Comment on Has their ever been a movie or documentary that shows a person running for an office at the very beginning, the show the middle (and if they get bribed) then to the election night?

  Carcetti didn’t take a bribe nor did he ever bribe anyone. There was the shady shit with Clay Davis extorting Carcetti, but it is clear tht Carcetti didn’t play.

  Carcetti did become a slime ball in office but that was really more hurting the city to protect his political career.

    Agreed with all that. But they show his entire run including the backroom dealings like Clay Davis, so still seems pretty close.

    But it’s also been a good while since I saw it.
