So you start out as either of the starting characters:
Crazyscientistfarmer
CrusaderOfTheWest
CityArcade
Danny
Alternatively, you can create your own character.
Next, you select your party:
RUP
HCP
EYM
Nerd
Bruh
Boot
Spongey
Liberty
Pepe
Kaiju
Alternatively, you can create your own party.
For if you select an existing party, you will run primaries. I've pulled up RUP as an example if you run for HoC.
Presidential:
PR1CE (Vp. IncognitoGuy)
BruhKing (VP. Lardar)
Congressional:
Pollard
Luigi_official
Crazyscientistfarmer (If not selected)
Player
What you now need to do is convince the RUP voters why you should be voted in.
Once you have, then comes Primaries. Here is an example voting list with 19 voters:
Presidential:
PR1CE: 17 votes
BruhKing: 2 votes
Congressional:
Pollard: 8 votes
Luigi_official: 7 votes
Player: 2 votes
Crazyscientistfarmer: 2 votes
As you can see, you clearly didn't win but, there's next election.
If you choose to continue, up comes election day. Here are an example list of parties.
RUP (You know)
HCP (BeHapp (VP: Beany Boi)) (RMK)
NERD (Sloth (VP: Jemy)) (Sugas)
Bruh (123: VP:Jeffy)) (KosheRocker)
Boot (CityArcade (VP: Randomness))
Liberty (Surly (VP: OlympianProduct))
They need to convince you to vote them. The person elected will become President/HoC and have to fend off WN.
If you choose not to continue, you will end the game and can start again.
