So the only thing that mattered in this student election was who had the better (read: more expensive) tech and who was willing to spend the most money on campaign merch. Another reason I'm so very, very glad I was in High School in the 1980s and not today. Back then, to get elected all you needed to do was be the quarterback of the football team, prettiest girl in the class or the principal's pet. Not a perfect system by any means, but still much better than this strategy which basically eliminates any student who doesn't have an unlimited bank account from even competing.*
*Come to think of it, maybe this commercial does teach something about modern elections.
