Jameson L. Tai; AMP/USWP, in Louisiana
Jameson L. Tai truly has a resume as long as your friggin' arm.. it's all shown in the biggest forum sig line in game history. Jameson is an organizer and a motivator, America needs him and 49 more like him in Congress. Re-elect to a second term.
Jameson holds a slim lead over a candidate being discussed as a possible PTO'er.
There is scuttlebutt which would be an accusation if printed here, and I'm not in the mood to take any more forfeit points. That candidate's Party is not supporting this blocker with votes, they're coming from somewhere else.
**cough**pepperoni**cough. We need to make sure, not only that Jameson does not lose his Congress seat, but that this likely PTO'er does not get into Congress where he can approve up to 23 (I think) new enemy citizenships!


Lieutenant Scheisskopf; AMP/USWP, in Michigan
Lieutenant Scheisskopf publishes one of the, if not the, greatest military analysis newspapers, Stars and Stripes, earning the respect of over 5,000 subscribers. A game old-timer, this political newbie promises to bring strength and sensibility to Congress.
Note: I'm a blocker for the ADTP here-- vote for Scheisskopf, not for me!
Scheisskopf and his top opponent have been back and forth all day. Right now, a 1- or 2-vote lead is not comfortable. Even people not familiar with Scheisskopf, or don't play partisan politics.. an unbiased 2-minute side-by-side comparison of the two player profiles ought to tell you something.
If you need tickets, just holler at me or Scheisskopf.



Scrabman; USWP, in Western Alaska (FER)
Former three-and-a-half term President Scrabman returns to the US after a long stay in Canada, runs for Congress, and sends the opposition running. His record and his reputation are the standard by which all US Presidents are compared. His supporters respect him, they do not idolize him; his detractors fear him because he's strong, not because he's a bully.
Scrabman looks good in FER. If Scrabman has enough of a lead it would discourage the use of so many votes to snipe him. Right now, it looks good.
I'd like to direct Scrab-fans to Michigan. This one looks good, Scheisskopf's race is tight.



Kishvier; AMP/USWP, in Qinghai
Kishvier has been a strong AMP member for several months. His first Congressional run ended before it stated due to a mixup in placement. Last month he set aside his own ambitions and served as a blocker in Jiangxi. He writes some funny sh*t in his newspaper, he's a good kid, I think he'd do just fine in Congress. I was pleased to find him placed with all blockers in Qinghai, but SEES swapped their candidates around and put Emerick/gagah in there.
The kid is toast, and you'll have Der Fuhrer Emerick in Congress, unless we all pull together and show that we'd rather have an honest unknown in Congress than what we do know about Emerick.
You know I don't trust Emerick or SEES as far as I can throw 'em. Kish's current lead by a few votes does not make me relax at all. Emerick's anticipation of my writing a nice article for SEES does not seem like enough to have him throw a race like this.
It's the young nobody Kishvier or it's Emerick.. it's up to you. You know where I stand.
It's a 3-Zone move from the mainland. I'll provide tickets if you /query Custer on IRC.



For the complete list of my personal endorsed candidates,
see the Friday morning edition of this paper.




I urge all Americans to participate in the election process. Of course, read all the news articles you can stand, and make an educated decision. The players you elect to the 34th Congress will be making important decisions which will directly affect your daily game play.
Your late night vote may make it or break it for your candidate.
Or it may be a wasted vote, piled onto an already huge lead.
Check with someone in IRC who has already voted, and ask them to pull up a few States' pages for you to see where your vote may be best used.
I love the folks at #ato.. they're fighting THREE likely enemy PTO'ers tonight, one of whom is affecting one of my candidates. Check at the #ato room or with a friend or /query Custer me and I'll help you out.



Custer's Mantra

What kind of game do you play, what kind of players do you like to align yourself with?
What kind of leaders do you want, what kind of leadership do you expect of them?
What kind of country do you want to "live" in and play for?
