Hi. I'm very interested in buying this game, and I think I would have most fun trying to win playing as a third party. Anyway I was wondering if that was available as an option.

Thanks for your time.

As much fun as that would be, the problem with doing that is that you can't have the game be remotely realistic and also have it possible for them to win. 

That isn't to say that some future version won't have a fantasy mode where you can pick multiple parties. I'd love to see 4 candidates going around trying to win.

I hope so.  When we were designing the game, we didn't realize how fun the game would be in multiplayer. 4 player multiplayer would be really neat.  But it's not likely going to happen until after the election.

That would be cool. I like single player, but because I'm not very good, I keep running into a wall on the higher opponents. There's something about beating a friend in a landslide election that 's just fun!
