Since Chimera Ants were able to use nen without any proper understanding of it

The ants can do all kinds of things they shouldn't know how to do. Like fight like master martial artists despite being a month old. And they DO understand it, and are at least aware of the fact that they have it.

Alluka's an untrained little kid and what's-her-name is a shitty spoiled teenager. And neither one of them even seems to be aware that they HAVE an ability. It's fucking dumb.

Ging was taking the hit on purpose, no doubt. He probably saw it as the easiest way to end the disorder.

That's what I thought at first too, but now, with Leorio suddenly being in 3rd place, and knowing how Ging Xanatos'd the shit out of that notepad incident:

Leorio is totally going to win the election now!
I'm guessing this is "All according to plan" for Ging.

I think this is probably what's going on. Not so much Leorio winning, but at least making sure Pariston doesn't.

I wouldn't be surprised if he not only took the hit, but provoked Leorio into attacking him in the first place, all knowing what the end result was going to be.
