Carly Day

Carly Day was the former mayor of Atlantic City. 
==Background==
Carly was the last pre-War mayor of Atlantic City, a career politician who set up the city hall so that professionals handled all of the municipal affairs and her secretary, Jim Harrison, handled all of her public-facing deeds. All of that effort left her as a popular, but idle figurehead enjoying her free time, riding to retirement and experimenting with productivity boosters, such as journaling.Community center terminal entries; abandoned terminal, [August 6th, 2076] She largely dismissed the fear of incoming nuclear war as political posturing and media fearmongering, neglecting to prepare for any potential catastrophe.Community center terminal entries; abandoned terminal, [August 8th, 2076]
When the Great War struck, the city was spared a direct impact, but suffered catastrophic flooding, destroying much of the city.City hall terminal entries; Don Ropiequet's terminal, 2/14/2078 When the waters settled, they reached up as far as the second floor, particularly in the ruined city center.Flooded city center terminal entries; terminal, 10/24/2077 The Casino Quarter remained dry and could have provided a base to rebuild, were Day actually prepared for the event.Flooded city center terminal entries; terminal, 10/27/2077 She wasn't. While she - or rather, her surviving staff - initiated emergency measures, such as rationing of food stockpiled in the city, Day's passivity and loss of much of her staff left her incapable of organizing any large-scale relief effort. Those who remained did their best to manage supplies, with Carly largely concerned with securing most of them for herself, rather than showing any inclination towards leadership in a time of crisis.Community center terminal entries; abandoned terminal, [October 25th, 2077] Day found herself relying increasingly on the mob controlling the Casino Quarter, which under Quentino Lombardi's leadership quickly realized the opportunity offered by such a feeble mayor. By February 2078, shortages were apparent and the mob offered to start resolving the problem, while withholding any tax payments to the city. Day remained passive even as her staff was decimated by a combination of resignations and deaths.Community center terminal entries; abandoned terminal, [February 14th, 2078] 
The rations finally ran dry in May 2078, except for Day's personal supply. She accepted the mob's offer to squeeze farms on the outskirts into providing food for the city.Community center terminal entries; abandoned terminal,[May 18th, 2078] Starvation started to set in, and though Harrison warned her of the consequences of further neglect, she ignored them.Community center terminal entries; abandoned terminal, Harrison, Jim: Lots of complaints... All she had to offer was empty words and phrases of encouragement, which only drove the holdouts further away. One of the resignations was a prompt "Fuck You" at this point,Community center terminal entries; abandoned terminal, White, Allison: Re: Notice to All Employees locked away in her office and shielded from the consequences. Even Harrison's pleas for rations to help him and his daughter survive fell on deaf ears.Community center terminal entries; abandoned terminal, Harrison, Jim: URGENT
The situation in the city became hellish and lasted years, until the mob made a fatal mistake: One of its raiding parties targeted Timothy Lane's farm.City hall terminal entries; Don Ropiequet's terminal, 2/19/2085 Unaware of the situation in the city, Timothy and his wife, Frieda, managed to restart agriculture and purify the soil of nuclear fallout, living in relative prosperity.Vault 76 dweller: "So what happened then? How does a farmer become a mayor?"Mayor Timothy Lane: " "(Timothy Lane's dialogue) After dispatching the raiding team,Vault 76 dweller: "Did the Family try to rob you?"Mayor Timothy Lane: " "(Timothy Lane's dialogue) Timothy and Frieda marched on the city hall, witnessing starvation, lack of water, and a blacked-out city deprived of electricity, with the mafia and the Showmen running rampant and Carly Day locked away in city hall. The people were on the verge of rioting over her negligence, and Lane met no resistance as he marched inside and forced her to resign. The official version released to the public was that Day transferred power to him and fled the city.Vault 76 dweller: "So what changed? How did you end up here?"Frieda Lane: " "Vault 76 dweller: "So what happened to Carly?"Frieda Lane: " "(Frieda Lane's dialogue)
Unofficially though, Lane simply shot Day on the spot.Vault 76 dweller: "How did you come into power, then?"Mayor Timothy Lane: " "(Timothy Lane's dialogue) Only a handful of people are aware of the truth, including Lane's most loyal supporter, Buttercup,Vault 76 dweller: "What's the point of the Mayor's Office?"Buttercup: " "(Buttercup's dialogue) who is also trying to keep the secret contained, as it would damage Lane's reputation and leave the Munis open to the rest of the factions.Unnecessary questions
