Peace-Labor coalition holds strong in the cities and ancestrally Labor areas and makes inroads in the Federalist-leaning suburbs of Kansas City. The DA picks off a few rural counties on the Missouri River Runner's path.
- Kentucky is a strong Federalist performance, with the party of orange coming close to 50% statewide thanks to strong performances in the west and south, and a surprising plurality win in Louisville. The DA actually outperformed Labor here, and managed to win Lexington narrowly while performing well in the Cincy burbs. Labor, meanwhile, held Federalist numbers below 50% in Appalachia, while winning Elliot County with a near-majority.
- Texas is interesting. Labor ultimately won the election on the back of a strong Latino vote, running the table in the Rio Grande Valley amid record turnout. Labor also maintained historic strength in East Texas and the three major cities, while making inroads in the suburbs (though ultimately, Labor strength in Austin far outweighed it's support in Houston, Dallas, and San Antonio). The Federalists, meanwhile, could count on a strong (but not hyperpolarized) performance in the rurals, Hill Country, and the Dallas suburbs. The DA, overall, performed better in suburban areas, but managed to pick up Loving County due to a visit from prominent DAer Weatherboy.
- New Jersey is affected by New York being a Federalist/DA stronghold in this universe - North Jersey is very strong for the DA, who win the non-Newark/Jersey City suburban counties. Ultimately, their strong performance here lifts them to a second-place showing. Labor, meanwhile, shows strength primarily in South Jersey, in addition to islands of support from the working-class Newark areas. The Federalists are relegated to a third-place finish, but still finish strong in the state's historically conservative areas.
- Vermont: I might do more analysis here later if/when a precinct map is finished, but for now the state is generally a north-south divide between Liberals and Federalists.

EDIT:

By popular demand, I've made a precinct map for Vermont (this was surprisingly manageable). Labor and DA had pockets of support in southern Vermont and outer Burlington/Montpelier, respectively. Otherwise, the Federalists performed stronger in the north, sweeping the northeastern counties, while the Liberals did best in the towns (winning central Burlington with outright majorities) and the South.
