Although you can still declare your candidate through today, voting has begun. So far we have the following people for candidates:
Michael Madsen (Purple)
Chris Harmer (Inc.) (Orange)
Mac the Movieguy (Green)
Suicidejocky (Purple)
Morgan Freeman (Orange)
Gordon Ramsay (Purple)
Megan Fox (Green)
After some discussion, here's how the voting will take place. Email votes will be given to two non-participants, RS and myself. The easiest way to vote is to go to
Ritchie's profile and to
my profile. Hit the
Email link to the upper right where it says
Click Here. In the subject, put the word VOTE. In the message text, put the name of the
one candidate that you're voting for out of all of the ones running. Do that for
both RS and myself. (You don't have to put the party name. In fact, it's a waste of time if you do.)
That's it. Vote only once. Only your first vote will be taken. Please note that votes given in any other way will not be counted. Do not pm me. Email email email.

If other candidates toss their hats into the contest today, their names will be added above. Voting will continue for 1 week, through the end of Sunday, October 19. Once the clock hits midnight Hollywood/California/Pacific time, we're done.
I will count the votes and determine the top candidate from each party. We'll have a general election after that. More details on that to come.
Really, only vote once.
Here's an incentive for everyone to vote... Each voter gets a random DVD for his/her HTG home's film library. (That's on top of the one for each campaign manager for entering the event.) Naturally, you can't be in the slums to get this. If you're in the slums (don't have a home on the HTG map) and would like to get this DVD, contact me.
As usual, this is a rules and questions thread. No campaigning here, please.
Good luck to all candidates.
