Inside those ill-fitting suits is a vast vacuum where the ego should be, a black hole that no amount of praise or exaltation can fill. Followers are not (usually) followers in the cultish sense, and they will tune you out if you dont have the amplification that comes with a pre-existing network and a pre-existing power structure. They appear to seriously underestimate what it would take for most normal people.
Pre-Fits who follow a particular leader will not take part in the elections.
