The president's name is Maple Arisugawa, just so you know.

Makes sense. Using Maple is a better way of representing the game as a whole for the contest as opposed to only choosing one of the three bands leading in the poll, or having all three leading bands (or all 5 bands in the poll) in there.
Besides, he's like everywhere in the game. The button for the Lobi recording integration, a hot air balloon on the Tour mode page, weeklong event banners, Free Play banner, he's shown in all of the angel and money cards, he's on the shop page, you see him whenever you do a Gacha, etc. Basically, outside of the gameplay and on regular Bromides (aside from that Joysound UR he got last year), he appears the most out of all the characters. He's a pretty good way to represent the entire game.
A little funny seeing something like SB69 having representation in Happy Meals though, given it isn't exactly aimed at children.

Perhaps Sanrio decided that it was time for Maple to be in the spotlight for a bit...

Wait a minute, the poll won't be done for like two months. Isn't this a little premature? What if the standings change between now and then?
Or is it not based on the popularity poll?

Hi,
The results are from last year's poll.

The toy is being promoted in the SHOW BY ROCK game, and from the looks of it, there are discs with the more popular groups on it that are housed in Maple. Plus, since the toys are technically for kids, Maple (one could argue) is the best choice as he looks the closest to an actual Sanrio character.
That said....I wanted a Cyan keychain....but I suppose the gudetama tissue holder will do...
