2002 Simulation  

Standard practice in simulations has been to give the majority to the class with the larger enrollment. As we started to organize this year's simulation, the CMC class had a slightly larger enrollment. But then after role assignments, three late drops brought its enrollment below the Pomona class. Rather than start all over, we decided to keep the roles and replicate the Democrats' actual narrow majority by giving extra votes to the simulation Democrats, as follows:

In committee:

• Chair can break ties in all three committees;
• On Energy and Finance, chair also has two votes
• (Armed Services is tied 12-12).

On the floor:

• 1 extra vote to Daschle
• 1 extra vote to Reid
• 1 extra vote to the committee chair who has jurisdiction over the bill on the floor.
