It's a good thing you don't know the future mayor.

The article is a column by Marko Crnkovič discussing his personal reluctance to comment on potential candidates for the mayor of Maribor. He acknowledges that he knows very few of the approximately two hundred candidates mentioned in the public discourse and feels unqualified to form opinions on them due to both objective and personal reasons. Crnkovič admits he lacks the necessary skills and information to engage effectively in political speculation and expresses a preference for focusing on 'outsiders'—candidates who are not traditional political figures. He also mentions that while his political views align more closely with those of an average voter than a typical political analyst, he believes he is capable of articulating his thoughts and is interested in knowing who will become the next mayor.

Bias read (Center): While the article discusses political candidates and local elections, which are inherently political topics, the framing remains balanced. The author does not take a clear ideological stance but rather expresses personal limitations and preferences. There is no overtly partisan language or emphasis,
