A solid election simulator with funny references to it's time period (2020, this version). One of the better "election nights" - though not very interactive at that stage (you can't analyze too deeply). 1992's Power Politics still leads the genre - this game (and previous iterations) are very playable though! A quick game is an enjoyable 10 minutes - MAKE ME ONE OF THE BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE!
