Little City Gets Lots of Power

One city that has formerly been at the bottom of the barrel in influence has now floated to the top. Jackson City now holds two candidates for Governor of Boy’s State within its population: William Harning for the Nationalist Party, and Jeremy Browning for the Federalist Party. No matter which candidate is chosen Jackson City will have the Governor within its clutches.

In the past, cities that have had citizens in the Capitol yield surprising amounts of power. Jackson City is completely aware of the change of stature and has been discussing what might come of the sudden turn of events. One citizen suggested Jackson City may be re-named “Kick-*** City,” or the flag may be changed from pink to a virile tie-dye.

No one knows what will come from the recent reversal of the food chain, but one thing can be sure: the boys from Jackson City will no doubt find a use for their new found power.
