Obviously i'm not a BBS Politics regular, but since
the Election is coming up very soon,
don't you think it'd be nice to have an idea of who would win?
Incase you don't know, a Mock election is just
like a real election, except it just doesn't count.
Just for statistical reasons.
I searched the BBS and didn't find anything like this,
so i think it'd be interesting if we started
having Mock Elections every presidential term.
Obviously this year it's going to be between:
Barack Obama / Joe Biden,
or John McCain / Sarah Palin
but your welcome to vote for other candidates.
This is not a discussion thread.
If you have something to say about your candidate,
the Election 08 Discussion Thread is here.
I'm tallying the votes myself,
but if anybody else would like to tally them as well
your welcome to (just incase somebody miscounted.)
Also, you're not allowed to vote twice, i'll be checking.
Please try to keep this a serious thread,
My vote is for Obama.
Let's see if this election will hold the same results as the real one. :]

Are you going to include foreigners and people too young to vote? Because that's most of Newgrounds right there.

That's true right there. Furthermore, it'll be hard to get straight answer from some, with this being Newgrounds.

One day, when I am really, really fucking apathetic about an election. I plan to to libertarian, regardless of how much I disagree with them on certain issues.

Very true.
Well it's a mock election for a reason, i think anybody should be allowed to vote
as long as they know the candidates...
How silly of me to think Newgrounds people would give me real answers. :/

That would be McKinney, the first black woman to run for president. :]

Obama.
Don't have time to go into all of the reasons, but I should say it was a reasonably tough decision.

Bob Barr
Screw Obama and his nanny state jargon.
Second choice would be Mccain, but only on the forums. In reality i would vote obama, because america needs to be punished for it's prostituting ways, it sells itself out to corrupt bureaucrats in the name of equality.

I wouldn't doubt it if someone voted 'Rape'. I'm a Canadian and I haven't been paying to much attention to the U.S. political situation, so I'll just vote Obama.

You shouldn't believe that you have the right of free thinking, it's a threat to our democracy.
