Waukee Man Creates App That Predicts Next President

The presidential election isn't all fun and games, unless you have an app for that.

Logan Stinger of Waukee does.

Stinger created Fund Slinger 2012, a mobile application for the iPhone, iPad and iPod. Fund Slinger 2012 is an interactive game featuring seven GOP presidential candidates alongside President Barack Obama in Whack-a-Mole type game that claims it can predict the results of the 2012 election.

In a news release from PRWeb, Stinger said: “I want to find out if casual polling through game play can help predict election results. If I can get enough people playing the game, we might be able to reveal some interesting patterns."

For the 99-cent download fee, Stinger's game allows players to throw bags of money and stacks of cash at the candidates as they stand at podiums on a debate stage. The goal is to "donate" as much money to a candidate in an allotted amount of time. Donations are doubled as they go to your favorite candidate.

Stinger said the application tabulates overall contributions by region thus naming the likely candidate for president of the United States.

Fund Slinger 2012 is just 99 cents at the Apple App Store. There's also a YouTube video that demonstrates how the game is played.
