THE ISSUE OF DYNASTIES was one of the sticky issues that kept cropping up in the 2013 elections. And no, it’s not just an issue at the local level, but at the national level as well.
For today’s Data a Day, we ask you a question related to families in politics. Again, this is courtesy of the PCIJ’s MoneyPolitics database, which you may find here.

Who are they?
Try to answer the question first before peeking inside the database. For those of you who’ve figured it out (or have just plain given up), the answer may be found here.
