Question about Polls

[Gorguf 0]

So I'm working on a version of the 2008 election and I'm wondering if there's a way to change the polling numbers for candidates at the start of the primaries?

In this case, I created Russ Feingold as a candidate, but I created him as a copy of Obama, so he has Obama's numbers at the start. Is there a way to change that?

Click the “Polls” tab on the main campaign editor screen and see if polls are set to on. If not, go to the Regions tab on the main screen, change the dropdown at the top to a state instead of the entire US. Then go to the parties tab. Select the party you want to edit primary data for (in your case democratic) and towards the bottom, the candidate you want to change percentages for (Feingold). Keep in mind polling error is on by default and a certain number of support is given to undecideds so the numbers in-game will look different from the ones you input.
