Voting is like choosing a team captain. Sometimes the person you pick looks smart and confident, but they might not always make the best choices for the whole team. That's why we vote, because we believe that even if someone doesn't know exactly what to do, they can still help us all work together better.
Examples
- A class votes for a team captain who is good at speaking but forgets to bring the supplies.
- You pick a friend because they're funny, even though you both know they're not great at math.
