How about a 2 candidate election? If that were to happen then Caelapes would lose, he does not have the majority, he has a minority.

The word you're looking for is "plurality". Your candidate has a minority.

And if it turns out that more than 9 percent view him as their secondary choice? You just assume that everyone who voted non-caelapes would vote Salax, that's probably not the case.

I'm not a communist, I'm not a capitalist either. Capitalism will destroy the world. The corrupt rich people will go for the easiest option to get money, fossil fuels. Stuff like that. It's over, Caelapes won. You should have voted for New Sperland. The Capitalists would stay capitalist and the communists would stay communist etc.

"This is a dark day for the World Assembly. We have, at a stroke, slipped into the night. Whatever may come, we shall prevail - and the nations of the world shall live free!"

The Voltrovian Ambassador, while surreptitiously edging towards a waiting helicopter hovering inconspicuously by the window.
If we burn the defence papers, maybe the journalists will go away. On a private estate in the middle of the night.
In 1988. Without quite letting the residents know. Only Voltrovian protagonist kids remember.

As long as Caelapes doesn't enforce government capitalism I'm happy.

I blame the others for voting for joke candidates like Salax who had no campaign past "POTATOES!" or the idiots supporting Idi Amin renown African and dead dictator.

You want a non commie candidate, don't choose shitty opponents.
