Also, we will be announcing Congress Forever next week, for the 2006 elections.


That's all Tony said about it in the Developer's Log.

If I interpret that correctly, they won't be releasing the game next week, but will be announcing the basic details and when they will be releasing it. Generally each game hasn't been released until after the election is called. While that doesn't apply in the US, I'd still expect them to wait until next year.

They would also like to add to accuracy I guess. 18 months out from the 2006 election is far too early to know who the candidates would be.

I hardly think so. I'm not an expert in US politics, but I doubt that most candidates for the House of Representatives will have been announced five months after the last election. As Johnny Raoul points out in this thread: http://80soft.ipbhos...?showtopic=2383

There's many doubts about who is running for the Senate.

As well as this, the issues may not all be there. This far out from the last mid-term elections, in April 2001, 9/11 had not yet occurred. I've got a feeling that 9/11 and the first 14 months of the G-WOT were relevant to the 2002 midterms.

Isn't it bad enough already, the fact that we have less turnover than the Soviet politburo?</anti-gerrymandering rant>

unless it will be released a year before the '06 elections, Congress Forever cannot be realeased until all the candidates are know, which will be after the primaries that year.
