Some are largely symbolic and respectful of the status quo regardless of outcome, others gravitic shifts in the paradigm. But none have explicitly defied the laws of nature by pitting candidates operating in wholly different times and circumstances against one another to see how they stack up... at least, not until now. So, to revive a previous thread that's been dormant for too long, what are some of the most interesting ASB elections you can come up with, whether they invoke time travel or otherwise-ineligible candidates throwing their hats into the race? If we could see some electoral maps to go along with posters' suggestions, that'd be great. Perhaps even a summary of how the election itself might go, for those of you in a particularly descriptive mood.
Thank you in advance, Zyobot

How about 'Gerald Ford (1976) Vs. Jimmy Carter (1980)'?
Let's also assume they're campaigning in front of a modern electorate as a default, though will results will vary depending on the timing and "composition" of their voting bases.

A bit odd, but how about ‘GOP Primary: Dick Cheney (2004) Vs. Richard Nixon (1972)’? In that case, I suppose Between Two Dicks might actually be an appropriate TL name, for once!  |
