Bartender gestures to the viewscreen.
"Election debates," he scoffs. "As if the people decide who becomes Cirdare of Luon. I take it you're not from around here."

"No, just arrived an hour ago." Con said taking a sip of his water, then he continued, "what's the election about then?"

For the record, the Cirdare is the effective leader of Luon.
"They're debating about the Syndicate's involvement in government," the bartender says, cleaning a glass. "Not much point. Azrakel Joon used to be in their pocket, but he's changed his tune. Broden Abzi is the new Syndicate posterboy."

"How did Joon change"

"The Syndicate got him into the Senator's seat, so he followed their every word. Now he's advocating that they be removed from power and be labeled as criminals. I don't see him lasting long."
On the screen, Joon seems to support what the bartender is saying.
"If we continue to let these thugs roam the streets, how can we say that Luon is a free and democratic world, upholding the principals of the Galactic Republic? Right now our capital has the appearance of a backwater world under a military dictatorship, like something out of Hutt Space. But if the Syndicate and their political agenda is curtailed, the Senate will once again take interest in our glorious planet and send the support that will allow us to make the reformations that Luon so badly needs!"
There is no applause from the audience in the cantina, likely because a pair of Syndicate thugs are sitting in a nearby booth eyeing the viewscreen warily.
"It's a dangerous subject for a stranger to be asking about," the bartender warns.

"Oh, I see!" Con said and paused. "And what if I want to mean one of the gentlemem. How would I go about that?"

"Good luck," the bartender says. "Joon isn't seeing anyone. Abzi, you might as well try getting into the Syndicate's court."

"Hmm, and where is Joon located?"

"Holed up in his government complex, probably," the bartender says. "What do you want with him?"

"You won't find 'em," the bartender says. "Nobody goes looking for the Syndicate that they don't want looking."

"That's dangerous talk, stranger. Not something I need to be dabbling in, if you get me."

The bartender shakes his head.
"Only Syndicate know how to find Syndicate. If they decide to start looking for you, it's because your time is up."

I'd like to look around the bar again, who stands out? And a special look at the Syndicate thugs, are they like lowest level, etc.?

Everyone in the bar is crowded around the viewscreen. You could wait until the debates end, or watch them yourself.
And yes, these are average thugs. They have pistols sitting on the table despite the 'No Blasters' policy.

Do I have my weapons?
And I guess I will attend the viewing then. Anything interesting being said?

Yes, you do.
-
Broden Abzi, a dark-haired, pale man in a black suit, is countering Azrakel Joon, a brawny, fair-haired individual in a blue suit.
"On the contrary, my friend, the Syndicate is doing nothing if not helping Luon attain its former glory! Luon is far enough from the Galactic center that the Republic sees no reason to give it the resources it needs from without. The Syndicate has enacted several programs using its vast funds to procure jobs for the fine Luonese citizens. In fact, as we speak, the starport is receiving much needed repairs and major boosts in security, after that attempted bombing last month..."
"That bombing was staged by the Syndicate!" Joon interrupts fiercely.
Explains the men you saw working in the starport earlier, and the Syndicate security men.

Wonder what the reason was, though.
Is that debate live?
