Desertfalcon/Emerick November 08 Election Day Update
Desertfalcon
Today is the day. The first V1 elections are now taking place and are about half way through. As of right now I have about 10% of the vote and I am in third so I don't have much a chance of winning the election. However when people look back on the first elections of erepublik I want our party to stand out as one that has a history of being a player in the presidential elections therefor I will not drop out of the race even though I will not win. Nevertheless I will have an active role in the president's cabinet and will still play a key role in the country no matter who is elected.
Currently I project that Benn Dover will win the election by a healthy margin. He has had a lead for all of today and it is only growing. He has now widened the gap between him and 2nd to 110 voters while raking in about 50% of all the votes. I expect that we see 800-900 voters today so he is nearing the point where a peregrine comeback would be just about mathematically impossible.
Still despite me only have 65 votes right now and being far out of the picture I urge everyone who has not yet voted to vote for me today. My goal is to hit 100 voters which would require 350 more voters today if the trend continues. I hope that in doing this we will make a statement for the RFC and for America.

First Comment-I rule
Normally, I disagree with a candidate who is clearly out of the running to still promote votes and not back another candidate. But Benn is so far out front that I must support people voting for you. Glad to see Benn's already staffing his cabinets with bright individuals such as yourself.
Good work on your campaign DF. You deserve more votes than you got.
