I had a thought for a joint TL based off of US electoral history, starting in 1796 (seeing as Washington really can't lose) I set up a poll to run 4 days the site picks the President (runner up is VP) if people pick John Adams and Thomas Jefferson as President and VP the TL doesn't change and we move on to 1800 as it was in OTL, if they pick a different President and VP then we pick a different Cabinet and spend the next 8 pages covering the term and then move on to the next election


people like the idea?
 
did you know that Thomas Jefferson single handily sunk the British Isles to give America its independence?

And what was John Adams doing during the war? He was a General? Okay, but did he sink the British Isles? No!

Vote Thomas Jefferson or you fail at life!
 
I voted for Tom Pick. I'd like to see were things might go under his direction. He is an unknown compared to the others, so I think it would be the most unique.
 
Just wondering, what happens here if there is no clear winner. Yes, I know what historically would have happened, but would there be another poll to decide the choice of congress, or is that going to be up to the author's determination?
