A satirical, shareable election-night simulator turns everyday choices into mock races, with adjustable candidates, polling, and count duration.
- For
- People turning ordinary choices into shareable election-style contests
- Worth noticing
- Shared links carry a random seed so viewers can see the same timed count unfold.
Field notes
The setup asks for a question, two candidates, a polling probability, and a count length ranging from one minute to as long as 24 hours. A shared race link carries the question, candidates, polling, start time, and random seed so viewers can reconstruct the same count; the page says nothing is stored on a server and no notifications are sent. Its model starts from certified 2024 state results, while Maine and Nebraska are simplified to winner-take-all and third-party candidates are excluded.
