No. There are two. Look harder. You don't gets to be president unless you can fill out the paperwork.

I agree. And a lot of the topic is wandering. Keep it focused on the election night: that's where Frogboy wanted the sugegstions and implied that Stardock was looking into making some changes and improving things.

On #2- I've noticed he seems to have no effect too... in fact maybe the WRONG effect.... I didn't notice- is he meant to only affect the normal HQ donations, not the ones where you fund raise? I might have misunderstood him.

It would DEFINITELY behoove the AI to MOVE his VP candidate once they've got recognition up to 90% or so...

Intersting how you pushed the environment, hm? I lacked the $$ to push any issues I wanted- I made a character a little like me- no $$, no experience, and minimal fundraising skills.

Per Brad's suggestion, here's a thread for our suggestions. Sounds like Stardock will improve this part of the game if we can come up with some good suggestions. So ADD yours people! Here are some of mine: When a state is voting, and after we've zoomed in have the game display an overlay that displays the state along with it's population and other details, pretty similar to the state info screen only add some room below for: runnin
