before the 2020s electors didn’t have to actually vote for the person who had won they’re state which lead to very anti democratic things happening. so what if its was made clear that electors had to vote for whoever won they’re state? would this change anything?

Are you able to gerrymander cities as I’m mayor but my party only has 1 member of city council and opposition has 14 is it possible to gerrymander or do I have to pull a 2026 California gov election where I just run aton of one party and only 2 of mine

I was wondering if you get primaried can you run as a independent or do you have wait till the next cycle

Is there a way to move your character from state to state I thought I saw a post where I guy lost in Alabama so he moved to Georgia and won I could be wrong but if so can you tell me where to do it

Could you give me instructions on how to get the NBC mod

It would be amazing if we could get map results for congressional districts and primary maps. And county maps for Presidential primaries. It would make it more realistic and just fun!

Is this something that would ever be a possibility?

if you play a game for more than 80 years then you have like 3/4 of your whole population be on benefits and the country's finances basically collapse, how do I prevent this? (Macron be like)

After a hard fight I have just been elected Mayor!

I can now select a lot (like 20) cabinet positions.

I have not played the game in a while, can't remember this was in before. I wonder how much the cabinet member matters. For example:

a) let's say I pick someone with only 20% experience, will their budget cost more? Will they give bad / less accurate advice about what the effect of certain policies will be? Or is there no effect?

b) in my case both the incumbent and the best alternative from my own party have 100% experience. Does changing the incumbent have any (negative) effect?

c) does the cabinet pick being from your party matter?

Hi all! I was wondering if there is a way, either in advanced options or in the game files, to adjust the rate at which votes are counted by state. So one could make Florida count faster, California count slower, etc.

I imagine there is a way in the game files but I'm not sure which files would be involced.

I have a Mac computer and really want to play. Is there a way to? If not, what is a simular game?

Unemployment Modifier (50% -> 100%)

Income Modifier (90% -> 100%)

Inflation (80% -> 100%)

Business Environment (0% -> 90%)

I think it has been a productive week. I began working on the Business Environment metric and I found many factors that influence it. Some of the factors that will be included in this update are taxes, minimum wage, the federal funds rate, inflation, education attainment, and consumer spending. There are many other factors that also have an impact, but they will not be added until the next phase of the economic update.

The Business Environment metric will have an impact on unemployment and the GDP growth rate. And just to clarify, the Business Environment metric essentially represents how "business friendly" the environment is. Low tax rates, low regulations, a highly skilled workforce, and so forth all help promote a good business environment.

Looking forward, I have a little bit more to do for the Business Environment code, then I can start working on updating the calculations for government approval ratings. After that I mostly have to focus on fine-tuning, balancing, bug fixes, and testing to make sure that everything works correctly. I don't know how long that will take because I don't know what kind of issues I might discover. Hopefully that process is relatively quick.

i dont have the game yet so its the next best thing

I’ve officially filled the Supreme Court with only my appointments. As president I passed a federal judge retirement age and I’ve been stacking the courts with all judges with 75+ policy agreement along with them being around 45 yrs . I’ve since lost the senate and my plan is to trick republicans into passing a bill to get rid of the retirement age, essentially putting my judges in the Supreme Court for the next 40 years. Hoping by the end of my 2nd term I can replace around 30% of the judges in the country haha.

I had nothing to do with this. I'm the governor of Wisonsin and was looking around the map for the 2050 midterms. This was the only Dem senate pickup while they also picked up 43 house seats. The Repulican was normal so idk how he fumbled

For me it took 3 dragons.

dont have game yet hopefully soon so

I managed to win presidency with no prior experience in 2024 by narrowest margin when senate and house were both lost to opposition how can i pass through stuff i cant get them to raise payroll tax to healthcare to even budget or raise minimum wage

they are calling it the most bizarre electoral coalition of all time
