How far was he willing to go to get a position? Interesting question, and possibly interesting implications. Atticus didn't have to think too long on this one. "I am willing to go as far as is legally and realistically possible, I suppose," he replied. "It's the most appropriate way to go about it. Certainly I would not resort to any means to force someone to vote for me if they did not want to just to make sure I received a place on the board. I would much rather do my best to earn people's votes." If he was going to be elected, it would be because enough people honestly believed he was right for the job, not because he had bribed, forced, or otherwise coerced them to choose him. This wasn't about power or prestige for himself anyway; it was about Hogwarts and ensuring it and its students continued to have the best future possible. He certainly hoped he could be a part of that, but this was not a "him or nothing at all" situation.
