There’s An App For That!

With technology consuming most of our population now of days, I begin thinking about how the political campaigns are trying get young adults to vote. I have come across certain social media like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Pintrest.  So I decided to do some investigation about if there was an apple app about the political campaigns.  Surprisingly there isn’t one that informs you about their political views, but there is an game app of the two candidates using a number of blunt electioneering weapons, including the aforementioned microphone, a foam hand, a Red, White and Blue ice cream cone, and the Constitution of the United States of America.  With any game the number of times you win you unlock a number of different outfits for Obama and Romney to wear, such as an eyepatch, a clown nose, or a "sweet mustache." There are also several clever power-ups that will help you in battle: Activating "Health Care" means you can't be knocked downEven though it is all fun and games there is a purpose, prominently displaying a voter registration button on its homescreen and linking to other voting resources. The neat thing is that the app regularly tallies which candidate players select and displays a realtime running vote total and so far, about 65 percent have chosen Obama.
