With the presidential election winding down, you can see if your wise advice can do better for your chosen candidate. Pick either John Kerry or George Bush, any historical candidate, or even one you make up from scratch.

The game puts you in charge of every aspect of the political campaign for the White House, from where your candidate speaks to where you build your campaign headquarters, to how your candidate will stand on important issues.

To help celebrate this crazy time in American politics, developer Stardock Systems and publisher UbiSoft have donated several copies of the game to the Gameindustry.com prize pool. If you are chosen as the weekly winner, you can now pick The Political Machine as your prize.

Best of luck, and may the best person win.
