Bryson Pittman

Judge Bryson Pittman is a Fmr. member of the MEC Community. Throughout his career, he has ran for various offices and held public offices and positions in the MEC U.S Government such as U.S Special Counsel, D3 Representative, and U.S. Attorney General. After his career in Federal office Bryson returned to local and provincial offices such as Jefferson Secretary of State, Jefferson AG, Jefferson Supreme Court Justice, and he is a Fmr. 3 term Governor of Jefferson. He was widely known for his spicy southern style, he formerly left the Democratic Party and joined the Republican Party in late 2020 rebranding himself as a "Pragmatic Conservative" who wanted to take on the elitists and the Washington Establishment. Bryson grew more outspoken in favor of more Conservative ideas such as school choice, tax cuts, and term limits. And as Governor he balanced the Jefferson Budget with a 70.4 Billion Dollar Surplus and signed into law his trademark goals on Education Freedom and School Choice Expansion. He was widely revered as one one of the most popular Governor's in the nation as one poll had him with a approval rating at 75%

After Fmr Governor Pittman left New Orleans as his terms were officially served, he was later on nominated to serve on the bench as the next U.S District Court Judge of Columbia by President Roman Thaddeus and afterwards he was confirmed 8-0 by the U.S Senate, so now currently Ruckus resides in Washington D.C and carries out his duties as the U.S District Court Judge. In his first prime time opinion on the bench, Judge Pittman ruled in favor of the respondent and the Federal Reserve in the case of Miller V. Federal Reserve, Judge Pittman decried the argument by the petitioner and stated that the Congress took part in "sound and natural construction" when delegating it's powers to the Federal Reserve in 1913 and stated that "The duties of the courts are not to show any hostility towards the laws passed by the Legislative Branch unless they are overwhelmingly infringing on the individual rights of citizens." with this opinion the Judge staked himself as the ruling originalist on the bench in the District Court and constantly used the phrase "original meaning" in his Miller V. Federal Reserve Opinion.

Mock Election Senate Election in District 2, Sept. 2017

The Mock Election Senate Election in District 2, Sept. 2017, took place on September 23, 2017. It saw Republican newcomer Sawyer Cunningham defeat Democratic newcomer and former President Independent Moderate, thus being the only Democratic defeat during the 'Blue Tsunami'.

## Background

### First Campaign

In August 2017, MEC Owner Tim Taft created a new Mock Election Senate, with the new Senate having 5 districts. Eventually, during the campaign, President Ethan Kelly made a new map with 4 districts. Controversially, this new map passed, with District 2 encompassing the Great Plains and the Rockies, while in the old map it was in the former Confederacy. This district attracted the attention of perennial candidate Adam Daniel and CBS President Duncan Daly

### Second Campaign

In September 2017, MEC Owner Ethan Kelly reset the Senate Election. This time, District 2 still attracted the attention of Adam Daniel, but also attracted the attention of Sawyer Cunningham, former Vice President Jess Bullard (though he ran in this district using the alt Chris Bradford), and former President Independent Moderate.

## Candidates

### First Campaign

#### Reform

* Adam Daniel - Perennial candidate, Owner of ANS (initially declared as an Independent)
* duncan d - Owner of CBS (initially declared as in Independent)

### Second Campaign

#### Democratic

* Jess Bullard - Former Vice President (ran using the alt Chris Bradford)

* Independent Moderate - Former Republican President

## General Election (First Campaign)

Adam Daniel and duncan d both ran for Senate. Daniel was less radical than d, but other than that shared very similar views on a number of issues, leading d to end his campaign. For the most part, Daniel ran unopposed, until ANS conducted a poll in his district, in which d won via write-in votes. This caused duncan d to throw his hat in the ring and Adam Daniel to end his campaign. Eventually, the election was reset by MEC Owner Ethan Kelly.

## General Election (Second Campaign)

This part of the campaign was arguably the most controversial campaign of the entire season. Adam Daniel and Sawyer Cunningham both somehow announced their campaigns without knowing the other was running. However, there was a third candidate running as well, being Chris Bradford. Both Cunningham and Daniel were surprised when they saw Bradford get second place in polling, since Bradford was inactive. Daniel was trying to piece together how he was losing to an inactive. Both Cunningham and Daniel campaigned heavily, while Bradford didn't campaign at all. Eventually, Daniel ended his campaign and endorsed Cunningham, and Bradford started posting. Bradford's active period would be short-lived, as shortly after he was outed by MEC Owner Ethan Kelly as an alt of Jess Bullard, much to the shock of everyone, especially Cunningham. As such, Bradford was removed from the ballot and Ethan Kelly opened up the Democratic nomination, which attracted the interest of former President Independent Moderate. However, Moderate was despised by many, causing Cunningham to win in a landslide.

Democratic National Convention

Blue denotes Ethan Fitzgerald, Red denotes Benjamin Asher

The Democratic National Convention will take place on December 9th, 2017 ending the most controversial Democratic Primary, between an incumbent and a former cabinet, and congressional member. Benjamin Asher, announced his campaign around November 15th, as later on the Fitzgerald Administration announced their bid of re-election on November 16th. The first polls came out with a outstanding lead for incumbent, Ethan Fitzgerald having him have 63% of the vote. While Asher at 32%, and the rest going to Jackson Hitchcock. After mudslinging from both campaigns over the next two weeks, Asher rose above the President polling against him 70%, and 68% in two different polls.

After that, Campaign Staffers began to work for both campaigns, making the campaign a very active election. People such as Tom Kirkman, and Bryson Pittman, would rise and go beyond there call of duty, for campaigning for their candidates. By November 29, 2017, the polls are tied, but still have Asher leading in some various polls. The election is still ongoing, and on December 9th, or the week during we will see who the victory goes to.

## Candidates

### Democratic

* Logan Rabe
* Braden Hart - Former running mate of Luca's Presidential campaign

### Republican

* Irish Pennsylvanian - Nominee for this seat in Sept. 2017

## General Election

The election was against Logan Rabe and Irish Pennsylvanian, as Braden Hart dropped out of the race early. The race was close, with the lead frequently changing hands between Rabe and Pennsylvanian. Most news organizations rated the race a Toss Up. Kelly could not call the race immediately. However, despite only leading by a few points in the polls leading up to election day, Pennsylvanian won by 20 points.
A Proud Georgian

A Proud Georgian is the former senator from District 4 from the state of Georgia. He joined MEC on September 11, 2017 and has become a very popular character in Mock Election recently becoming Senator from District 3.

### Beginning

A Proud Georgian was born September, 23 in Atlanta, Georgia to a mother from rural Georgia and a father from Chicago. He was raised with a strong Christian foundation that is frequently shown in MEC, and believes very strongly about his values.

## Personality

Georgian has always strived for positivity, stemming from early in his life when his family struggled to make it by. He believes that God is everything and that making him proud is the true goal of life itself.

He also displays a warm personality, which is reflected from his firm belief in showing Southern hospitality. Georgian has a knack for cracking jokes and having a rather hearty laugh.

## MEC

On 9/11, A Proud Georgian joined Mock Election with interest about what it was all about. After a short introduction, he quickly became immersed into the community and became a well-known user in many circles.

Waiting out the first election cycle, Georgian declared his candidacy for District 3 Senate on October 5th against Oran Mulcahy, the progressive bulldog incumbent of the senate.

Originally, no one, not even himself, thought that he had a chance to defeat the popular incumbent. Polls frequently showed him behind by double digits. Despite the towering odds, Georgian continued to campaign aggresively. In the primary, Georgian surged, narrowly toppling the incumbent 50%-46%, and sent a slight shockwave to few in the MEC community.

Afterwards, he had a rather easy time in the general election, not going against any significant opposition and won 78% of the vote.

Running for a 2nd term, Georgian beated former Secretary of Defense Jasir Best in a primary and beat his opponent, Dylan Short, by a nearly a 7-1 margin.

On May 5 he was elected president. President Georgian unfortunately passed away after saying, "Mr Kelly I don't feel so good." On June 3rd, 2018.

* Jasir Best (Withdrew)
* LaRon Pigford (Withdrew)
* Kelvin Hawthorne (Withdrew, later joined Fitzgerald's presidential ticket)
* Luca B. (Withdrew to run for HOR)￼
* Joshua Huntington (Withdrew)

## Primaries

Secretary of State Benjamin Asher un-suspended his campaign for president, after leaving MEC for a while. Shortly after, Fitzgerald announced his run for re-election. However, his campaign received criticism for Fitzgerald not even attending the kick-off rally. The primary quickly became a mudslinging battle, with both campaigns throwing attack ads at each other. Many people, both outside the party and within, condemned this style of campaigning.

As a result of the chaos in the Democratic primary, and an empty field on the Republican side, Speaker John Überfeld jumped into the race on November 25. He instantly received support from members of several parties, and led in polls against both Democratic candidates, although he did better against Fitzgerald.

Early on, Vice President Braden Hart had regularly sparred with Sen. Dank Underwood, Asher's running mate. However, on November 29, Hart announced that he would not be running for re-election, but he would continue his term as Vice President. Fitzgerald later announced that Fmr. President Kelvin Hawthorne would be his running mate. On December 1, Jon Überfeld announced that Sen. Joe Portillo would be his running mate.

While all the campaigns are utilizing surrogates to stump for them, Überfeld's campaign has a large number of allies actively campaigning for him. The Überfeld campaign is leading in many swing states. They are also leading in several states that Adam Evans had lost in the previous election, including Wisconsin, Arizona, and Texas, the state that decided the October race. On December 6, Stephen Bryant announced he would seek the Republican nomination for president. Later that day, James Mitchell announced he would not run.

In the Democratic Primary,President Fitzgerald won by a much larger margin than expected. At the DNC in Orlando, Florida, he received 2,221 delegates, surpassing the needed 2,172 needed to win the nomination.

In the Republican Primary, Jon S. Überfeld won in a landslide victory, as expected. The RNC took place in Detroit, Michigan. Jon Überfeld easily won the nomination. A total of 153 delegates voted for Fernadno Diaz and Conservative Chico, neither of whom were seeking the nomination.

## General Election

An influx of fraud votes put the original vote count at 103. Though Ethan Kelly was able to eliminate the frauds, many people still accuse the Fitzgerald campaign of impersonating inactive voters, something Ethan Kelly himself has disputed since the theory’s conception.
Initially, neither candidate was able to win over 50%, and it was very likely the race would go to a run-off. That did not proceed to occur though.

## Caleb Andrew

### Occupation:

-Former Representative D-4-Former Libertarian Party Chairman

-Former Presidential Candidate (S1,2,4, and 10?)

-A founding father of MEC

### Status:

Retired

 Caleb G. Andrew is the second most senior member of MEC after Tim Taft.

Andrews joined the community right after it's creation by Tim Taft. He was the Owner of the RR community, created by Taft, and intended to stay out of the race. He is endorsed Taft quietly and prepared to watch the election. This would not last however as he was called to run and he accepted. He announced his bid for President on August 30, 2016 and received a large surge in the polls pulling ahead of Taft and Hilton. It was realized however that he had created three alts to vote for him and this act and the immediate backlash became known as The First Scandal. Andrew dropped out of the race and became Taft's running mate, who lost to Hilton.

In the second season Andrews announced his bid early on but dropped out as Taft became the clear front runner. Caleb then created the F\*ck You Party in response to Hilton and ran a futile write-in campaign which received three votes. He endorsed Gabe Fly and became an important member of his campaign.

Andrew entered retirement and left the community after it was discovered that he had created the alt Jane Pierce who had become a very influential part of the Democratic Party. He left quietly and nobody thought they would see him again, until he returned in the spring of 2017.

Andrew announced his bid for President as the Reform Party nominee in the summer, due to the corruption of the Mod Council. In a very heated and negative race Kelly won with 51% of the vote.

When the great surge of new voters brought in by Let's Talk Elections happened Andrew saw his chance and announced his bid for the D-4 House seat as a Libertarian. He tied it on election night against Joe Portillo but won the runoff election with 56%.

Andrew announced his bid for President as a Libertarian in October choosing former Speaker of the House and the District 5 Representative John Lampros as his running mate, and became a very popular candidate up until the near-end of the election when he became inactive and many of his voters lost faith in his campaign. He dropped out on November 4, 2017 during the general election and most of his votes went to the Republican nominee Adam Evans, who just barely lost to Ethan Fitzgerald.

Mock Election House Elections, Nov. 2017

Prior to the election, Congress approved new district maps that created a new House district, District 7. As a result, it was an open seat. Early in the race, many people sought the seat, but the field eventually narrowed down to just two candidates. On Election Day, the Libertarian nominee Tim Taft emerged victorious over democratic rival Jackson Hitchcock in the D7 House race. His election secured a second seat for the Libertarians in Congress. Both Libertarians are caucusing with the GOP, giving them a 5-2 majority, and control of the House for the second time in a row.

Not much happened in the race. The two most notable events was the Naffi/Eli alt scandal, and Golden Gamers' smear campaign against Nicasio. Every incumbent was re-elected.

Mock Election House Election in District 1, September 2017

The Mock Election House Election in District 1, Oct. 2017 took place on October 13, 2017, to elect a Representative to represent District 1. Incumbent Joel Lopez got re-elected unopposed, despite the trend of Republicans and Libertarians winning elsewhere.

## Background

Incumbent Joel Lopez was popular, and as such, nobody wanted to challenge him.

## General Election

Joel Lopez ran unopposed, and was easily re-elected.
George Cross

## Political Ventures

George Cross had spoken up about politics in the past and was a strong Republican, but never really got too involved. That is until 9/29/18, when George announced a long-planned bid for District 5 House.

### First House Bid

George's first house bid came as quite as a surprise. However, he campaigned heavily. A mostly joke account Don Blankenship (a suspected alternate account) announced his candidacy against George, however, Don never registered as a candidate and was very inactive. George Technically ran unopposed for the primary. In the general election he faced off against Democrat Theo Harper and Independent Adam Smith. George led in polls leading up to the election, the race was rated from Tossup to Tilt R. George won the election overwhelmingly with 58.73% of the vote to Adam Smith's 17.46% and Theo Harpers 12.70%. There was 11.11% percent of writ- in votes.

### House Re-Election Bid

George's Re-Election Bid came as no surprise, but he did have an opponent in the primary. George managed to beat JackM Vlogs by a wide margin but then moved on to a stronger challenge. Grover T, the Democratic nominee took many jabs at George after the debate between the 2, attempting to chip away at his support base. Grover T was expected to lose the election by a wide margin, so much so that he admitted he would probably lose. When election day came, and the election's turnout was higher than the polls, Grover surged higher than George at the beginning. As the day went on however, George's numbers began to increase, and the 2 were left neck and neck with George barely leading. In the end, voter turnout stagnated and George secured Re-election.

## Candidates

Aleman was expected to improve on his margin in the Special Election. However, Kirkman got the endorsement of those who distrusted Aleman due to his record of voting straight-Democratic, like Independent news pundit Adam Daniel. In the end, Aleman won handily, albeit by a smaller margin than expected, not only failing to improve upon his October margin but doing worse than in October.
