Me saying that he probably doesn't actually hold a seat on the council himself is because to have likely the richest CEO in the world, one who has major influence/dominance in globally critical industries, is begging for conflict of interests. He'd be making choices for himself and his company, not citizens. Seems that he is allowed to run for council, however, judging by the news headlines in this episode. One of them reads:

"Election Imminent

Mantle Hometown Hero vs Atlesian Tycoon"

I instantly thought of Jacques. I missed this post.

At least Jaque is more coherent and understandable than the parallel they're clearing going for. Whether he's got better ethics and less destructive policies... don't know. We would need to see him get elected to make that call. He's definitely smarter though.
