It might. It's just more press on my char's effectiveness as governor at fighting crime and turning the state around.

My candidate never said he would, in the press release. That was only a Politico speculation, which has a left wing bias as it is.

Sweet. I'm guessing Bobby being 55 is of legal age


So for you, you will need to get signatures of 0.1% of the voting age population in each state to be on the ballot. As long as none of the other ops disagree that is.

Okay. As I'm a Trumpesque character I imagine that's possible.

Yep, and I plan to use that as much as possible. TV ads on every station, massive advertising in rural America, all that good stuff. And I since there's no other Reform Party members, I plan to invite any politicians that want to debate to my mansion for a super debate.

It was legal and effective. Cant stress that enough.

And why they are "angry" now, and not years ago when it occurred.

It also has been done in Chicago on many occasions in recent years, and without question.

Heck, DC tried to do it in '93.

There was a lot of blowback when they did it, and that was on a very limited scale, for a very brief period of time.
