The problem asks us to identify the digit that does not belong to the same font as the others. Observe the text ``Electoral Mandate''

The font style used is a serif font. Examine each of the digits given below the text: \[ 8, \, 9, \, 6, \, 0, \, 2, \, 5, \, 1, \, 4, \, 7, \, 3. \] 

Notice that all digits except the digit 2 match the font style of the text above. The digit 2 has a slightly different design, indicating it belongs to a different font style. 

Conclusion: The digit 2 does not belong to the same font as the others.

Approach Solution -2

The words "Electoral Mandate" are set in an old style serif type: fine hairline strokes, a smooth shift from thick to thin along each curve, and small rounded serif terminals. To spot the odd digit out, we can check each of the ten digits against these three traits instead of just comparing shapes side by side.

Look at the digits 8, 9, 6, 0, 5, 1, 4, 7, and 3 first.
Each of these keeps the same soft, tapering stroke and the same rounded serif finish that "Electoral" and "Mandate" use, so all nine match the reference text.
Now look at the digit 2.
Its curve is drawn with a flatter, more even stroke width, and it lacks the calligraphic taper seen on every other digit, so it reads as a plainer, more mechanical design.

Since nine digits pass the check cleanly and only one breaks the pattern, the mismatch is not a matter of opinion. The digit that does not belong to the same font is 2.
