Basically a popularity contest. It doesn't matter how many extra curriculars you are involved in, how well you speak, how you campaign, or how good your platform is. What only matters is how popular you are and what your lies are.
Today's School Elections:
Dustin: Hey Ben, who are you voting for?
Ben: I'm voting for Nic. He's really popular and he promised free donuts if he won.
Dustin: But what about Hannah? She's been on the Academic Team, in Science Club for 3 years and is involved in NJHS. She looks like she could do a really good job.
Ben: Yeah, but who is she? I'm voting for Nicc, cuz who doesn't like Nic?
What the elections should be:
Dustin: Hey Ben, who are you voting for?
Ben: I'm voting for Nic.
Dustin: Why? What has he done for the school?
Ben: I don't know. His speech wasn't that good, was it? That Hannah chic, her speech was really good.
Dustin: Yeah, you bet it was! I'm gonna vote for her! She's not only been on Academic Team and NJHS for 3 years, but she's been in Science Club, too. She's WAY more qualified than Nic is.
Ben: You're right. I'm voting for Hannah
So, that's how it is and how it should be.

Highly disappointing event wherein the winner of a major election is made to share power with the loser of said election. Thus, "power sharing" ensues. This leads, over time, to the loser and his party marginalizing and screwing-over the actual winner who then must try it all over again during the next election.
