Please Update!

I love this game, but I would like to have 3rd party options. Also the conventions are over and the both candidates are in the game but not their VPs. Why is it when I play a game in 2016 not all the candidates from the year are able to be chosen like Ben Carson and Carly Fiorina. Another thing is I would like is if you would add every candidate from the years because if I play as Romney in 2012 and he wins I want to have him to have Paul Ryan as his VP in 2016. Something I would definitely pay for is if you added a make your own where you make the map and can make your own candidates. Thank you! I would highly recommend this to anyone interested in politics!

Good game but....

This is a good game but please update candidates like, John Kasich, Bobby Jindal, George Pataki, Lindsey Graham, and Rick Santorum.

¡2016!

Loved the app before 2016 campaign. Love it even more now.

I love this

This a good app I would personally like to see 3 more scenarios such as 1976,1988,and 1992

Good App

The app is really fun but I think your lacking in the past elections. I think, as a conservative, that you should add Reagan vs Jimmy Carter and Reagan vs Mondale. I would definitely buy those 2 elections
