Political Games Forever

East Renfrewshire Council – 2003, by Treasurer of the PC, has now been added to the scenarios page for our British election game simulation.

From the scenario designer: “The Council is a rarity in Scotland: A Lab/Con marginal. This was and still is, a Tory stronghold but with Labour eating at their vote and healthy pockets of Lib Dem support, the Tories are second, one seat behind Labour. Can the Lab/Lib Dem control come to an end, or are the Tory party still licking their wounds from their Government downfall in 1997?”

Rhode Island Gubernatorial – 2010, by Zion, has now been added to the scenarios page for our election game simulation.

From the scenario designer: “Little Rhody, the home of the American Industrial Revolution, is regarded as a solidly Democratic state. However, for the last eight years the Republicans have held the Governorship of the Ocean State, and it is top of the Democrats target list with a field of candidates vying for position. But will Chafee, the unseated liberal Republican Senator and favourite son upset everyone’s chances?”

New Jersey Gubernatorial – 2009, by Zion, has now been added to the scenarios page for our election game simulation.

From the scenario designer: “With Corzine’s popularity flagging, and the political mood in the country slowly coming to terms with the outcome of the ‘08 Presidential election, things don’t look good in New Jersey. With fresh young Republicans rising to face a tired and old Democratic establishment, who will bring the bloom back to the Garden State?”

Boris, as he’s known in England, won the London 2008 mayoral election – defeating incumbent Ken Livingstone. A London 2008 scenario, by Zion, has now been added to the scenarios page for our election game simulation.

Boris Johnson and Ken Livingstone are featured, along with a plethora of other candidates.

From the scenario designer: “Three Main Parties, Three Big Characters, One Big City, One Big Race. Can Ken hang on to the GLA for four more years? Has Boris got what it takes to run the big city? Can Paddick pound the streets, all the way to city hall? Amidst economic woes, and a less than popular government, can Ken hold on to the Mayoralty, or is London destined for Conservative government?”

With the Italian elections just past, Italy – 2008, by Francesco Privitera, has now been added to the scenarios page for our election game simulation.

This election scenario for Italy 2008 features Veltroni running against Berlusconi. Have fun!

From the scenario designer: “This my scenario on the upcoming Italian elections. It’s about the Senate race, more specifically. It includes the 5 major parties and is updated with the latest regional polls available. Will Veltroni be able to make a miraculous comeback or will Berlusconi become Prime Minister for the third time?”
