What's New This Week

Have you had a race at the SmarCars Arena yet? I've been following the races all week, and I'm thrilled to announce that this new addition to Whyville is a true hit!

Despite its popularity, SmartCars is still confusing to many. Lucky for us all, Slim, the brother of Virgil and Bea, arrives in Whyville this week and has set up his Speed Shop at the arena. If you need help figuring out how to work a SmartCar, Slim is your man. Pay him a visit, but try not to distract him too much -- he is a bit accident prone...

And speaking of races, I'm sure you've all noticed the Whyville experimental version of the US Presidential race. By voting, Whyvillians are helping to find out if other forms of ballots might work better than the one in use today. It's also a chance to get involved in the political process.

I have an exclusive message from City Hall:

"There's been talk about Whyville having its own elected board of City Council members. But are Whyvillians really that interested in politics? This experimental presidential election could be a good way to tell. I think that if we get at least 1000 votes, then it'll be worthwhile to have a Whyville City Council election."

Well, you heard it here first. We need at least 1000 votes, so if you care about Whyville having its own City Council, vote, and get all your friends to vote! As we're all finding out, EVERY VOTE COUNTS!

Vote, vote, vote!
