With the Lulamoon / Starlight ticket and the Pie / Sandwich ticket, now we just need two pegasi to enter the race as the wildcard third party and the stage will be set for the election of the century =D .
Any nominations?
Also, this is getting to the point where I might try to write a fanfic about this insanity xD .
@Mildgyth
I could go for a Lulamoon / Glimmer election ticket. Promote the funding of independent entertainers and magical education in more poverty-stricken communities.
As for Pinkie Pie as an opponent, I could see her with Cheese Sandwich as a possible running mate. Plus it would make for a very interesting political “party”.
Please don’t shoot me. The pun had to be made.
@Solitude
Maybe some of Trixie’s slogans could be along the lines of:
“The Great and Powerful Trixie doesn’t need smoke and mirrors to win this race!”
“You won’t believe your eyes when the Great and Powerful Trixie pulls the presidency out of her hat!”
“Witness the stunt of the century! The Great and Powerful Trixie sweeps the polls!”
Something bombastic (and at least slightly self-aggrandizing) that works in her magic show and penchant for illusions.
@Joseph Raszagal
I’unno. “Vote Trixie! Trixie rules! Twilight drools!” It’s a working title. I ain’t good at coming up with slogans. As for a running mate, take a look at that box. Who better than the most honest and dependable of ponies?
@Solitude
So long as she keeps in mind how voters can also be burnt-out by seeing the same trick over and over. She’ll have to step it up in later rallies, maybe saw a pony in a box in half or escape from a locked trunk while wrapped in chains.
She’s a pro though, so I’m sure she’ll keep things interesting. Maybe she can hire Harry Stone from Night Court to be her campaign manager. He certainly keeps his courtroom interesting.
