vcczar 1,224 Posted July 30, 2016 Report Share Posted July 30, 2016 I don't know if I'll finish this because I don't have infinite time, but I started making a scenario with characters from the Simpsons. I thought you might find this interesting. The leading candidates for office are (only did 4 for each party so far): Republicans: Mr. Burns, Homer Simpson, Dr. Hibbert, Ned Flanders Democrats: Mayor Quimby, Officer Lou, Krusty the Clown, and Sideshow Bob The map is the US; although, I'd like to create one that looked more like fictional divisions of the fictional Springfield. So it looks like Mayor Quimby is running for reelection. Burns has 1 charisma and 1 integrity and maximum corruption, but he's got about 50x more money than everyone else combined and massive campaign power. In my only simulation that I've done so far, he's constantly hit with scandals, but won the nomination soon after Super Tuesday. Office Lou won for the Democrats, only because I forgot to set Mayor Quimby's poll #s. When Burns was getting hammered in the primaries, the Democrats had a slight lead in the national polls. When it got down to Burns vs Lou, it wasn't even close. Burns won every state exception for Iowa + DC. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Conservative Elector 2 333 Posted July 30, 2016 Report Share Posted July 30, 2016 That seems interesting since I love The Simpsons. The only thing I question is that you have Krusty the Clown and Sideshow Bob as Democrats. I would have listed them also as Republicans. This list shares my opinion: http://simpsons.wikia.com/wiki/Springfield_Republican_Party The list might also include ideas for you to add, if you have the desire to do so. Here is a list of Simpson Democrats, if you need it: http://simpsons.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Democrats There are actually two pages. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
vcczar 1,224 Posted July 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2016 @Conservative Elector 2 Thanks! Yeah, I was just making guesses. I remember Homer is with a group of Republicans in one episode. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Patine 444 Posted July 30, 2016 Report Share Posted July 30, 2016 Sideshow Bob actually runs for the Republican mayor of Springfield outright in one episode, actually. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jvikings1 39 Posted July 31, 2016 Report Share Posted July 31, 2016 I love the episode when Mr. Burns runs for governor. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Patine 444 Posted July 31, 2016 Report Share Posted July 31, 2016 "Why are my teeth showing like that in that picture?" "You're smiling, Mr. Burns." "No honest man could afford to run for Governor." "I bet you could afford to run for Governor." Yes, that was a good one. But, did he have a "party" stated in the episode, or was he just a monstrous, wealthy Independent, effectively?
