In a small town in Hungary, a mayor candidate died a few weeks before the election, but late enough that there was no way to get another candidate stepping in. And there were only 2 of them anyway. So election looked like this: 2 names on the ballot, one of them crossed out, you either vote for the other guy or make an invalid ballot. Now, the guy who died was the candidate of the largest Hungarian party and obviously would have had the best chance of winning. Results? Other guy got 100% of the _valid_ votes, but only around 20% of all votes. 80% were invalid. He didn't even last a year.

Quick note from a Chinese viewer in China: It is sort of like the Day of the Dead, about paying respect, mostly. There are several films about this festival. They are all horror, and they all freak me out. The Ghost Festival - technically the Hungry Ghost Festival - 餓鬼節 - actually took place in August this year - it is the seventh month, but of the old Chinese Lunar calendar, not the one most of us go on (the lunar calendar lagged behind by a month this time around.) There are large, colorful flags erected along major streets to guide these wayward spirits (and stop them meandering into people's houses, presumably) that are put up for the entire month as well - makes for a peculiar sight; and on the day there are gatherings of people leaving food out, spreading rice, burning incense and grave money and stuff. Pretty cool. Also, lads, it's Star-Lord, not Space-Lord. Marvel might grumble, but they'll be okay with it.

What they say is different each episode, but they usually use this template: Chris says a short variant of "hello." Gary ad-libs a silly sentence. Matt usually ends it with a variant of "Hello, KZbin!" Often in different languages, such as Swedish ("Hej hej"), French ("Bienvenue"), German ("Guten abend") and Arabic ("Marhaba").

In some countries, it's normal to allow someone who died shortly before an election to stay on the ballot. If they're elected, there's an immediate bye-election. It's fairer than just leaving them off the ballot, because it allows the party time to put a new candidate forward.

Hooray for similes. Chris says "a series of minor vehicular events," which he meant as "obscure recurring festivals that involve vehicles," but which sounded like "a mysterious trail of automobile incidents"

The Wikipedia stub for the 1878 North Lancashire By-Election was just edited to reflect that it's noteworthy for being mentioned in this show. It extended the article from one sentence to two.
