Gaming the political system

"Election law... heavily favors incumbents (guess who writes that law!), making many races a lot less competitive than they could be. To illustrate the point, here's a neat Donkey Kong takeoff where you try to unseat the incumbent - personified as the huge gorilla at the top of the screen. (Also neat: there's an "easter egg" hidden on the game board): Donkey Con (Elephant Evasion)" (via Good Experience - User Experience and the 2004 Election)
