Yes it does. I ran for city council in 2020, thinking this same thing. I had 6 years experience in the parks board, founded a local youth non-profit, and a VERY clean record and internet presence. I lost to a lawyer with a very public sexual harassment case that he settled. I was like 28 and did not have money. I thought I could win it on my pretty well stacked experience in public service. I was wrong.
The other complication is that I was deemed to be “liberal” and my idiot opponent was deemed to be “conservative” in a non-affiliated position. To be fair, those were accurate designations. My town is very conservative. And my biggest win on parks was enacting a parks maintenance fee so… ¯_(ツ)_/¯
My own father, also running for council, endorsed my opponent. Also, my opponent was such a jackass that he was asked to step down… by my father (who won his race)
Tangentially related question: is Kenny lemmy frequently snapshot or archived in any form that’s retrievable or moderately accessible for people to look for deleted comments?
I remember short-lived websites for briefly posted but deleted reddit comments. And yes, I mean the websites themselves would go offline quickly, too. I am computer dumb (though I manage to tread water in this sea of whatever the fuck a fediverse even is) but is this what API can be used for?
