Accidental Politician

So I somehow managed to accidently get myself involved in archaeology department politics. THIS is what happens when you volunteer to help out! I decided to run for a position within the department, thinking that no one else would want the job. That, of course, turned out to be the case with every other position except for the one I volunteered for. So now there is an election, which I just extremely dislike being a part of. I don't think I have ever participated in an election before, and now I remember why. It just feels all fake and phony, and rationally speaking, I couldn't care less who wins. Deep down, however, I am a bit too competitive to say I truly don't care...
