It seems you are mixing the order how to use if–elif–else.

The following is quoted from
if, elif and else.. priority and chains (I recommend reading it fully):

else is the catch-all after all the if and elif statements were False. Putting it in the middle would be a syntax error.

To demonstrate how the if–elif–else blocks work:

if False:
    print 'first'
elif True:
    print 'second'
elif True:
    print 'third' "
