| Foreword: I want to thank all of those who came out to take my poll. The sample size was significant for a community like ours, however because of the dynamics of our community polling isn't a science. There's no way to weight numbers to be more accurate of a demographic, and there's no way to know X or Y variables that you can account for in real life. These numbers aren't the end-all-be-all, and it's not the end of the world. You should always take polls with a grain (or whole shaker) of salt. I could run the same poll tomorrow and get wildly different results based solely upon who is turning up to participate. At the end of the day there's only one poll that matters: the voting booth. So be sure that you get out and make your voice heard when it really counts on Election Day. |

Comments This got very interesting and exciting. I remain with misgivings about Brunhilde, but she has some good ideas, and could go far in the Goldenblock. I worry that her plans are *too* ambitious - on the one hand, Rach is right that we could do with some very ambitious plans, but... I'm always going to cautious about these things. No one has a good interior plan, and we desperately need one [This is Oak.] Brunhilde is a qualified Presidential candidate. I was excited to vote for her. Until she picked Rand. Until she picked JayDee. Until she picked Rach. Brunhilde is a qualified candidate for President who has terrible judgment. Truly disappointing. Neither Brun nor Rach have been active in the ministries this term. Darcness/Sopo is the only ticket that doesn't make me want to abstain from voting. Abolish the Government. Rach was definitely a step in the right direction for Brun's campaign, they might be able to pull out a win. I was more undecided until Rach was picked as Brun's new running mate. I was planning to evaluate the platforms this week and then decide for sure, though I had been leaning towards Darc/Sopo. But Rach's only political activity recently has basically been to gin up drama and controversy to feed a populist narrative. I don't want that in the Goldenblock, a resignation away from the Presidency. Frankly I think it's quite bizarre that someone named to be a Vice Chancellor has spent more time running for President than seemingly doing their job.

Comments this election sucks, the candidates are shaped like they've all been hit by trucks, i dont know if the electricity to vote is worth the few bucks At least when Brunhilde had JayDee, she had someone that has worked for the region. Now it's Rach? Wait, Brun/RACH? How did I miss that on the first page of the poll? Yeah... no, please, god no, no Rach anywhere near the Goldenblock please. Brunhilde's ticket worries me immensely, I'm not comfortable with her leadership style which was aptly described on Mixlr as being a CEO, and uncomfortable with her VP. I really feel like Brun needs to sit out for a Presidential election or two and do some gruntwork to get back in touch with Europeia. She seems a little too gungho about doing it her way which would destroy Radio. I don't care how many times she changes the Radio part of her platform. The fact that this was her first idea shows how little she understands about the ministries she will be in control of. Picking Rach was a bad choice. If something happens to Brun and Rach steps up to be President will she resign as Queen of Balder? Rach isnt gonna save Brun Abolish the government. There absolutely needs to be limits on who can run. Length of time in the region, post count, whatever, but something should be looked at for this. I strongly disapprove of Rach more so than the concept of Brun for president..

Comments Rach in the Goldenblock and Queen of Balder at the same time will cause us real problems in foreign affairs. I do not believe that Rach has the temperment, mindset, skills or... anything to be an effective Vice President, or god forbid, President. Brunhilde is not doing herself any favors by picking Rach as her replacement Running mate. I think Brunhilde's campaign slogan should change from "Europeian Voice" to "Europeian Screaming in the Wind Hoping Someone Hears" because that's what her campaign feels like. Abolish the government. Rach is one of, if not the most, divisive person I know. Instead of looking for compromise, she latches onto what she perceives to be the truth and to hell with what everyone else thinks. I don't trust her to make any kind of tough decision on her own that would benefit the majority and choosing Rach as her VP damages what little faith I had left in Brun. Europeia is a game but it's one we should take seriously and expect serious dedication to from our leaders. I'm very disappointed in some candidates who seem content to shirk responsibility for their actions by citing RL issues constantly. We are a community and will support you but when you are in a position of leadership you have to understand that what happens to you impacts us all. |

Expectations
Regardless of the ticket you intend to vote for, who do you think will win on election day?
| Darcness/Sopo | 82.6% (↑34%) | | Brunhilde/Rach | 15.2% (↓33.4%) | | Oakrugia/Dark Templar | 2.2% (↓0.7%) |
Graphic
Comments Picking Rach suggests Brun is lost in the woods when it comes to VP choices. Rand, JD, and Rach is a bad track record - part of me wants to see her win so we can see what minister picks we'd get. ugh Brunhilde had a VP resign in disgrace. Maybe next time. Darcness/Sopo FTW Abolish the government. |

Can you share how many total responses you received? I see everything is shown as a percentage, and you're stating it's a "significant amount" but unless I'm blind (wholly plausible) ... you didn't say how many people took the poll.
Great information, so far, and I look forward to seeing the rest of the results later tonight!

These are interesting results, and not especially surprising ones to me. I have to agree with a lot of the comments here.
Though, I will say that this anti-Brun Comment: "Frankly I think it's quite bizarre that someone named to be a Vice Chancellor has spent more time running for President than seemingly doing their job." is wholly unfair.

Yes, in Brun's defense, the Chancellery does not come with a specific set of duties except for election-related things.

No surprises here.
I’m convinced that either Darc or Brun would be a good President, but Brun seems to struggle with campaigning.

Edit: Okay, I think I should be done for now. PhDre sent me some crosstab data that I'll edit into the last reserved post later, but I need to eat dinner.  Mouse, sorry for taking a bit to respond to that, I had locked the thread while I finished doing it be piecemeal because it's easier for me to do the code that way. The response rate was 46, I didn't it put it explicitly but the graphics, I think, show it. No worries - I knew I was going off for a stretch, and I thought you had enough reserved posts, that I'd be safe to add a reply. Thanks for the response.
The responses weren't all that unexpected, but still useful information to have, ahead of election day. Thanks again!
