A seduction into power. A candidate promises all kinds of bullshit to increase their appeal and convince the blissfully ignorant to vote for them. Once in power they have everything they need and therefore don't have to give a damn about the masses anymore. And to rub salt into the wound all the bullshit they promised before the election is revealed to be: bullshit, much to the dismay of voters. Strangely the majority doesn't seem to catch on and this method has been utilised to the same effect ever since.
Political elections are bullshit. Next time you see the successor to the throne preaching about how much better your lives are going to be once they're in the power palace, get out there and hunt these traitors down, hang them for deceiving the public and take back the money they were taking off you to fund the austerity brigade, arms dealers, media circus, conformity agents and the domination state.

The feeling you have the day after an election, because you stayed up late trying to find out the results.

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.

As opposed to a c-section, when the results of an election cause pregnant women to conclude their unborn child has a better chance of survival the sooner they get the right to vote, therefore the sooner they are born.
Person A: I went into labor yesterday, and had a beautiful baby boy. But it was a premature birth.
Person B: Really? Why?
Person A: I underwent an election section after experiencing the shock of Tuesday’s election.

The conclusion to the democratic process employed by various locals said to represent the will of the people. It is often achieved through a process known as counting, whereby a perceived majority claims victory over the perceived minority (please note that actual numbers are seldom referenced until they have been placed into the appropriate provisional ballot box where they are deemed as false votes and duly discarded until the desired result has been achieved).
Ted: Hey, did you hear that Obama won the election in New Mexico?
Ralph: Really? What was the election result?
Ted: All of the delegates went to Hillary.

November 2, 2010. A sad day in America.
It is typical for a mid-term election to favor the oppostion party, however due to unlimited corporate spending this year, the G.O.P. took a bigger chunk than anyone would have thought possible. Republicans had a 25% approval rating in 2010. They somehow bought a majority in Congress and made gains in the Senate. Luckily the Tea Party was only able to get 32% of their candidates elected.

The 2010 Election was a major set back for President Obama and a potentially devasting blow to the working class struggling to recover from the Bush Depression.
