"Strive to be humble in victory and gracious in defeat..."
To the winners of the recent elections,
Please prove to us that you deserve the position where you have been elected.
Remember that you are now public servants, ergo, you serve the public and not your own interests.
and hopefully, you have won that position fair and square.
To those who did not win this elections,
If you have legitimate legal contentions, seek the necessary legal remedies.
However, please do not resort to violence in voicing your frustration against the winners and please continue your advocacy (if any) even if you failed to win the position you desired.
To us voters,
I know we tried our best to persuade, influence or even dictate to other people that some candidates are more deserving than the others. We try to magnify the weaknesses of the other candidates hoping that it will change the tide of the survey results. However, let us accept the fact that majority of the voting public had already preferred some candidates to whom they entrust the stewardship of the Government. We may not agree with the majority, at least we showed our support for the deserving ones. This means that we need to try a little bit harder next elections in order to change the dynamics of our elections.
As superstarmarian puts it,
"We accept the government, we think that we deserve"
