ABSTRACT:
A game apparatus simulating the Presidential Electoral campaign which includes a game board that comprises special paths serving for the movement of the players' tokens. These paths represent a simplified scheme of the U.S. interstate highways and airlines drawn on the background of a U.S. map. The main nodal points of these paths are the capitals of the States with a denoted number of votes for the Electoral College of a given State. These nodes stand for steps along the way to the players' goal of attaining the maximum number of votes which represents a majority in the Electoral College. All the remaining nodes of the paths serve for the players to demonstrate their skills to compete utilizing the proper strategy as well as to manifest the players' knowledge of American history, the U.S. Constitution and historical facts relating to the Presidency. The movement of players' tokens is realized by means of 3 dice that simulate candidates' transportation by car, train or airplane. A player can select the proper die in order to deliver his/her token to the State that he chooses.
