2 Questions: Starting % and Adding Veeps

[ptb]

I created my own candidate and set most of the others as "not seeking" the nomination so that I would have an easier time securing the nom. But when I start the game, not only are most of these candidates who are supposed to be non-players very much active, they're polling ahead of my guy. My guy is starting with 0%. I'm wondering how I can edit my starting % of the vote so I'm not playing from behind the entire time.

My second question is how can I add to the list of Veeps. I know you can create new ones, but is there a way to set pre-existing "leader" candidates as possible VP selections without having to manually create them one-by-one? 

Thank you in advance for any answers. Love this community!

I don't have the latest versions, however, I would recommend going to campaign editor for both.

For the first question, you should go to regions and you can manually edit your candidate's favorability based on states and territory.

And for the second one, go to the leaders, find your candidate, and then go to more and then you should be able to add candidate as your vice leader.

I know this a late reply, but I hope it helps!
