Parts of it the govt, yea they’ve got a checked past. The topic of the OP and context of the situation was about voting tho.

So the corruption dig on the end their either alludes to:

  1. The govt rigged the election for Diossa
  2. The people are in on a scheme and cheated Diossa into office

Both of which are dumb assertions to just toss in at the last second. I think it’s pretty much just tribalism that probably got Diossa in. He just had that (D) marked next to his name. I vote primarily Democrat but I at least read up on candidates beforehand and recognize that not all (R) are maga heads. Some are just conservative people that deserve some talking to.
