United States Political RP (OOC SIGNUP)

[Paketo]

Senator Free would be glad to help swing North Carolina his way. he is the popular up and coming senator with most of his support coming from the middle class families

[Arlenton]

Ok who is McCall, and who is Buswell.

I am McCall, Republican Texas Senator.

[Democratic Peoples republic of Kelvinsi]

Vermont is basically Washington DC no.2 right now for the Democrats

[Brutii Rebels]

Buswell is moderate/liberal
Hes anti gun control. Supports deregulation for small businesses. But hes pro-choice, pro-gay marriage, etc. He gots enough qualities to swing some conservative independents towards him, and with the support of Munsen hes got the liberal vote

[Brutii Rebels]

Vermont is basically Washington DC no.2 right now for the Democrats

Vermonts never flipping from blue. Well honestly if Bernie ran in real life Im almost certain he would win the state, even as an independent

Yes! I wish Bernie would run, though for an entirely different reason than his liberal supporters.

[Democratic Peoples republic of Kelvinsi]

My character is former Democrat now independent. His ratings are through the roof, he is aggressively anti Republican though.

[Arlenton]

I can see McCall doing something like this.

This is my prediction for the Presidential Election.

[The Enclave Government]

You guys don't give Revan enough credit in Florida.

He was a longtime State-House Representative and for a few years, the Florida House of Reps Speaker of the House. He's a Cuban-American, so he'll have access to the crucial hispanic vote.

[The Enclave Government]

Who, if anyone, is Buswell running with?

[Democratic Peoples republic of Kelvinsi]

What about the federalist party?

[Pantorrum]

Even if your candidate beats McCall (Cough cough...not happening...cough cough), you will lose any hope of taking any swing states like Ohio (because Ulmen won't support you, it looks bad for his re-election as a representative) and Virginia.

[The Enclave Government]

What about the federalist party?

People aren't taking into account the Federalist voters. It's been a faction IC for about 10 years, and we're known as the most successful third party in history ( we've elected around 5 Senators during one session).

The Federalist Party is good at coalescing the moderates to elect a Presidential ticket, it completely sucks at House elections, but does good in Senatorial elections. We've been looking to elect a Federalist governor in one of our bigger support states, like Florida.

[Democratic Peoples republic of Kelvinsi]

I am currently thinking about which Democrat I should officially endorse Buswell or Clark.

I'm quite aware of that. Revan is going to use this as a stepping stone. Forcing a House vote would be groundbreaking historically. Alot of people would re-think their alignments if they saw what a third party could do. It's like the Tea Party, but instead of going batshit insanely conservative, we appeal to the moderates and successful for more then one election.

Buswell seems good.

Who is he running with?

[The Starlight]

May I suggest that all presidential hopefuls and candidates post their platforms here, in the OOC, so we all don't have to ask questions? Make sure you include all the controversial topics, like the environment, foreign policy, immigration, gay marriage, abortion, healthcare and such.

[Democratic Peoples republic of Kelvinsi]

My character is not running so not my problem.

Yes, I would though in IC McCall hasn't announced yet.

[Democratic Peoples republic of Kelvinsi]

My character is strong in New England, whatever Democrat he endorses will almost be guaranteed Vermont, and be at a significant advantage in the rest of New England, seeing as no other New England governors are players.

Still, it's only a matter of time. So if you're planning on doing it, please do.

[The Enclave Government]

It should also be noted the Federalist platform really appeals to Moderate Christian Denominations. I'd say about half of the listed would be likely Federalists.

Mainline/Moderate denominations

The Association of Religion Data Archives considers these denominations to be mainline/moderate:
