Plebiscite Weekend Ward Centerville

On August 28, 2020, Americans will go to the polls, whether they want to or not, and will decide, in an up or down vote, the future of the country. A yes vote will put an end to the democratic experiment by cementing the ascension of Dear Leader. With four chaotic years of the Leader and with all of the groundwork laid down by the Nationalists prior to his emergence, the brainwashing, the coercion, the purging, he's no evil genius brilliantly masterminding a coup. He's a man who, fortuitously for him and his family, stumbled onto the national stage at the most propitious moment. In mid-August, to energize the nation for the big day, America will celebrate Plebiscite Weekend, the new Fourth of July, the kickoff to the two-week blitz leading up to Plebiscite Day. There'll be parades, fireworks, hot dogs and ... book burnings. The grandest ceremony will be in Washington, D. C., a million zealots cheering as a million books burn. Government men and women (mostly men) will be dispatched across America, to preside over all the local book burnings. One of the Leader's most trusted men, Vic Chesney, aka the Liquidator, is sent to the outwardly insignificant hamlet of Snydertown, where his sojourn will provide a microcosm of a democratic republic descending into totalitarian hell.
