is what the campaigning process has been reduced to. the amount of posters printed on material which i can only hope is re-cycleable is unbelieveable! where do they get all that money?? (duh)
i wonder where are all these people all those years before election? why can't they make their appearance earlier? start serving the people (if that is their real intention) earlier?
if i am serious about being a candidate and making politics my career, if i am serious about serving the people and the country, i suppose i would have "mingled" earlier. started helping the people earlier (no matter how small the deed). make known my stand on the many issues much earlier. people are not blind.
the money going to the posters could have been more wisely spent. imagine winning the seat without a single poster?! imagine winning because the people have faith in you and your ability to lead. imagine winning because the people want you to win and not because they have no other choice!? what an honour that would be...
i think it is sad if on election day, votes are casted due to the number of posters hanging on the trees. if people standing in the booth don't have a single clue who the people listed on the paper are. if casting is done at the toss of a coin...
