How dare you not research the (only) candidate running for town auditor before election day! Now who knows who'll win.
Diesel-Electric locomotives are 'electric'. They get their electricity from diesel generators, but the motors are still 100% electric.
That was something that amazed me on a "How it's made". Diesel trains are just a big-ass Diesel motor connected to a big-ass generator that runs the electric motors. It's why it's relatively simple to have hybrid systems where the trains can switch to overhead lines in some areas.
