-1 Andrew.

My reasoning is that, running and losing an election doesnt necessarily
translate into rejection. After all the loser tends to always also have a
constituence.

Losing an election simply means the one who won got more votes from the
electorate and the one who lost or came 2nd got less votes.

Folk who come 2nd or lose an election should never be stopped from running
again because no one in this community has a right to stop anyone from
contesting as many times as they can.
