Washington 2017: The U.S. Political RP [CLOSED] OOC Pt. XI

[Tallahassee News Station]

Well if you wan't that I'd suggest somewhere from California or the Hudson Valley.

we need more reps so go for it, we are already over represented with LGBTQ community so i wouldn't recommend that

as for location we could use democratic reps from Colorado, florida, georgia, kentucky, louisiana, Missouri, New Hampshire (i recommend this), Nevada, Ohio, and Texas

New Hampshire has only one Congressional seat and it went red in 16

Interested, one question, how would a powerful businessperson running for office work? What I had in mind was someone really rich and was the prime donor of his party in his state, in exchange for many questionable things of course

We do have a cap on net worth in the rp

What's the cap?

[Tallahassee News Station]

Leaning York or Maine; Massachusetts as a close third, Jersey as a distant fourth.

Mass and jersey already have too many people, maine is a bit crowded but a lot of them are inactive. From this list New York would be best, the senate race there is nuts so maybe run for governor?

Governor in NY doesn't sound like a bad idea for a Dem

There's like...five New Jersey characters split amongs three players afaik.

Really? I’ll see if OP or Co-OPs are willing to make an exception for my character, since if you’re trying to simulate Washington, you gotta have the rich corrupt businesspeople

No billionaires, hundreds millionaires only

The cap came in because we got way too many uber rich folks

Just 100 mil already makes you one of the richest people in Congress, so it's not really crippling

We try to advise not going out of the tens for realism, but the bil is the hard cap

I'll keep thinking hard on what I want to do, we'll see what happens.

If I'm feeling real ambitious might try to make two new characters. Again, we'll see what happens.

I'd definitely suggest going slower than that.

Ashe seems to be settling in well so far.

[Tallahassee News Station]

Now just need Orion or Tumblr to show

You're right, I'll have to choose one - NY Governor or a state Rep/another Senator - then maybe another couple months create a new person once #2 gets settled and developed

you misunderstand, we already have a NY governor a republican played by Orion. We are suggesting you could make a democratic rep and run against him in 2018

Final question, would a Libertarian Party governor make sense in South Dakota?

Di Pietro is my governor character. I need Kelvinsi and Xath to finish the healthcare conference.

Third party candidates winning gubernatorial elections is extremely difficult. We've already had one in the upper west that required a pretty twisting bio to make it feasible and it was of the Liberman style non nomination type. That guy has since switched to the GOP, the Libertarian party mostly burned out in the RP (There's a successor Liberty party trying to get its feet under it) so all things considered, not really an easy thing to pull off

Since no one else is around, I want to have Di Pietro negotiate with the Progressive leader.

I see quite a few Progressive Party governors, but anyways, can I have him be a former libertarian since switched to Liberty Party

Could be interesting.

Just a suggestion, if he’s so rich and powerful (And in this RP, a hundred millionaire would be considered rich and powerful, I assume), you could have him run as an independent

[Dentali]

Sure

considerign how long the negotiation has gone on can i take over for one of the parties involved to speed it up?

Elected as Dems but switched parties

The core part of it is really done, this just seems like poking at the corners

[Dentali]

Elected as Dems but switched parties

have any progs been elected as progs?
