Lake County Elections, 2079!

Election November 2079!
First of all, let me explain what I'm doing here. Lakeside Heights is holding elections for various offices, and you guys get to vote! :) Below are your candidates, the office they're running for and what the job entails, and their stats on skills and experience, so you can decide who you think would be best for the job.

Three positions are running unopposed this election, because there were no other Sims qualified to run. I won't bother putting up a poll for those. The polls for the contended positions will be listed in the sidebar, and you will have until I post the November 2079 update to cast your votes. With about 13 updates before then, I would estimate that to be around the first week of November in human time.

This is just for fun, really. Only three of the positions have any major duties, which are mayor (ownership of city hall), school board president (ownership of Lake City University and local schools), and chief of staff (ownership of Lake City Memorial Hospital). The other positions will receive offices in city hall, and their positions may appear in storylines.

Candidates may keep whatever in-game job they already have, and not all jobs will correlate to the in-game job. Like a city planner or military general might also make a good mayor, for example. And either head of SCIA or military general might make a good head of military. I suppose if we have an in-game mayor who is not Mayor, we'll just pretend she is mayor of her own suburb and not the whole of Lake County.

Keep in mind that I'm just making this up as I go along ;)


If this goes well, and turns out to be fun, all positions will be up for re-election in another four Sim-years.

Polls are now in the sidebar! You can vote any time between now and the November 2079 update, and you can change your votes between now and then too. Vote away! :)

  1. Oo, the elections have begun! Looks very interesting, I can already see some cries of scandal if Madison wins for mayor and her husband wins for his position. Looking forward to it!

  2. Oh yay! I've been waiting rather impatiently for these elections to take place! I've got to read over the candidates a few more times before I make this important decision. I don't want to let the residents of Lake County down!
