This application is an educational activity modeling the current
system of U. S. Presidential Elections.  It is set up in the form of a
game in which each player manages a candidate from one of the United
States' two major parties.  Eight turns simulate an eight week long
campaign, with players' decisions affecting the standings of their
candidates in state-by-state polls.  After the campaign is complete,
these polls are used to simulated elections within each state and the
District of Columbia and a winner is determined according to the
electoral college results.
