It's too bad we can't have any new candidates.

If you made an election sim where this happened, people would be bitching about it as unrealistic:

"What I'm saying is that the game seems likely to be broken. It generated me one guy who cannot get above 25% base support no matter what I do. And all of the other candidates have high base support, but no independent support. There is no way to win the election because I cannot pick a candidate who has enough of both types of support.

There's no way this would happen in real life. In real life, if you had candidates this bad, other people would have joined in the race early.

This isn't really playable as it is. I'm just hoping for a patch to come out soon."
