If Statement not working...Why?

[Milfredo]

Here is a snippet of code and what it produces. I don't understand what is going on.

def complete_form():
	
	horses_names = []
	for i, var in enumerate(scratched):    
		scratched_list.append(var.get())   	
		
	
	for a in range(len(scratched_list)):
		if scratched_list[a] == 'True':
			print(horses_name[a])
		else:
			print(scratched_list[a])

Here is what it prints out. As you can see there is one condition that is True, but the code doesn't seem to recognize it. I don't know why. Where scratched_list[a] == 'True' horses name should appear, but I get 'True' instead.

$ python processing.py
False

True
