App Description

Election 2016 is a two-in-one app for anyone who wants to (a) keep track of the state of the 2016 U.S. election and other U.S. political issues, or (b) kill some time and entertain themselves.

First and foremost, Election 2016 provides the first and best poll tracker Today View widget in the app store! Powered by HuffPost Pollster, you can select any of over 100 current topics (primary and general elections, favorability ratings, etc.), and the latest poll results will always be available right on your Today screen in an easy-to-read, compact format. You can change the font size, limit the widget to display only the top 1, 2 or 3 rows of results for each poll, and choose any number of polls you want to display on your Today View widget.

Second and also foremost, Election 2016 provides "Flappy Candidate," a ridiculous political homage to the short-lived hit game "Flappy Bird." Play as a 2016 presidential candidate (well, technically, that candidate's head with little tiny wings), and flap your way into the White House by winning 270 electoral votes if you can -- it's not easy!
