QUESTION TYPE: Must be True
ANALYSIS: If a politician is known to be in a scandal, two things happen: they are censured and they won’t be reelected.
The politicians in question were known to have been involved in a scandalous conspiracy. The stimulus concludes that the politicians in question won’t be reelected. We can also conclude that they will be censured by their colleagues.
We don’t know a single thing more than that.
___________
- CORRECT. Yes. They will be censured and they won’t be reelected.
- We don’t know. Maybe they were really, really unpopular and thought a conspiracy was their only hope.
- This is an incorrect reversal. A politician could have really bad policies and be censured.
- Maybe, maybe not. It might have been an all-around disaster for them.
- They might, but we have no evidence that any such politicians exist.
