Political positions as family heirlooms
The election season is truly heating up, not only on the national scene, but more so in the provinces and cities, the fiefdoms of local political families. These families have, for decades, arrogated to themselves political power as if it is their entitlement at birth. Many local government units have been run by members of the same family, or a family related to them by marriage through decades. Consequently, some localities become synonymous with the political families that have exercised control over their constituents.
