ElectionSim: China's 'Ender's Game' Battle Sim, Or Lem's 'Kingdom In A Box'?
ElectionSim is an extensive simulation of American voting patterns created by Chinese researchers in 2024. They collected 171,210,066 tweets from Twitter between January 1, 2020, and December 29, 2020. The reproduced 47 of 51 state contests and 12 of 15 battlegrounds.
In this paper, we introduce ElectionSim, an innovative election simulation framework based on large language models, designed to support accurate voter simulations and customized distributions, together with an interactive platform to dialogue with simulated voters. We present a million-level voter pool sampled from social media platforms to support accurate individual simulation. We also introduce PPE, a poll-based presidential election benchmark to assess the performance of our framework under the U.S. presidential election scenario. Through extensive experiments and analyses, we demonstrate the effectiveness and robustness of our framework in U.S. presidential election simulations.

Is this just a Kingdom in a box simulation from The Cyberiad: Fables for the Cybernetic Age (1965) by Stanislaw Lem? or is it the simulation room from Ender's Game (1985) by Orson Scott Card?
You be the judge.

The massive population election simulation aims to model the preferences of specific groups in particular election scenarios. It has garnered significant attention for its potential to forecast real-world social trends. Traditional agent-based modeling (ABM) methods are constrained by their ability to incorporate complex individual background information and provide interactive prediction results.
