The Week of December 16th
47 days until Iowa
55 days until New Hampshire
328 days until the Presidential Election
Headlines
The papers are released each day in the morning, and describe what happened the previous day. The first day of the cycle is a Wednesday, and the last a Tuesday, but the first newspapers are Thursday's, and the last Wednesday's.
Thursday's papers:Godis not having a good one. This time, he's using government offices--that cost money to rent, mind you--as a clearinghouse for an underground fake Rolex thing. I don't know what those words mean, I'm low on creativity, but just know that the extent is 6 and it's aNegarir.scandalis filthy rich, and releases an attack ad onKhan.Defendercalls for only gays to be permitted marriage licenses, which gets him in a bit of hot water, but his immigration speech is okay so that's cool.Reckonerwin is still in the news, asMothma'sandTSLmeet the voters and pundits.Negarir
Friday:Thescandal (they're calling itNegarirbecause he was lax about record keeping or something, I don't fucking know) is building in intensity, even as he tries to deflect with some interviews on O'Reilly.RoLaxgets heat from aAbbottsurrogate in Nevada, whilstNegariris really negative, or something. There are also protesters in places, I don't know.Serduchka
Saturday:literally appointed prostitutes he enjoyed to governmental positions in the Mongol Empire.Khanalmost seems like a weak way to put this. Not thatScandalshit is disappearing either, that is also Very Bad. In normal news,Negarir'sis that rare liberal who does poorly on O'Reilly, andPeanutstrades barbs withTSLon the trail, impacting them both.Negarircalls for whatever it is Democrats want in military intervention nowadays to rapturous applause. Anyway let's get to this debate.Serduchka
THE THIRDDEMOCRATIC PRIMARYDEBATE
Saturday, December 19th, 2015
Everyone leftalone. That's the first thing you need to know about this debate: that everyone left the clear fifth-placer alone. And they weren't wrong:McGriddlesdid not do well, having no specific thing that even interests or that differs from any other. There were three tiers in this debate; the aforementioned holding one, the winner holding the other, and the middle three. Of them,McGriddles[/color andSerduchkafought to a draw--true, the former did try to knock the latter, but it did nothing but improve the latter's standing.Peanuts, riding off that, didn't convert into a winning performance, nor did his attack onPeanutswork at all. Neither didSpire, leaving the golden boy to soar to a highly convincing win.Reckoner's
1. Spire (15 points)
2. Reckoner (6 points)
3. Peanuts (4 points)
3. Serduchka (4 points)
5. McGriddles (-1 point)
Headlines, Continued
Sunday:TheandKhanNegarirthreaten to overwhelm all else, but some things are still poking through.scandalsrides a high from the debate win, whileSpirestumbles a bit after his own performance. And it's the traditional endorsement day, so here they are:McGriddles,Negarir;Sen. Mark Warner,Defender(and he spoke well on corruption as well);Sen. Johnny Isakson,Khan;Sen. Chuck Grassley,Abbott(lmao); and in a move that'll be a big emotional blow to some:Fmr. Gov. Sarah Palin,Peanuts.Sen. Bernie Sanders
Monday:continues to drown.Khanstarts to get some clear air for some well-received policy speeches, while a newNegarirbegins to emerge, this time forscandal.Defender, to be fair, is still out there, doing things in New Hampshire and on TV to relatively good reviews, but, like. Come on.Khan
Tuesday:keeps bringing in that dough, whileTSLwould be having a good week if it weren't fort his massive fuckingKhanthat overwhelms all else.scandalis having a not-very good week after claiming pre-existing condition protections are economically bad and therefore fully bad--as a Democrat, in a Democratic primary--whileMcGriddleskeeps on in Virginia. Good stuff.Reckoner
Wednesday:gives a stirring speech blah blah blah is there anything he can't do please kill me.Spirecontinues to suffer.KhanandNegarirboth get accused of being too negative, whileReckonerdecides campaigning is important and appears on Meet the Press, doing well in the process.Mothmagets hit byDefenderon the trail; the latter's real busy today, also appearing on O'Reilly and giving a speech on free trade, to good reviews. What a week.Negarir
The Week That Was
Ironically, the Democratic primary appears more settled, but the proportional nature of Democratic delegates makes a contested convention far more likely than the inversely settled Republican primary. Anyway, this is me begging this game to make it closer.
Week in Review
The news cycle strength is how good or bad your media was for the week, if you had any media at all. The ads just tell you who's producing what, and what's being targeted in each. Scandals are self-explanatory. The full picture has basically everything that happened, but unformatted, so you can cry while you read it.
Spoiler: News cycle strength
Spoiler: Ads
Spoiler: Scandals
Spoiler: The rest
Gaining momentum:Spire,Abbott,Serduchka
Losing momentum:Peanuts,Negarir,Khan
MAPS
Ignore McMullin. Leaders of each state are colour-coded; white states means it's too close to call. The percentage list on the right-hand side is the popular vote; the lines and segments down the bottom are PROJECTED delegates. Once delegates start being earned, that will be added separately.
REPUBLICANS
DEMOCRATS
Next time, on this thing!:We are six updates away. It's time to start getting hype.Last edited by Drench on Sat Jan 14, 2017 6:38 pm, edited 1 time in total.join your union-

The First-In-The-Nation Roundup
40 days until Iowa
48 days until New Hampshire
Let's check this out, because national polling =/= state by state polling. Everything under spoilers because there are eight images here.
The Republicans
Spoiler: Iowa
Spoiler: New Hampshire
The Democrats
Spoiler: Iowa
Spoiler: New Hampshire
40 days out. 28 of those days will be taken up by the next four updates. As we get to the last week and a bit, I may do day by day updates, which will obviously be shorter and therefore faster to produce, to Increase Suspense (and also to get day-by-day maps and polling lmao).join your union-

I'm also scandal free so far btw.-

The BEGINNING of the primary is still 40 day away. You seem nervous enough about me to have already been rationalizing why I won't win though.In post 84, inspiratieloos wrote:
