With the grand opening of Roflgator's new map; The Golden Gator 2020, and amidst rising distrust in the current Bricktown President Zapdec, the lobby collectively decided to hold a new election.
Any regular in the lobby was allowed to run, as long as they were present on the required dates with a Vice President alongside them.
Voting was done through strawpolls in Twitch chat and lobby votes, which individually counted as 5 chat votes.
The first "round" of this election was held on the 19th of June 2020 with 14 candidates running, but only 6 were voted through.
A few days later on June 22nd the 6 remaining candidates participated in a live debate to discuss policies.
Election night was held 4 days later on June 26th.
Candidate History[]

The original 14 running candidates were:
- The-Wanderer with VP Axman

- AskJoshy with VP Bearly

After counting all chat and lobby votes, the 6 candidates who were voted through the first round were:
However, MurderCrumpet dropped out in support of Walter H and gay SciFri who were the 7th place candidates. If they were to drop out as well, Gulliblez would be promoted to the 6th candidate.
Presidential Debate[]
The candidates from left to right: Walter H, Vore, MurderCrumpet, Meech, AskJoshy, Dotty
The purpose of a presidential debate is not to directly eliminate candidates, but to provide insight into their policies and influence future voting.
This debate started with Lanfear dropping out to replace Vincent X as Meech's Vice-President, with Vincent leaving of his own volition. As a result of this, MurderCrumpet was brought back in.
To represent Dotty, former candidate R3dzDead was selected, but kicked off after a few rounds due to allegations of him sabotaging Dotty's arguments.
Bagel made a return to the lobby and became a last minute debate moderator.
The debate was split into four parts: Roflgator/Bagel questions, followed by lobby questions, then chat questions, then finally a debate royale where the contestants shout over each other while the strawpoll to decide the winner was created.
After a chaotic debate with much shouting, the winner was voted to be Meech[1]
Election Night[]
The final round, where the President would be voted in, was held on the night of June 26th, 2020. The candidates had to preform a final presentation, then votes would be counted through a strawpoll in twitch chat and lobby votes which counted for 10 chat votes. Due to being a no-show, Vore was removed from the polls.
The five presentations (in order) were as follows:
- MurderCrumpet: a musical performance battle between Peppymint and Gulliblez, with a surprise entrance by LethalLexi
- Walter H: Enthusiastically advocating for prison rp and bring his VP SciFri on stage to unviel his new female avatar
- AskJoshy: A custom video[2], featuring attacks on all the other candidates. His VP Bearly also promised break his 15 year dry-streak of not ejaculating
- Meech: A custom video featuring 23 different people from the lobby giving their endorsements to Meech. Notable names included Jor Rilla, Sodapoppin, and Nagzz21. He would then speak on stage, with CrazyMango and Sn0wBreeze as backup dancers
- Dotty: Brought on 4 Fullbody dancers, including her VP CrazyMango. Dotty herself was not in fullbody but did her best desktop shuffle
After the five presentations had finished, a strawpoll was created for chat votes, and everyone in the current lobby said their votes to Rob one by one.
As he won both the chat poll[3] and got the most lobby votes, AskJoshy was sworn in as the new Bricktown President. Meech came 2nd place in both, losing by ~150 chat votes, and having 15 lobby votes to Joshy's 18.
Trivia[]
- Due to allegations of Elon using Wooks as a puppet, and Wooks having an ongoing cheating scandel, they were removed from the polls.

- IRON＄JEW came late to the first event and was temporarily replaced by Birdocalypse who was called his twin for having a similar voice.
- Even though he was not running Rob would get two votes on election night, from Dotty and Mango.
