Marte deserves to be voted out for many reasons, but his total indifference to crime, even in Chinatown, has got to be the biggest.

Because he opposed the Chinatown jail, people (stupidly) voted for him. He has none of the values of the people that put him in office but he's good at pretending to care about local issues.

...They'll probably sadly vote for someone even worse in 2023. They never learn.

It sucks.
