Somewhere in the southeastern United States is a small town named Whispering Oaks. The town has a population of roughly 10,000 people and it’s situated about an hour’s (assuming good traffic) drive away from the nearest big city. There’s nothing particularly special about this small town that sets it apart from the rest, but it’s your small town. It’s where you were born and raised, and it’s where your family’s planted their roots. It’s an off year. The president was elected last year and the midterms are the year after this, so there’s not much in the news right now, election wise…except in Whispering Oaks. Not only is every seat in the city council scheduled for re-election, but so too is the mayor. You’ve thought about it for a while, but now you’ve decided: this year, you will run for mayor, challenging the sitting one.But first, we must figure out some key things about you. It should be noted that some of these factors will influence your chances of getting elected.>Name.>Age. (Must be 18+)>Sex.>Occupation. (Can have multiple)>Education.>Political party. (Democrat, Republican or Independent?)>Do you live near the center of town or on the outskirts?>Physical description and additional character information. (Optional)Now that we’ve settled you, let’s take a look outwards…more specifically, who is the incumbent that you will be challenging? What’s the state of the town in?>Easy: The mayor has done a bad job running Whispering Oaks. Development has stagnated, infrastructure is neglected, business and people alike are leaving. They’re expected to lose re-election, assuming that they think it worth bothering to run in the first place. They’re expected mayor’s broad unpopularity is directly sinking the rest of the city government’s approval as well.>Medium: The mayor has not done a bad job running Whispering Oaks, but they haven’t done a great job either. They’ve stopped the town from falling backwards but haven’t done anything to make it grow. The sitting mayor is painfully average and electorally a blank slate. Their chances of being re-elected are about 50/50, depending on how good of a candidate they’re up against.>Hard: The mayor has done a good job running Whispering Oaks. Businesses and people alike have flooded into the town, the roads lack any potholes, the streets are safe and—most importantly—people are happy. It would take some serious scandal, awfully-handled crisis or a once in a lifetime candidate to take this mayor down.Choose wisely. There’s no changing your decisions afterwards.
As promised in QTG, if Jack Ciattarelli is elected New Jersey governor tonight, y’all get one free max roll.

>>6327813Jack Ciattarelli did not win last night, so there will be no free max roll.Craig Theodore Cramblin wins with 60% of the vote. A prelude of what’s to come, perhaps? Locking in the answers.

Your name is Craig Theodore Cramblin and, for as long as you can remember in your adult life, you’ve sold exotic fish (and insects depending on who you are). You don’t remember what caused you to get into this odd business, but it’s what you do and have been doing for decades. The people of Whispering Oaks see you as…well, they certainly can’t forget you any time soon. You stick out like a sore thumb in an otherwise generic southern town. Despite the peculiar business which you run, you managed to stay afloat these years simply due to the spectacle of what you’re offering. You are a card carrying member of the Libertarian Party. From the moment you were able to, you’ve been voting LP every single time, with few exceptions. They’re the only party not run by a cabal of satanic pedophiles, after all. This cabal runs deep. It’s not just in the White House or even just in the federal government…now it’s slithered its way into your very own town! You’re the only one who can defeat this evil, but there’s just one problem…You’re the only libertarian in Whispering Oaks. No, literally. Everyone else is registered as either a Democrat, Republican or an Independent. You checked. Multiple times. They don’t even notice the heavy weight of oppression that city hall has put on their shoulders. Your job—your mission—is to make them notice that weight and rally them to do something about it.The woman who’s standing in your way? Katherine Hubbard. Mayor of Whispering Oaks. Four years ago, she won a third term unopposed, being nominated by both the city’s Democratic and Republican parties, and now she intends on doing it again. If this isn’t a clear as day example of the duopoly’s sham, then you don’t know what is. The local newspapers don’t even cover the upcoming election because they believe there’s nothing to discuss. And why would they? Under her leadership, Whispering Oaks has grown immensely, not just artificially but in terms of happiness, safety and overall quality of life as well with little signs of that stopping. Most citizens don’t realize the cost of this growth, but you do. Your very freedoms are at stake if she wins another term. The cabal will fully close their grip around the town if that happens. You’re going to run for mayor. You know it. Hell, you’ve got the paperwork signed at home just waiting to be submitted. The question now is how quickly you’ll get started. It should be noted that the first thing you’d need to do is collect 50 signatures to even get on the ballot, because otherwise your campaign is DOA.(1/2)
>Let’s be cautious about this. I won’t announce my candidacy right away. I need to find out just how open to voting for me the people of Whispering Oaks would be. What do they call it, an exploratory committee? You can make one of those with just one person, right? >Let’s not waste a single moment on this. I’m going to announce my campaign immediately! Do I make a post on Facebook? Do I gather a rally outside town hall? It doesn’t matter. Let’s get this started post haste! Everything else will fall into place once people are given a real alternative to the status quo.(2/2)
>>6328654>Let's not waste a single moment on this My specific pitch would be to announce the campaign with a launch party and petition signing at the fish store. Ad in the paper and posts online, send invites to groups you see as sympathetic, like the local NRA chapter. Put flyers up at the local college if there is one. Pay for catering, pay a party planner to make it nice and make the invites appealing. Let's try to start by getting 50-80 people in a room, where we can talk to them, and leverage that Cramblin Charm to kick things off. If the fish don't bite... Heh, we can find some other bait and try again (^:
>>6328670This is a good call, best to lean into our business and go on from there.

>>6328670+1
>>6328730Only thing we got going for us (other than Cramblin Rizz and that swaggy lapel pin and the faggy but honestly kinda cool suit)
I think our campaign mascot should be a beta fish, except SECRETLY it's a scorpion but only super donors are made aware of that (^:
>>6328803+1>>6328654+1 to this. We're running eitehr way. We know our core message: Death to Taxes, Freedom for Small Business! Focus on eprsoanl charisma to attract attention.Our next order of business should be learning what the community itself may find frustrating or annoying about Hubbard and her reign though. We know why WE'RE against her, but why are they? Or what could lead them to see the truth of her badness?
>>6328882I suspect they AREN'T against her, and it will be more like your second question implies: we'll have to identify what could lose her their support. Then we have to either just lie to them super fucking hard about her doing whatever that is, or win the lottery and capitalize on some disaster. My long term plan is to manipulate or induce Katherine Hubbard to sexually harass or assault Craig Cramblin by fondling him or making an untoward remark. Ideally both. How will we arrange circumstances so that she does such a thing without being able to perceive our wicked ministrations? I have no fucking clue.
Jumping straight into it wins 100% of the vote. Locking in.
>>6328891>honeypot our opponentUnbelievable charismamaxxing will be required. Might be more effective with a staffer or someone, though? We have transparent motive, and she'll be wary of an opponent.
>>6329224Yeah I think it will be extremely difficult, but it is my top scheme, albeit the dumbest. I have also considered assassination with two fat tailed scorpions or pufferfish. That's an extreme contingency though. I want to believe that Craig is, in his heart, not a violent man.

>>6329226Craig might not be up to assassinating anyone, but there's someone in town with plenty of money who may...
You’ve decided: you won’t waste a moment’s notice. The longer you wait, the more that the child fucking, goat worshipping elites in Washington can tighten their grip on Whispering Oaks. You need to act now!You go on your phone, into the town Facebook group, and begin writing up your post announcing an event at “Cramblin’s Exotic Fish” (creative name, right?) where you’ll be hosting a launch party and petition signing (you never specify what petitions or what you’ll be signing) at noon tomorrow. The very next day, you’re standing in front of a podium that had been hastily set up outside your store. In front of you on the sidewalk and into the parking lot is 40, maybe 50 people, most if not all of whom came out here purely for curiosity’s sake. Your podium lacks a microphone and any sort of decorum. It’s literally just a block of wood that raises up to your ribs. If you’re inclined, you might see this as an analogy for your candidacy in general, but right now you’re too focused on keeping your composure.“Ahem! Thank you all for coming!”Due to the fact you lack a microphone, you’re basically yelling to the crowd. “Today, I wanna make a special announcement to you all. I’ve thought about it long and hard, and I believe that this great town needs new leadership. There are people in Whispering Oaks who do not approve of Mayor Hubbard or would like to see somebody else take charge. I intend on giving those people a voice. That is why I am announcing my candidacy for mayor! I hope that y’all will support me in this quest to bring accountability to town hall and keep them in check. Thank you all for coming!”The reactions are mixed. Some are humored by your announcement. Others sigh in annoyance that their time had been wasted on this. The crowd starts to thin out, but you still get to work shaking hands and collecting signatures for your petition. By the end of the day, you’ve collected…21 signatures! That’s not enough to get on the ballot. It’s not even half. But it’s progress, and you weren’t exactly expecting to get all your signatures signed in one day. You still have plenty of time left to get the remaining 29 signatures, so you put out a post on Facebook announcing your campaign there and request that anybody who wants to help you get on the ballot meet you at your shop and call a buddy who works with your local NRA chapter to help you get some of them on board with your candidacy. You make a mental note later on to work on some actual advertising: posters, flyers, social media videos, newspaper articles, etc. Maybe even get on a local talk show if you get enough momentum?(1/2)
As you pack up the podium and see out the last of the crowd, you come to the realization that…you don’t actually have a platform prepared. YOU know why you’re running for mayor: to take down the tyrannical dictator Katherine Hubbard…but you’re practical enough to understand that THEY won’t see her as that, nor will they vote for you if you don’t have a plan for the town. You need to think of something, Craig. This pedophile in office needs to go down, but you still need to pretend like your problem with her stems from some petty differences in policy.>Write-in ideas for your mayoral platform. Some key issues in Whispering Oaks are: >Economic Revival vs. Corporate Dependence. How do you bring jobs into Whispering Oaks without selling out to big corporations? Will you support aggressive recruitment of new factories and distribution centers, support small, homegrown businesses & entrepreneurs, or something else? >Downtown Revitalization & Housing. What kind of character do you believe Whispering Oaks should have? The older residents tend to believe that we should preserve the towns character, but younger folk tend to want cafes, apartments and an active nightlife. >Infrastructure & Environmental Neglect. Water contamination, collapsing roads, sewage leaks…there’s always a risk of the town’s older infrastructures breaking apart to its own detriment. Nothing bad has happened aside from a few minor incidents over the years, but a mayor would still need to address this. A more pressing issue is the current cleanup process of the old industrial mill outside of town, in the middle of the woods.>Crime, Drugs, & Public Safety. Often one of the most emotionally charged issues in small towns. Drug abuse, delinquents smashing mail boxes and stealing packages, these things are still present in Whispering Oaks, even if the police have been cracking down on crime in the active parts of town. Will you take a more rehabilitative approach or lean into law & order?>Education & Youth Flight. One issue that the mayor hasn’t been able to address is the fact that the young people in this town leave for the big city the first chance they get and rarely come back. This means that, year by year, the town has slowly become more populated by old people without fresh, young faces. Some people think that this isn’t an issue that CAN be addressed by one mayor. Are you any different?>Identity & Cultural Direction. From confederate monuments to church influence to “outsiders changing the town,” there’s a local culture war in Whispering Oaks as well, mainly divided by age. The older folk call for tradition, order and faith while the younger folk call for inclusivity and modernization. How can you balance both sides of this topic? Or will you take a solid stance? >Keep in mind that you are a registered libertarian. This won’t matter much to most of the residents, but it doesn’t hurt to remain consistent.(2/2)
>>6329509Why wouldn't Craig specify that he needs 50 people to sign a petition for him to be on the ballot?
>>6329510>Take a moderate stance on business: big business and small business are both good for Whispering Oaks, and we should try to support both with lower taxes, expedited permitting, and limited local regulations. >Lean into redevelopment of downtown, again offering favorable conditions for business interests attempting to build new properties and small business operatives looking to open their first coffee shops or salons. >Claim to be interested in handling the Mill cleanup by using it as an opportunity to hire local business firms capable of doing the work, and that while you want to lower regulations to unleash local businesses, you are interested in finding a private agency to partner with the city in revamping local infrastructure. I'm not really sure on other issues. I do think we should consider using AI, blatant lies, and emotionally charged material to convince both young and old people - especially the ones that don't vote currently and have historically been apolitical - that there are serious problems only we can address. We want to grab an unactivated electorate of people that are not aware enough of politics to know how Hubbard has improved their lives, and make them believe she hasn't before they figure out otherwise.
Does WO downtown have an organization in charge of supporting and coordinating development? Many larger cities have them now as they try to resurrect their downtowns, nonprofits that are partially funded by the city but which also collect dues from businesses located in their district. If not, we should propose founding one and get a short list of people for the board. If there is one, we should schedule a meeting with their president. Since we live in the city, it's possible our fish store is already paying dues, if it's also located downtown.
>>6329510>Economic Revival vs. Corporate DependenceWe're a small-tow n eccentric and entrepreneur. We should encourage more of this. Rally the cause of local businesses and community organizations with a populist, anti-corporate bent! The big corpos are all in league with Moloch, anyway. This should be our MAIN issue, I think. It resonates with right and left right now.>Infrastructure & Environmental NeglectShow that Libertarian ethic: raise funds for local projects through voluntary means, and make the case that taxes and state/federal intervention are unnecessary oppression. We good people of Whispering Oaks can handle our own affairs!>Crime, Drugs, & Public SafetyDecriminalize all drugs in small amounts, but crack down HARD with neighborhood watches, private security, and a well-armed citizenry on anyone breaking, entering, stealing, r littering on private property!>Identity & Cultural DirectionGood old protestant work ethic made our town great, and no GLOBALISTS (ie. SATANISTS, also PAPISTS, but the voters don't need to know that, yet) can take that away.>Education & Youth FlightBy being a beacon of independence, freedom, and small-town Main Street Capitalism, we can make Whispering oaks a place people want to stay.>Downtown Revitalization & HousingLet the market decide.
>>6329510>>6329526+1 to meeting with the local business association ASAP, as >>6329524 said, too.
>>6329517No clue.
>>6329510>Infrastructure & Environmental Neglect.>Crime, Drugs, & Public Safety.>Education & Youth FlightWe're going to Make Whispering Oaks Great Again!
>>6329738You’re supposed to add in your own policies for those topics…
>>6329764Like I said, Make Whispering Oaks Great Again! We can let the media and public fill in the details.
>>6329764>>6329776Fucking KEK
>>6329776Spoken like a true populist. You know what you’re doing.
>>6329526There doesn’t seem to be a consensus so I’ll just pick this one since it covers the most issues if nobody’s got a problem with that.
>>6330129I sure don't, kek.
I’ll get to writing tomorrow since today’s been busy, so expect a later update. My apologies.
You spend a few minutes jotting down your thoughts on your notes app, then spend a few more minutes turning them into something filtered and palatable for the average person in this town until you feel like you have something concrete and semi-electable. It’s still just a bunch of gibberish on a notes app, but at least it’s something to work with and you now feel confident that you won’t just be running in “blind” opposition to Hubbard in the eyes of the public. You will rally the cause of empowering local businesses and community organizations while still maintaining an anti-corporate agenda. You will raise funds for local infrastructure and environmental projects through voluntary means, not through taxation (translate: theft). In fact, you’ll actually advocate your case that taxation and intervention from the state or federal government is nothing short of oppression, plain and simple. No need to sugarcoat it. Whispering Oaks can handle their own business!You’ll decriminalize every single recreational drug. Every. Single. One. To balance that out, you’ll promise to crack down and be tough on crime, albeit in an unconventional way: neighborhood watches, private security and a well-armed populace.You’ll take the side of the old people who don’t want outsiders moving in just to try and change the way the town is. This is Whispering Oaks, damnit! It may not be perfect, but you’d settle for nothing less.You’ll free up the markets, letting them fix the issue of a stagnant downtown and a potential future shortage of households without needing to lift a finger.You’ll highlight your accomplishments once it’s all said and done, and surely the young folk will think twice before wanting to move out! It’s a good plan. A great plan. Most importantly, it’s your plan. It’s not something that anybody else in town would think to come up with, for better or for worse. With that out of the way and a sales pitch established, it’s time to continue gathering signatures! You still need to reach that magic number of 50, and the day’s still young, so you- Your phone suddenly makes a sound. It’s a Facebook notification. Oh goody! It must be somebody interested in signing your petition! You open up Facebook and check your messages, only to see…Mayor Hubbard? The hell does this ugly skank want with you? You open up the message and see what she wants.[Hello, Mr. Cramblin! I tried reaching out to a personal e-mail, but it seems that you do not have one, so I am messaging you on Facebook. I have heard that you are attempting to gather signatures to enter the ballot for mayor this year. I would love to have a chat over some coffee when you can find the time!](1/2)

You begin typing your response.[Greetings, Ms. Mayor. I would love if we could sit down and talk. We can meet up tomorrow at noon at the Starbucks if that works for you.]You’re compelled to write something passive-aggressive, but you stop yourself before those thoughts can make their way into your thumbs.The rest of the day and early the next day go by uneventfully. You do however manage to add an additional 10 signatures to your petition, bringing you to 31/50! You’re past the halfway point!That aside, with the clock reaching noon, you lock up the shop, get in your car and drive to the local Starbucks, but not before secretly attaching an audio recorder to your chest inside of your suit jacket. You know how these reptilians elites play dirty, so you’ll take as few chances as possible with her. You’d wear a body cam and have somebody sitting a decent ways away as witness too if you could, but you do not own a body cam and have nobody who you think would be down with your little schemes. You pull into the parking lot and already you see the mayor sitting outside with a drink, and all by herself too. She notices and waves you over, calmly smiling.You walk over. Cautiously. Carefully. Your eyes peeled for any potential threats until you’re sat down across from her, facing down your sworn enemy. “Hey there, Craig.”She extends her arm out. You shake her hand. You feel a tinge of disgust with yourself, as if you just made a deal with the devil before any other words could be spoken.“You wanna grab a coffee first? I don’t mind waiting,” she asks.“No, it’s fine. I already had my coffee this morning.” You leave out the part where you’re suspecting poison to be at play. The baristas here are probably in cahoots with this bitch. “Your loss.”She takes a sip of the drink in her hand before she rests it on the table and adjusts her grey pantsuit before she leans forward, hands on the table. You’re leaned back, arms crossed, trying to look calm and casual. “So I’ve heard that you’re running for mayor. That’s a big deal, you know? Have you gotten the signatures you need yet? What is it, fifty, right?”“Why are you so curious?”Hubbard chuckles before realizing you’re serious.“Hey, loosen up, Craig. I ain’t trying to start problems with you,” she says.“You wanted to talk me out of running, right?”“Oh, no, not at all! If you wanna run, I won’t stop you. I just…”She takes another sip of coffee, then she wipes her mouth with a napkin.“…I was just hoping I could learn why. Not to toot my own horn or anything, but most people I’ve talked to don’t got many complaints. Why is it exactly you’re trying to run against me?”And so the game of wit begins. You make the first move, Mr. Cramblin. Just don’t blunder in the opening.(1/2)
