When there are winners, there are losers too.
And that's why I hate elections, of any kind. If anyone fails in their bid to get elected, they will be sad and depressed, in different degree. They might say they are okay on the surface, but come on, who are you kidding with that frown all over your face.

And what happens after the elections would be the scary part, the part that I do not wish to imagine. The people who did not get elected might lose their passion, start to skip trainings and etc bullshit.

Ideally, everyone gets back on the same track eventually and train hard towards a common goal. Let's just hope this exact situation will happen.
