Where to spend, who to court, when to go negative.
The poll just moved two points against you. You have $40K left and three precincts to decide.
Do you shore up the district you're holding, or go all-in on the one you're losing?
Every race on this ballot is a game you can play. You run the campaign for one race, start to finish, right in your browser.
Every other game here is a composite. This mode is different: the real seats, by name, the ones that actually decide the House. Tap a pin to play that seat.
Every score is a real run someone posted. These are the top five in The Primary, the most-played race. Think you can crack the top?
Campaign strategy your students run, not just read about. Assign a single-player game as homework, or split the class into teams and run Who's Your Mayor? live. Every game is built from published political science research, and it's free, in any browser, with no accounts.
A short note when something ships, and how it was built. Nothing else.
Strategy, story, and the thinking behind the games.
The platform that wins your primary can lose you the general. The oldest problem in electoral politics, and the whole game in The Primary.
