Basically, this is a US Political RP in which you will roleplay a Senator or a Representative, possibly a governor, and maybe a candidate for President. It takes place in Washington D.C, hence the name. Upon your election you will have to draft and pass bills, whilst making sure to gain enough popularity in your chamber, and awaiting the next midterm elections, where the majority in senate and the House of Representatives can suddenly change. Apart from the parties (Republicans and democrats) and the places, the characters may not be real. No Trump or Sanders this time! Be creative instead!

Rules
What it takes for this RP to stay fun and not become a kind of battlefield (which is complicated when RP'ing RL politics, even with irreal people).
1- OP is God and the Co-OP's are demigods. What I and they say is to be taken for granted.
2- No RL characters Or at least no celebrities. That's no Donald Trump. I knew you were aching to play Trump, but that's no-no.
3- Good quality IC and Frequent posting preferred. Do not neglect real life affairs either, we know how to be tolerant, but know your IC success will be greatly determined by the quality of your IC posts and your motivation. Similarly, one-liners will have more of a hard time.
4- Respect your fellow players. It is become of them you are having fun. RP'ing alone is no fun, so don't forget that one.
5- To propose legislation, TG the Speaker Co-OP for your chamber. If none, TG me by default.
6- No godmod/flawless/perfect characters We hate perfect people. Don't let yourself be hateful.
7- If they're is anything you think would be a bad idea to do, even if it is not listed, don't do it. Ask OOC if you can, but don't go around meta-gaming in the IC and telling me it wasn't written you weren't allowed.
8- Have fun and be creative. If nothing creative and new pops out, we'll be bored...
