Since it’s November 6th (Election Day in the USA and I’m from there) here is a Poll
Which Hunchback Character would you vote for as the leader of your country?
- Frollo (36%, 5 Votes)
- Esmeralda (14%, 2 Votes)
- Gringoire (14%, 2 Votes)
- Clopin (14%, 2 Votes)
- Quasimodo (7%, 1 Votes)
- Djali (7%, 1 Votes)
- Jehan Frollo (7%, 1 Votes)
- Phoebus (0%, 0 Votes)
- King Louis (0%, 0 Votes)
- Sister Gudule (0%, 0 Votes)
Total Voters: 14

I’m STILL undecided. All my friends would probably expect me to vote for Clopin, but frankly they’d all be terrible leaders in their own special ways. One of the traits of a tragedy is that it features very flawed characters. A good alternate title for the novel might be, “Here’s a Bunch of Really Messed-Up People.”
In the end I’d probably throw up my hands and throw away my vote by writing in “Sarousch.” But I do have one friend who favors Djali for president, so I’ll vote on her behalf. Djali is probably the smartest, anyway.
