What it does

Ongoing: If you're losing here, +3 Power to this card.

Ongoing is always on while the card is in play.

It costs 3 RAM to play and brings 4 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.

Institutions cards protect your side, and come back strong when you're losing.

The site, in 1992

An American non-profit, non-partisan research group that collects facts about candidates for public office and publishes them.

It covers six areas, including voting records, campaign finances and a Political Courage Test on issue positions. Richard Kimball was its founding president; Kyle Dell took over in 2022.

Pioneer era, up to 1994. Grey pages, blue links and a browser called Mosaic. Images were optional. So was colour.

The Establishment: Governments, universities, libraries and archives. Very official.
