In the spirt of
Survey St. Louis's Presidential March Madness competition, and after going from one idea to another, I have finally created a Democratic counterpart:
The Democratic Nomination Bracket Competition
Please note that the front page has an image 1000 pixels wide, so to see the whole page, you'll need a pretty big resolution. I have sub pages for each region so that those with smaller resolutions can see the entire bracket, but in pieces.
More below...
First, I took a list of every Democratic Senator and Governor as well as other notable dems and then narrowed the list down to 64. I then seeded them based on 3 criteria:
- Name recognition
- Likelyhood of running
- General support
Voting starts April 10th, and all polls will be open for two days (except the championship matchup, which will be open for 3).
I think all information that one really needs to know is up there, but if you think I should put additional info up, just tell me and I'll get around to putting it up.
I'll probably post diaries on one of the two days that each poll is open (i'm still deciding whether to do it first or last day...i'm leaning towards first) to remind people to vote.
Have fun!
