Ironworks Official US Election Vote - Poll closes at 12AM EST WED

[Lord of Alcohol]

Please vote that maniac out of office

[Sigmar]

I'll lose faith in mankind if Kerry doesn't win. Honestly.

But he won't, though he should, just like Gore before him.

I'm not being facetious here but how can a man in this day and age win a presidential election, if the majority of the people who voted in the said election, picked someone else?

He didn't win, he didn't prove himself, time for him to bow out and let Kerry have a go.

Want more info about the mistakes Bush made? Play Bushgame if you're in any doubt.

[armageddon272]

what is "Bushgame"?

[shamrock_uk]

I'll second that? What is it?

Would someone more knowledgable about the electoral system than I please explain this:

0012 GMT: In the Senate race, the Fox and NBC networks say Republican Johnny Isakson is set to win in Georgia, succeeding Zell Miller, the Democrat who has campaigned for President Bush

How can a democrat campaign for a republican? Don't candidates have to show party loyalty? Or is it just a typo? If not, does that mean that the Republican must be campaigning for Kerry, which it surely would have to be to have a two-horse race?!

I'm all confused!

Edit: Just google Bushgame

Edit2: It's not exactly subtle. But Imperial Walker in the UN building is pure class

Edit3: Play far enough to get to the part about money and the budget. Very well presented

Zell Miller has been voting republican for the last 10 years. He's a conservative - just read his book and try to argue otherwise.

What kind of democrat campaigns for Bush? The kind that Georgia produces [img]smile.gif[/img]

And there are some "Republicans for Kerry", just as there are some real democrats for Bush. Not many on either side.

Wasn't New Jersey one of the "swing states" ? Well, they just sided with Kerry, he's definitely in the lead now.

[Illumina Drathiran'ar]

Jersey was a swing state for about a week.

One horrifying week.

First: Quesiton three brings up a few questions of its own.
1) Does it refer to any time, or just this election?
2) If the answer to (1) is just this election, wouldn't an answer along the lines of "I haven't been exposed to any of the attack ads" have been useful?

I'm not being facetious here but how can a man in this day and age win a presidential election, if the majority of the people who voted in the said election, picked someone else?

Well, as Gore didn’t have a majority of the popular vote one has to ask, who are you are referring to?

Interesting note that Bushis getting the majority of American based votes while Kerry has a demanding lead with the foreigners [img]smile.gif[/img] He should go to Europe and run for office

How can you tell, from the questions on that poll, that Bush is getting the majority of American based votes? [/QUOTE]
At the time I made the post, there were only a few voters and the numbers had to lineup that way [img]smile.gif[/img] Now of course with a larger number of respondents it's not possible to break it down as easily.

And I will loose faith in the idea that there is intelligent life on this continent if Kerry wins...one of us is going to be disappointed [img]smile.gif[/img] Forgive me for hoping it is you [img]smile.gif[/img]

As for the last election only kooks and cranks (and people who just haven't paid attention to the issue closely enough) believe there is anything indicating that Bush lost that election. Popular vote has NEVER been the rulein the US, it has always been the electoral college that has decided....need to get over the loss and move on dude.
