Fbarbarossa Posted June 9, 2021 Author Share Posted June 9, 2021 SHERROD BROWN Announcement: (20/30) The Ohio Senator's announcement is solid and well received! Swing state figures are sought after candidates and with such a strong announcement Brown is setting himself out to be a contender! Fundraising: (26/100) Sadly, Brown's initial funding doesn't match his enthusiasm. Whilst the Senator has a solid record and name recognition people seem to stick to their own ideologues at the initial launch. Starting Momentum: 2 Overall momentum: 2 -1 (Fundraising) +1 (Announcement) = 2 KAMALA HARRIS Announcement: (12/30) Sadly, Harris can't seem to drum up much support. As a first term Senator with low name recognition her announcement goes without much coverage or enthusiasm. Still, the only way is up. Fundraising: (81/100) However, those that do follow her give generously. Kamala starts with little enthusiasm but a large war chest! Starting Momentum: 5 Overall Momentum: 5 + 2 (Fundraising) -1 (Announcement) = 6 JOHN BEL EDWARDS Announcement: (23/30) Bel Edwards makes a strong showing. The Louisiana Governor has a strong record and makes strong showings in a red state. In a time where victory is needed badly many flock to him as the figure to pull it off well. Fundraising: (38/100) Bel Edwards sits outside the norm for most Democrats and his niche is rather small. The donations trickle in slowly. Starting Momentum: 4 Overall Momentum: 4 + 1 (Announcement) = 5 KIRSTAN GILLIBRAND Announcement: (17/30) Gillibrand's announcement is tepidly received. While an overall strong announcement Gillibrand doesn't make waves and falls by the wayside. Fundraising: (99!/100) BUT!!!! Gillibrand is a New Yorker with a venture capitalist husband, the money comes pouring in and her name shoots to headlines for breaking fundraising records! This more than makes up for the tepid announcement. Starting Momentum: 1 Overall Momentum: 1 + 1 (Announcement) + 3 (Fundraising) = 4 RICHARD OJEDA Announcement: (10/30) Ojeda's red faced rant at a crowd doesn't seem to be a hit. In fact it seems to become a popular meme template, not a good start. Fundraising: (11/100) The Ojeda campaign isn't flush for cash and the online donations donations don't seem to be rolling in, the campaign is off for a tough start. Starting Momentum: 2 Overall Momentum: 2 - 1 (Announcement) - 2 (Fundraising) = -1 PETE McCLOSKEY Announcement: (1!/30) McCloskey accidentally uses a few outdated terms when speaking about civil rights and freezes up when asked about his comments on the Holocaust. Fundraising: (97!/100) McCloskey still has a war chest! He's got a big pension and so does his retirement community, pitching in together he amasses a large back pocket/ Starting Momentum: 1 Overall Momentum: 1 -2 (Announcement) +3 (Fundraising) = 2 MIKE GRAVEL Announcement: (16/30) Gravel's announcement wasn't a big event so it can't be expected to make a big splash, but for its size it proves effective. Fundraising: (15/100) A small announcement means low funding, Gravel is having a gravelly start. Starting Momentum: 4 Overall Momentum: 4 +1 (Announcement) -2 (Fundraising) = 3 BETO O'ROURKE Announcement: (24/30) O'Rourke makes an electric announcement. He accomplished more than though in 2018 and seems to be carrying that enthusiasm to 2020. He's still the Texas Democrat's favourite son. Fundraising: (3/100) Sadly, fundraising is abysmal. Many don't want to take the gamble on a former Representative for President. O'Rourke will have to prove himself. Starting Momentum: 1 Overall Momentum: 1 +1 (Announcement) -3 (Fundraising) = -1 MICHAEL BLOOMBERG Announcement: (9/30) Bloomberg's announcement is weak. he seems to play the former Republican card a few too many times for the liking of many Democrats. Fundraising: Self funded so you will receive no bonuses or negatives, I may make some side rolls about your cashflow however. Starting Momentum: 3 Overall Momentum: 3 -1 (Announcement) JOE BIDEN Announcement: (19/30) While it would have been a strong announcement for others many consider the former VP's announcement to be weaker than expected, despite this it still holds strong. Fundraising: (78/100) Biden starts off with a lot of large donations from establishment figures as well as a big grant from his own pocket. As expected the former Vice President starts strong.

And that’s what I want to make this campaign about.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hestia Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 1. Senator Kamala Harris visits Iowa and sits down to meet with Representative Cindy Axne (D-Des Moines) to convince her to endorse the senator's campaign and provide a boost in the state of Iowa. If she endorses, she will hold a rally in Des Moines with her, if not, she'll do it alone. 2. Senator Harris visits the nearby state of Nevada, which is right beside her home state. She hopes to use some of her influence in the area to provide for a good boost in the state, meeting and greeting with voters in Vegas. 3. Lastly, the senator will return to Iowa to campaign in the river towns on the eastern side of Iowa, promising to deliver to those towns and flip the counties back blue like they were during the Obama years.

Zenobiyl Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 (edited) 1.) Beto O Rourke meets with numerous PACs and special interest groups to secure their support and funding for his campaign 2.) Beto O Rourke sets up volunteer centers and campaign HQs in Iowa, to kick off the campaign season. 3.) Beto O Rourke goes town to town seeking the early endorsements of low level democrats in Iowa, such as Brian Meyer, Chris Hall, and Nate Willems. (Should be fine doing three since they all endorsed Beto irl and they are state reps only.) Edited June 9, 2021 by Zenobiyl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WVProgressive Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 Ojeda, and his media team will attempt to turn the meme around his announcement speech in his favor, by making pro-Ojeda versions of it, and spreading it around the internet. The memes will describe Ojeda's anger at various flaws in the current system. Ojeda launches an ad talking about his military service, and how it gave him a sense of duty to his country that is sorely needed in American politics today. The ad will run in Iowa, and New Hampshire. Ojeda rails against Trump's protectionist policies in Iowa. He calls the trade war with China "Such a stupid, idiotic war," that "Hurts the small farmers, while big agriculture companies turn an even fatter profit using government subsidies" he calls for an end to the trade war, and promises to appoint a small farmer as one of his trade advisors to ensure that the American farmer isn't left behind.

Pringles Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 (edited) 1. Michael Bloomberg holds a meeting in Columbia, South Carolina with Mayor Stephen K. Benjamin. Seeking his endorsement. Citing their shared, moderate beliefs and how Bloomberg will ensure the Mayor has whatever he needs in his re-election. 2. Bloomberg heads to New Hampshire, seeking the endorsement of Nashua Mayor Jim Donchess. Hoping that their moderate beliefs, but passion for better, modern infrastructure, and environmentally friendly solutions will give him all the more reason to endorse Bloomberg. Bloomberg also warns against the increasingly surgent Bernie Sanders, who is doomed for defeat if he is the Democratic nominee. 3. Michael Bloomberg invites Elon Musk over for a business meeting where they discuss the future of the Democratic Party. Bloomberg asks that Elon endorse his campaign instead of Donald Trump, as Bloomberg is the only sensible Democratic candidate on the stage to beat Donald Trump. Bloomberg also ensures he won't give into the socialists. Should Elon endorse, Bloomberg simply asks him to spread the word on twitter and make some noise... and memes. (Guess this can be a national boost lmao) Edited June 9, 2021 by Pringles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cenzonico Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 1.

Gravel lands over in Des Monies, Iowa and again barnstorms to increase name recognition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cal Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 1. Senator Gillibrand will request a meeting with her colleague, Senator Maggie Hassan of New Hampshire. The two women have a strong working relationship in the Senate and Hassan was one of the first women in the Senate to follow Kirsten Gillibrand's call for Franken's resignation after sexual harassment allegations came out. A strong endorsement from the senator would poise Gillibrand well to start ticking up in the polls in the Granite State. 2. Gillibrand will also gut her staff in Iowa, replacing them with seasoned Clinton operatives where possible. Her immense boost in fundraising should allow her to hire top talent - not the political newcomers that previously made up her organization in the state. Now that she has the funds to do it, she can make a real place for the state. 3. Finally, Kirsten Gillibrand will hold a rally in Manchester, New Hampshire. There, she will come out in support of stricter gun control measures and more stringent background checks to obtain a firearm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fbarbarossa Posted June 9, 2021 Author Share Posted June 9, 2021 SHERROD BROWN (1!) Brown makes a bad step. Affordable college is good but he finds himself stumbling and trying to pander too much, he seems to mention Tom Harkin a few too many times while campaigning. In short the campaigning seems without direction or effort. Harkin Endorsement Roll: 39/100: Harkin refuses to endorse after the ill fated Iowa trip. (7) Brown's performance picks up! He manages to build a good rapport with the groups who in turn speak positively of him, this will give Sherrod an edge on the ground work in Nevada. (8) Sherrod stings Bloomberg and gives a good speech , greatly helping to define his positions! Overall: 2, Brown's campaign seems to be taking a solid path. Fundraising: 93! Sherrod manages to pick up on funds! The grassroots come through and after his speech on campaign funding support seems to be moving towards him. Momentum: 2 + 3 (Funds) = 5 JOHN BEL EDWARDS (10!) Edwards hits hard in his home state! A good start off for his campaign! Landrieu Endorsement Roll(+10 for rolling a 10): 70 + 10 = 80 LANDRIEU ENDORSES EDWARDS (7) Edwards campaigns well, the death penalty isn't a common subject in the national conversation. Giving a firm opposition to it sets Edwards apart from the rest. (6) While his opposition to abortion gives him an edge in the South, not all SC Dems support his opposition. Still, he finds a supportive crowd in SC! Overall: 5, Edwards' campaign is hitting its mark consistently! Fundraising: 44 Momentum: 4 +1 (Endorser) + 1 (Good Campaign) = 6 BERNIE SANDERS (8) Bernie's tour goes well! The audiences are receptive and his remarks and delivery are on point! Warren Endorsement Roll: 31, While they share ideas Warren doesn't endorse yet. Citing the early days of the primary season (6) Sanders doesn't hit as hard as his NH tour but he fares well, though he receives a few remarks from hecklers. (3) The door knocking doesn't go well. Sanders can't seem to generate the volunteer base and not many people answer. Some videos of supporters being shouted at from windows become moderately popular. Overall: 7, Sanders doesn't have the best week but the buzz of his announcement lets him power though. Fundraising: 51, Sanders had an initial explosion of funding. While it hasn't collapsed it has leveled. Momentum: 6 +1 (Good Campaign) = 7 PETE McCLOSKEY (7) McCloskey comes across well and respectful, making a positive impact on the community. (4) (Floyd hasn't died yet so I'm making this meetings with Civil Rights leaders) McCloskey doesn't make the worst impression but he doesn't impress. (1!) McCloskey doesn't generate good turnout for his rally which fast becomes a meet and greet with a handful of supporters. Overall: -9, McCloskey doesn't seem to be able to gain a footing after the faulty start to his campaign, instead he seems to be floundering even more. Funding: 97! McCloskey's funding doesn't seem to be falling though, in fact, it may just be carrying him. Momentum: 2 - 1 (Bad Campaign) +3 (Funding) = 4 KAMALA HARRIS Endorsement Roll: 64: Axne endorses! (2) Harris and Axne take the stage but find the rally to be incredibly under attended. Harris seems to be put off by this and stumbles as she speaks. (8) Harris recovers! She manages to connect well with Nevadan voters and drums up a base of support. Nevada is looking to become competitive. (3) Harris doesn't seem to be able to connect to Iowa. She stumbles as she speaks and doesn't seem to be able to make an impression. Overall: -2, Harris doesn't seem to be able to get her campaign off the ground. Fundraising: 90! Harris seems to have strong donors despite low support. Momentum: 6 -1 (Bad Campaign)+2 (Funding) = 7 BETO O'ROURKE (3) O'Rourke doesn't seem to be able to reach the PACs, his need for funding comes across too clearly. (6) While the HQs aren't booming O'Rourke has the organizational strength to set them up which comes across well for his campaign. Endorsements: 15, Sadly the former Congressman seems to be too obscure at this point in the race. (7) While he can't receive and endorsement O'Rourke still manages to gain support with a small town strategy. Overall: 5, O'Rourke's campaign is holding steady despite funding setbacks. Fundraising: 65, O'Rourke's funding has picked up. While he can't seem to charm PACs he managed to gain grassroots footing. Momentum: -1 +1 (Good Campaign) = 0 JOE BIDEN Endorsement Roll: 72: Clyburn Endorses Biden! (6) After making a good impression with Clyburn Biden is able to make a series of successful appearances throughout South Carolina. (7) Biden makes a good speech on a pressing issue and manages to get a few decent soundbites in. (6) Biden makes good and genuine appearances but has support sapped by Harris. Overall: 4, Biden is heading a strong campaign and seems to have his faction fairly solidly behind him. RICHARD OJEDA (7) The team turns it around! Ojeda memes seem to be on their way to being a staple of the season. (3) Ojeda's statement doesn't fair well, many liken what he is saying to the draft and/or compulsory military service. (8) Ojeda makes a good point and manages to rile up support! Overall: -1, Ojeda's campaign seems to be on its way up from a disastrous start. Fundraising: 63 Momentum: 2 MICHAEL BLOOMBERG Endorsement Roll: 75: Benjamin endorses Bloomberg! (5) The endorsement doesn't make the biggest splash. Endorsement Roll: 69: Donchess endorses Bloomberg! (4) However, it seems to fall by the wayside. Endorsement Roll: 54: Musk decides to stay out of it. (1!) Nothing seems to be up for Bloomberg. Overall: -6, The Bloomberg campaign seems to be on the brink already Fundraising: N/A Momentum: 2 -1 (Bad Campaign) +2 (Endorsers) = 3 MIKE GRAVEL Endorsement Roll: 58, Steyer politely declines, citing that he wants to see how the campaigns fair before getting involved. (3) Due to the quiest nature of the meeting Gravel doesn't appear on the national stage. (8) He succeeds! Gravel manages to charm audiences with his plain speaking and shakes a lot of hands. #GoGrandpa is trending. (4) Gravel can't seem to drum up the same energy from LA but he doesn't harm his image. Overall: 0, Gravel's campaign is rather quiet. Fundraising: 97! Gravel receives and influx of support online including internationally! Forget BernieBros, meet the GravelGuys! Momentum: 3 + 3 (Funding) = 6 KIRTEN GILLIBRAND Endorsement Roll: 26, Hassan refuses to endorse until closer to the primary date (4) After the Hassan rejection Gillibrand's NH appearances don't seem to have a certain energy. (2) Many of the staff feel that they were unfairly terminated and protest outside of Gillibrand HQs, making it difficult for the new staff to enter, exit or work. (1!) Many cite Gillibrand's previous firearm stance and attack her for "flip flopping". The rally doesn't go well. Overall: -3, Gillibrand seems to be falling victim to constant gaffes.

After a disappointing Iowa event the previous week Brown will go to counties that voted Obama then Trump in Iowa, he will go into detail on how Trump lied to them. 2.

Cenzonico Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 (edited) 1. Gravel will continue his LA barnstorm this time landing in Beverly Hills. Perhaps Gravel could make inroads with such an affluent community and prove that people no matter who can work together. 2. Gravel decides to go "fuck it" and stay in California for this turn. He goes down to Anaheim where he gives a speech about Gravel's past and experience. Giving considerable note to his reading of the Pentagon Papers. 3. David Oks and Henry Williams try to drum up support on social media, targeting Twitter specifically. You probably know why. Edited June 9, 2021 by Cenzonico Let's get #GoGrandpa trending god damn it!

Pringles Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 Event 1 (Endorser Event - Stephen Benjamin): With Mayor Benjamin of Columbia endorsing Bloomberg, Mike and Stephen head down to Charleston to seek the endorsement of Representative Joe Cunningham. Hoping that he will hop on board of a campaign that seeks to bring a moderate, Democratic Administration into the White House. Bloomberg is sure to offer any help in his upcoming re-election campaign against the supposed Nancy Mace that will be challenging him. Event 2 (Endorser Event - Jim Donchess): Bloomberg hits the trail with Jim in Nashua, New Hampshire and stops at every McDonalds, and Fast Food joint they can. Eating burgers, and talking with the voters. Bloomberg talks about how he's the best man to take down Donald Trump and have an even better economy. Event 3: Bloomberg hits the trail in Manchester, New Hampshire. Event 4: Bloomberg heads to Las Vegas and mingles with his Casino buddies, alongside talking to as many people as possible in the Casino in hopes of convincing them to hop aboard the Bloomberg campaign. Meanwhile he seeks the endorsement of Rick Harrison. The popular businessman and owner of the TV show: "Pawn Stars." The show has a popular following throughout America and is based in Nevada, sure to provide a small boost across the state and elsewhere. Event 5: Bloomberg seeks the endorsement of Former Gubernatorial Candidate for South Carolina; James Smith. A moderate, pro life war veteran, and a candidate who came within 8 points of beating Governor McMaster would surely make some waves in the state.
