Sorry - just not enough interest to make this a viable competition at present so I am asking for the thread to be moved to the ABANDONED forum. If anyone else fancies taking it up at a later stage, you are very welcome to do so: the post of Chief Juctice of the Supreme Court is hereby vacated!

independents

Postby Plantagenet on Fri Sep 07, 2007 5:19 pm

There are at present no credible declared independent candidates. If there are before Summer 2008, my format provides for their wild-card inclusion in the Presidential Election. But given that Mayor Bloomberg has in the past been both a Dem and a Rp. it seems to me fair that the wild cards shd be available first to those who embark on the race from the start. :-)

candidate choice

Postby Plantagenet on Sat Sep 08, 2007 3:51 am

there would be a certain number of slots in the name of eight announced candidates on each side -- more for front runners, fewer for also-rans. Your choice would have a small influence on ultimate outcome:

- less competition in the first round, for also-rans
- balanced by a tournament points penalty if your candidate withdraws and you have to endorse another
- BUT a bonus if you back an also-ran and he makes it to the Primaries proper.

I don't think this is going to get off the ground anyway so I will stop wasting time on it!

Okay maybe a much scaled down "election" in view of the mass apathy!

so far 5 would be Dems and 4 would-be Republicans....

a weak show but enough to run a reasonable campaign with "primaries" on either side??
