Hi guys! I know that straw polls have a bit of a bum rap in the UK right now after they failed to predict GE2015 and Brexit - but just for fun I’d like to do one anyway! When you feel you’ve completed your election career, tell us who you’ve voted for and how much you’ve contributed to their tally, and I can make and maintain a google sheet so everyone can see how the forums voted!
Ganoidyn has pledged their support to the Jovial Contrarian - the Statesman of London! Ganoidyn has been fixing the election behind the scenes, and is contributing a full 20 election career and 7 notability [EDIT: 8 now!] to the Contrarian’s cause, whatever it may be.
Fronkstrog prefers a much more direct approach, and having just gotten enough Notability to be promoted to Murderer, is now contributing 20 + 2 [EDIT: 3 now!] as an Agitator for the cause of Sinning Jenny.[li] edited by ganoidyn on 7/10/2016[/li][li] edited by ganoidyn on 7/10/2016[/li][li] edited by ganoidyn on 7/15/2016
Eddy Gale began the election as a Fixer in the Jovial Contrarian’s camp, mainly because they were fond of the chaos it would wrought and the laughs that would bring. Then they started really digging into Sinning Jenny’s campaign. They rather quietly switched camps (though still publicly declare and argue for and against the Contrarian, as is his wont) when they got a look at that secret warehouse.
So 20 + 4 for Sinning Jenny. Might make it to +5 or more though… edited by 3Squirrels on 7/10/2016
I will vote the bishop, contributing 20 Fixer and 12 Notability to the cause. I don’t think he will win (from the beginning Jenny’s victory has seemed all but guaranteed) but I’m loathe to not support him.
I’ve got 3 accounts all supporting different candidates that basically cancel each other out (though the Jenny one has 14 Notability), but my meaningful vote goes to the Contrarian for 20 + 7.
RandomWalker is feeding 35 points to Jenny as a fixer, Stroller is feeding 25 points to the contrarian, although that should reach 29 by the end of the election) as a campaigner, and Third Walker is giving 25 points to Jenny as an agitator. I can’t bring any of my characters to vote for the Bishop - he’s hell-bent, and I don’t think that any of them see that as a good thing. Might change Third Walker’s vote to a losing party, after the mid-term results in. edited by RandomWalker on 7/10/2016
