ABSTRACT:
A political game is disclosed which includes a game board having a plurality of playing spaces providing a play path for the players. The spaces include a first group which correspond to political subdivisions and a second group which provide play instructions. Each player selects a distinctive play piece for movement along the spaces in accordance with the number displayed on a random chance selection device such as a pair of dice. A plurality of distinctive campaign promise markers, respectively representing different types of political promises are adapted to be selected by the players and placed in political subdivision spaces upon which they land. A campaign promise scoring value chart is provided including indicia assigning a maximum and minimum percentage of the vote value for each campaign promise in a particular political subdivision. The player accumulating the largest percentage of the vote in a particular political subdivision wins it. And the player winning the greatest number of political subdivisions, or the electoral votes assigned to them, within a given time period is the winner of the game.
