      And also to convince people to convince other people to vote for them.

      Some people will be convinced by the candidate, others by the secondary influencers. Sometimes, if the convincing doesn’t work anywhere, it’s not the fault of either the candidate or their voters - it’s the fault of people being stubborn moronic idiots.
