\nWhile I disagree with that approach, why is that a problem as such? It’s one vote. It’s how someone thinks. In politics, everything is optics. Men so very often do not vote for women because of “reasons”. Basically coming down to sexism at the end. Or people vote for politicians who “look like them” or “talk like them”. How is voting for the party symbol any different?
\nParties know symbols are to be capitalized on. They made fancy slogans like “haath a saath” or “jhaadu hi safai karega”.
