>You don't vote for kings

Fun fact, before 16th century, Swedish kings were elected. Similar practice was in use at Norway.

It wasn't very current, ofc, but point is that "you don't vote for kings" is a line with an agenda.

Edit: fixed the century

Electing kings was a long-established tradition in Poland, especially during the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries:
