Posted on Tuesday, November 1, 2016

Hello!

We are almost to election day.  It seemed like Hillary might coast to victory, but the recent batch of emails may knock her out.  We've updated issues and introduced some new random events to reflect the world.  Read below for details!

Change Log

Issues Updates

Election Integrity (New)  Politicians on both sides are questioning the validity of election results, suspect either vote tampering or voter suppression.  This issue is especially important to Trump.  

Probing Hillary's Emails (updated) The FBI's eleventh-hour revelation of new emails has added to the campaign chaos and increasing awareness of this issue.    

New random events

Internet Revelations

Whether it was hackers or cyber-punks or just troublesome teens, someone has been breaking into emails and sharing  secrets with the world, causing an unneeded distraction at this critical stage in the campaign.  Reduces a candidate's credibility with voters.   

Foreign Interference

Foreign powers have developed a sudden interest in American democracy and seeing a specific candidate win.  This has raised questions about the integrity of our democracy.  This event reduces a candidate's ability to raise money; it also raises the importance of the "Nationalism" and of "Election Integrity" issues.  

Internal Party Revolt

Both political parties have rebels stirring in revolt against their candidate, questioning everything they do, said they'll do, or quietly bragged about doing.  Reduces a candidate's support across the board.
