The [[Mount Augusta (Civcraft 2.0)|Mt. Augusta]] Lord Mayoral campaign of meunier_ (widely known and stylised as "'''meunier 4 Mayor'''") was the week-long election campaign for the first term Judge and dual MtA-[[Gensokyo]] citizen on [[Civcraft 2.0]]. The campaign began with meunier's formal announcement on the Mt. Augusta subreddit on June 24, 2015.<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/MtAugusta/comments/3az7ih/campaign_meunier_for_mayor/</ref>Running on a platform of international and internal cooperation, public works projects, and her experience as a judge, meunier was seen as the status quo candidate and an extension of the popular outgoing [https://www.reddit.com/user/ProgrammerDan55 ProgrammerDan] mayoralty, of whom she received the endorsement. This was in contrast to her closest opponent, fellow Judge and [[Nox War|Nox]] affiliate [https://old.reddit.com/user/Prof_TANSTAAFL Prof_TANSTAAFL], who ran on limited government and a strengthened security state<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/MtAugusta/comments/3b00en/announcing_my_candidacy_for_mayor/</ref>.
While meunier's base of support was solid, critics argued that it was too narrow and focused on those who already liked her and the status quo, while Prof's campaign was more popular with newer residents looking to get involved politically and with the expanding Meme Team faction, also a Nox affiliate. Proponents of meunier's campaign rebutted by extolling the successes of meunier's involvement in ProgrammerDan's administration, and also by admonishing Prof's ties with Nox, arguing that he was on opportunist and would use his power to expand the wealth and influence of his own factions. In the end, meunier would come second place with 33% of the vote, losing to Prof's 58%.<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/MtAugusta/comments/3bpmrl/election_results_lord_mayor_of_mount_augusta/</ref>
