Cyber, there are pretty much real 2 Dems running this time. Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton. If the scum was both of them, they'd already pretty much know they'd have to play the Repub or try to fake why they're the odd "men" out. It might be that they didn't give the town the obvious advantage and threw the scum in the betwixt the town. Given this is a balanced game, I assume the mods took this into account one way or the other.

Granted, we do have Mr. Lesser Known Democratic Candidate running around, which could either prove your point, or be the exception to the rule.
