NPC Elections - Rules and Results Thread

[Lumine]

labor-pax agreement

1. The Labor Party and Peace Parties will enter into an electoral coalition ticket, with all legislative and gubernatorial nominees standing under the Labor-Peace ticket

2. The Peace Party shall be entitled select 20% of the legislative candidates on the Labor-Peace slate, and shall have a significant voice in selecting the gubernatorial candidates in addition to retaining the independent ability to select nominees in states with current Peace governors

3. This agreement shall be renewed every 3 months

x Koopa D. Quick

x Oregon Blue Dog, General Secretary of the Labor Party

Acknowledged, it will be reflected on the final results.

Can the Game Moderator confirm that Nick Saban, coach of the University of Alabama football team, does in fact support Labor?

No, parties may not claim NPC's supporting them. Mostly because it would become a serious headache - though we're speaking in hypothetical terms given the future of the office - as people insist that a certain person would support a given party (which is also why we're not using RL people as candidates, same principle).

When DeadPrez did it back on September - thankfully that was the month I kept more detailed notes - I didn't count the celebrities as part of his efforts. This is somewhat more problematic as the ad in question is fully based around the notion of a celebrity endorsement, but I'll allow editing/modifying the ad so the effort is not wasted.

(Kudos to Harvey Updyke for the creativity though, it's just that the use of RL people is inconvenient)

Also, roughly 28 hours left of campaigning.

[Adam Griffin]

I hereby claim all of the good celebrities for Liebor

One thing that does worry me that narratives will become confusing as we now have incumbency. We get a vague idea from the popularity ratings but without much in the way of updates on the states its impossible to really know what has actually caused the popularity ratings for each government. I feel like eventually we're just going to be making things up about what the governments have done in their term, and it could get toxic.

Yeah if NPCs continue this needs to be hashed out. It's possible to make vague claims about stuff governments have done (usually based on national/regional initiatives or COVID numbers), but that can get you attacked for not caring about local issues

Wait, so campaigning hasnt ended yet?

No, this one was extended to englobe Saturday to give more time to campaign (since it was only going to be two weeks).

Oh, I made a speech which was supposed to be at the end of the campaign already.

[Lumine]

It's over. My sincere and heartfelt thanks to all those who participated this month!

I'm writing like a maniac to catch up with my thesis - which is finally due in a few days - before I can deal with the backlog, so Monday night is the earliest date for results.

[Continential]

Will my ad and speech count as it came in like a couple minutes after the deadline.

[GM Team Member and Deputy PPT WB]

can we get one last "turnout reports in [x ] indicate [good/bad] result for [y] party"?

[Lumine]

With only a few hours until polls close across nine states - and one city -, reports suggest a higher turnout than in July in spite of cold temperatures across several potential battlegrounds.

[Lumine]

Marked the whole thing, only need to calculate seats now and formate the update (hoping to get this done by Wednesday evening). A close call aside, two states elected executives from different parties this month.

I'm gonna guess that New Hampshire and one of Colorado/Alabama/Maryland flipped. Let's see how accurate this is.

I think Colorado is the most likely 2nd flip but we'll see.

I think Alabama is. Labor likely stuck in 3rd causing another Georgia situation.

That's possible. Feds losing Alabama would be quite a shocking outcome, though.

[Joseph Cao]

My guess is NYC and Alabama flip (to the Liberals/DA and Labor/DA respectively).

Assuming NYC isn't counted for some reason (state vs. local office) it probably turns out to be Alabama and Virginia.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

I had hoped to jump back into this for the February cycle, but when the return to work full time in early February hit me like a ton of bricks, things got pushed back and by then I didn't feel I could effectively jump in late in the cycle without making a horrendous performance that would backfire.

It's all good, Mr. Chairman. We just want you physically well first.

Formatting and calculating this was a nightmare for several reasons (sorting out gains and losses while factoring Green defectors, choosing to give separate figures for the Labor-Pax pact, looking at the fate of the incumbents, etc.), so please let me know if there are mistakes.

Well, I was half right. Guess WB knew something I didn't about Alabama, lol

I thought it was so far out of reach that no one could snatch it from the Feds. But that's what I get for focusing exclusively on Labor polling health in these races, lmao

It probably would have been if the Feds got a better approval rating.
