Visible Candidates during Election Bug (Due to UI size scale?)

Description
The NPC Gerald in Cordor has severe issues displaying options properly. Sometimes you need to refresh the talk with him several times in order to display all options available for you, for example he won't show me options to exile someone, only options to pariah despite me having powers for both until i refreshed him several times. While this is annoying, it is much worse during elections for people who do not know about this issue, because several people told me that he only shows the first candidate and no other options, so people voted for that one since they think there is no other option. Apparently it might be caused by UI size, or at least seems to be more frequent depending on it.
Steps to reproduce
Talk to Gerald for governmental steps or vote during elections.
Expected result
He should show all candidates.
Actual result
The chat window fails to load or bugs out and only shows the first of all candidates.

Misc Notes
One person stated "It happens when your UI size is not 1.0". I have issues with a 1.0 UI scale too.
Which Server(s)?
Cities and Planes/Cordor
Platform:
PC

I have this display bug for a long time already. It happens when I look at the trade menu deciding which trade craft to put, in shops the option to change item sell prices, in the cordor property list (this one is especially bad) , sometimes even the lay areas which doesn’t display all the teleport options. I had to disengage the menu and retalk to whatever was giving me incomplete list, and frankly it’s quite tiring.
But I was using iPad and thought perhaps it’s just my device. I would really appreciate if the team could rectify this but I’m just hoping here. Thanks

This is very evident when playing the android version of the game.
(I play mobile almost exclusively, btw)

Its usually fixed with trial and error, what I hate about this bug is that when the (Next...) button is bugged, and you cannot proceed to the second part of the same choices (ie: showing options 1-5, then showing 6-10), you're pretty much locked. It usually happens when the options are lengthy. Like books and portal names.
