Protege

A protégé is a politician who shares all of your policy opinions and can run in any election that you choose (so long as it within their district). This essentially allows your policy opinions to be represented in more than one district at a time. The number of protégés that you are allowed to have increases as your political points increase.

Below is a list showing how many political points is required for each additional protégé:

100 points = 1

250 points = 2

500 points = 3

2,500 points = 4

4,000 points = 5

20,000 points = 6

30,000 points = 10

1,000,000 points = 20

Once a protégé reaches 70 years old, they will retire at the end of their current term. They will be removed from your list of protégés.

Your list of proteges can be found in the Office menu, under the protégé tab. When deciding in which election you want your protégé to run, you can look at the Districts page in the Politicians menu to see which politicians are not seeking reelection in the upcoming election. If an incumbent is not seeking reelection, a message will appear below the district's party demographics (this information will appear between weeks 2 and 19 during election years).
