Ten years ago Mrs. Jones was elected president in your country. Since then your living situation changed dramatically, and for the better. You used to struggle, living from paycheck to paycheck, but because of the economic improvement, in a large part due to Mrs. Jones policies, you now have a stable job, you live in a fairly comfortable apartment, you can finally afford healthcare treatment and you start yours, you get married, and you slowly started to raise a family. Your situation is not unique; in fact, (and since this is my hypo, you know this for a fact,) 2/3rds of the citizens have a story that is very similar to your own.
Mrs. Jones' policies of "doing whatever the fuck I want" internationally also raised the ire of the US, the EU, Russia, and China, and all countries sanctioned your country. However, because of the able leadership of Mrs. Jones' newly appointed Minister of Treasury, Mr. McDog, the sanctions barely affected you. When it comes to enforcement of the country's laws, they're strictly enforced, but sometimes party members can skate on something relatively minor, i.e. a car accident where no one was hurt.
Mrs. Jones also views a man's (or woman's) home as his/her castle, but behavior in public places is strictly regulated. Making out in a public place carries a fine, having sex can get you 120 hours of community service, and displays of sexuality are frowned upon. Mrs. Jones' friends have also taken control of the country's media, with the exception of the Internet, which is readily available to all citizens. Mrs. Jones refuses to regulate the Internet, with the exception of the basics, i.e. no videos on how to make meth or murder people. OJ Simpson is sanctioned from visiting your country. However Mrs. Jones uses the TV and radio to constantly badger the opposition by verbally assaulting their political viewpoints, but not their members. Immigrants must be educated, and are required to learn the country's language, but can speak in their own language whenever they want to do so. Border enforcement is quite strict.
Mrs. Jones is a Devout Christian, but will only provide public benefits to religious organizations, if they serve the community, and said service is diligently monitored. She supports buildings of Mosques, Churches, Synagogues, and even Chuchinagogues, provided that such centers take care of the homeless and provide an additional layer of the social safety net. Leaders of the Congregations receiving public benefits must live frugally. Her party controls the Legislative Branch, and although she sets the policies and they listen, there's an ample amount of healthy debate on how to best promote the policies; you once called your legislator, and he made your point during said debate, and it was accepted.
So - would you vote for Mrs. Jones? The living situation described above is your living situation. The opposition has better ideas suited to your needs, but you have no idea if the opposition will be able to successfully implement them.
I would vote for Mrs. Jones, because my financial situation is improving, and the Government is able to implement their goals, which affect me, and most of the country's citizenry, in a positive manner.
