		<description>Hi Pierre,

In Congress Forever, it will be the elections for the House. It won&#039;t have primaries for those races, but you&#039;re right that primaries make a difference in how the seat elections unfold.</description>

		<description>Dear friends ...

I&#039;m so happy to hear news from this game.

Small question, do you happen to plan a &quot;primaries system&quot; ? 

Not really sure this would works, however it would be very important to determine victories. Sorry I will give to &quot;Senate&quot; examples, even if senate elections won&#039;t be in your game : 

- In Florida, some Conservatives don&#039;t want Charlie Crist to win against Marco Rubio. In the same time, everybody knows that if Rubio wins, it is most unlikely that the GOP will lost this senate seat. 

- In PA, Specter is now a Democrate because he feared Pat Toomey. However, it now seems that Pat Toomey may still win against Specter in 2010 during General election. So a less moderate may win the primary and win, unlike Florida.

Will that be one of your goals to implement that kind of system ?</description>
