(fluff)Friends Election

Get the most (fluff)Votes!

The goal of the (fluff)Election is to get as many votes for your (fluff)Friend as possible! Several (fluff)Offices are up for grabs - everything from (fluff)President to Speaker of the(fluff) and (fluff)Senator.

When visitors come to your (fluff)Page, they can click the "(fluff)Vote for me!" button, and you will earn one vote.

At the end of the (fluff)Election, we will tally up all the votes, and you will be given your Official (fluff)Election Title based on how many votes you received. The top 2% of all vote-getters will be awarded the title of (fluff)President, and all the laurels and prizes along with it. The next 2% of vote-getters will become Vice President of the (fluff), and so on. Read below for more details on the Titles of the available (fluff)Offices, and the prizes.

No - (fluff)Voting isn't like other elections... because (fluff)Friends are generous social animals, you can vote for as many (fluff)Friends as you like, and you many vote as many times as you like, with a few special notes:

• For any particular (fluff)Friend, if you vote for them once, you will have to wait one hour before you can vote for them again.
• So, for example, if you vote for your friend Julie, you will not be able to vote for Julie again for another hour... but you will be able to go and vote for other friends in the meantime.

Why not! Do you seriously think Obama voted for Ron Paul? =)

Every vote counts. And because you can only vote for any particular (fluff)Friend once per hour, don't forget to stop by your own (fluff)Book to rack up the votes...

...but seriously - no aspiring (fluff)President is going to rely on their own votes to put them into office... the way to succeed is to find ways to bring in other people to vote for you.

Be as creative as you like in how you'd like to run your campaign!

And to help you out, we've created a special "Vote for me" button just for you that you can use as campaign material to help promote your (fluff)Friend - send it to your friends, work together with others, post it to your blog, share it on the (fluff)Forum, create a Facebook group, share it on MySpace, send e-mails, send snail mails, make phone calls, start a cause, plant a tree... whatever you like! It's up to you.

Absolutely! Encouraging first-time (fluff)Voters to participate in the (fluff)Political process empowers the future! To reward you for spreading the (fluff)Love, new (fluff)Owners' votes count double!

More specially - Anyone who adopted their (fluff)Friends in the past 30 days has Double the Voting Power, so every vote they cast actually counts twice.

So, if you have any friends who don't have a (fluff)Friend yet, be sure to let them know that they should vote for you, because each time they vote, you will receive TWO additional votes!

We have a personalized voting report page just for you - see how many votes you have, as well as who is voting for you.

Because people can come back and vote for you again and again, you can keep track of who your best voters are... perhaps someone is hoping for a seat in the (fluff)Cabinet?
