Just a thought experiment.  Controlling variables here.

You forgot the option: Other (please comment)

I vote: Other

Comment: The only way to run in an election and know that you will win, is if it is rigged. I would not run in a rigged election.

You have the No option, which I voted mainly because of the reason you gave.

Yes, you are right Delfos, I just wanted to make a point about the "Other" option. I have now voted: No.

I'd run for office because I have ran for office, I never knew how the results would be and they've been frankly poor tbh, I don't run for any major party that would more likely get me elected, maybe the polls should have been worded more like that if that's what you'd want to hear.

Would you run for office in a party with most chances to elect you or not?

PS: Or maybe I never wanted to be elected, the end-game for me isn't being elected. (oh snap, I can't explain them how it's done)

I'll assume Delfos is talking about the fact that Portugal doesn't have a "Democratic" and "Republican" party.  I apologize for the wording.

Please substitute those options for whatever major party falls within that place in your country's politics.

No. Too frustrating a job and you're judged on too many things outside of your control.

After considering this I'm leaning more Mayor so as to do meaningful work for my community.
