You didn't refer to the busloads of messengers that arrived from distant places in 1985 with passengers' intentions of voting for the man who was ultimately elected. I witnessed that man, incidentally, during the break between morning and afternoon sessions, arrive at his hotel surrounded by four armed bodyguards. When the elevator door opened, he and the four pushed the candidate's wife aside and went up presumably to his room. A few years later that electee was divorced. You had to see such shenanigans to believe that could happen. We were absolutely stunned.

"Heartbroken" is a perfect title. It's how I felt, and currently feel, especially in face of the Law Amendment wanting to purge the SBC again. Sad. But maybe it is setting me free.
