Seeking out zombies
Sean Power
Cheneys thirst for shooting ppl in the face subsided once zombified
Presential elections are upon us once again. Basing a political parties potential vote on their total membership can be deceiving with all the zombies around taking up space. Wellness and employment are key indicators of activity and so will be used to judge the voting potential of each party. This has been abit of a futile exercise perhaps with the 2 biggest parties (IUP and IFP) joining forces to back Pattons re-election. It was interesting to do anyhow.... maybe smaller voting blocs will see their coalition potential and bigger ones feel somewhat more challenged
😉
Predicted max potential vote = (total membership) - (unemployed) - (citizens with < 20 wellness who are employed)
More likely = My rough estimate based on intuition and guesswork

Those are some fairly sophisticated numbers my friend! I think that your distinction between "max potential" and "more likely" categories are fairly accurate in a tight or power changing election.
Voter apathy may run high this cycle as Patton campaigns for another term. (Not plugging Patton, just calling it as I see)
Fire Zombie Workers!
Very nice, and in line with my own estimates as well except for EA.
Good stuff.
Awesome analysis, man.
Top Rasta Colour-blend.
Pretty 🙂
Nice work, vote and sub.
One of the most intelligent bartenders you'll ever have the honour of being served by...
Good to see you getting back in the mix, Sean.
Eire Aontaithe numbers are probably the best there has ever been in eIreland very impressive indeed
Good Article as usual Sean
Great stats!
Thought I commented on this before, think i'll pm you to ask how you compiled this 🙂
Great stuff
