I'm watching this episode again as I'm trying to write the plot and, freaking Abby again! Abby's last decision as perhaps the most terrible Chancellor in the history of the Ark (even over Diana Sydney) is to hold an impromptu election for the next Chancellor in a matter of days after a massive attack against the Sky People and in the midst of political maneuvering with other clans. It's one thing to schedule an election at a specified date and allow candidates to present themselves in a formal manner but it's another to do it overnight after you just stopped mob who gathered to go massacre a bunch of the very people you're trying to form a truce with.

What Kane should have said: "Pike, you have been elected Prom King!" That's how unrealistic that "election" was.
