New Isle of Wight election game – Guess the party from the candidate quote

Seeking to find a new angle of delivering election information to you, we’ve gone slightly left field.

We wondered, can you tell a candidate’s party, just by pulling out a single sentence they provided in their pre-election bio – zero context – just the one sentence. (you might have seen the Photo edition game)

That set us off to create a new candidate game – Guess the Party: Quote edition -> https://onthewight.com/otw/guess-the-party-from-quote-game/

Turns out, amazingly, you actually can – not all the time of course – but more than the near-zero times we thought it would happen.

Some light relief
We know it’s slightly daft, but we built it, so we figured, let’s put it out and see if anyone enjoys it.

If you don’t find any value in it – fair enough, don’t play it. If you’d like to give something a go, it’s there for you.

Play the game now

It’s just another way for you to engage with democracy more deeply.

(BTW – where people say they’re Alliance, they actually running as Independent)
