The Internet is a first step. Now we all know that nothing is really free. You and I, of course. It should have been nipped in the bud. The longer we wait, the harder it will be.
Politicians are consistent only in the application of double standards.
Fourteen percent of the vote is quite an achievement, when one considers the handicap he endured. In a system of proportional representation, this could have translated to a seat on city council. Despite a court-imposed gag order which forbade him from talking to the media, he made sure that everyone in his ward received his election pamphlet. So, I believe that he received a vote which is fairly reflective of the population at large. I'm sure no one was misled or ignorant as to who they were voting for.
