Candidate Centre: Campaign Actions Explained

The Candidate Centre is where declared candidates spend Citizen Capital to build momentum in their seat contest.

Door knocking is cheap and always available; town halls and ad blitzes cost more but deliver more momentum per action. Each action has its own independent cooldown, so you can mix and match rather than waiting on a single shared timer.

Press Questions

Occasionally your local race triggers a Press Question — a timed prompt where how you respond affects your standing. These appear directly in the Candidate Centre alongside your regular actions.

Fading momentum

Momentum decays gradually if you stop campaigning, and prolonged inactivity triggers a complacency penalty on top of that. Regular action, even just door knocking, keeps your numbers healthy.
