There is a natural tendency to assume that those votes you garner are FOR you. I fear the same has occurred here in Aurora.
Have a great day!

Votes cast in one's favour are certainly entitled to be credited.
In a first election, the voter is giving the candidate a chance to show what he or she can do.
They watch with interest and take personal satisfaction when the newly elected Councillor shows signs of growth. They allow for a person to learn.
For a re-elected candidate ,it's a recognition of experience and performance or the best that's available.

Yes, sometimes it's just a case of 'the lesser of two evils.'
I wasn't aware of how much of a bummer it could be to discover a vote had been misspent. AS Charlie Brown is supposed to have said, " Life is full of rude awakenings. " I had expected too much.
