Election fever

Elections are coming up – Sunday is the big day! I’m looking forward to having it all over. Apart from all the parades and music broadcasted over loudspeakers, the municipality where I work is looking a little empty these days with many of my colleagues ‘working’ outside the office to promote the re-election of the current mayor.

Stephen and I were offered free popcorn sponsored by a local candidate tonight.

That’s me being handed the popcorn outside the election campaign office. We are promised 2 days of quiet leading up to the elections as there is a ban on public campaigning as of tomorrow.

We’ll do our best to make the most of our tasty bribe !
