I have no justification for that statement. I thought someone else had mentioned it with some reason behind it that made sense but looking back I can't find it. It just looks like Kael made a target of himself, which I can sympathize with.

I'm saying it is
possible that there could be a traitor among us. And I've guessed at who (in-game terms) that traitor might be - I hope that only one of those listed above is a traitor or has a traitor's win condition that is independent of a Nazgul win. Given what I know of the story of Lord of the Rings their motivation(s) for wanting the Ring diverge with Sauron wanting to get the Ring. That's just what makes sense to me. Adamitar is a tricksie one, though.

We can all go round and round with what makes sense.
Why would a Nazgul want to be mayor? The obvious answer is to have extra pockets to search, of course. But this also paints a target on their back. As the bodies from lyncings and killings pile up and none of them are mayor one of us enterprising and capable Hobbits would surely watch what the Mayor does at night thus ending that terrible reign.
Why wouldn't a Nazgul want to be mayor? I would think it would be easier to remain hidden and thus harder to detect by either daytime lyncings or night time searching. They could remain free to kill as they wish at night and even then target our good Mayor should we sadly lynch one of our own.
The first is not without its merits but the second has my favor.
