Chapter 40 - Election: Here we go

" Politics is a dirty game, no it is not, it's the people who practice dirty politics that make it a dirt game"

If you don't agree with the above statement, go and make your statement in your own story.

The campaign season for electing the school student bodies is finally here. Each candidate is busy with a different campaign strategy.

My chums and I decided to go cheap since we don't have lots of money to fund my election theme. Yes, you heard it right we are a cheapskate. The little money we gathered came from our allowances. My friends are amazing they donated money to support my campaign, well actually they contributed five dollars to support my crusade with additional words that say, "you better win or we are going to strangle you in their mischief tone of voice". See how charming my friends are. A true buddies indeed.

After brainstorming, we formulated the following methods called "go cheap". I know, the name of our strategies sounds frugal but we are trying to run a campaign here that involves less money and is much better if no money is involved at all!

So what is the project "go cheap"? It's a scheme that was invented by me, Marjorie, Victoria, and Angel. It involves making fliers from a used paper. We rummage to our collection of old test papers, essays, notes, etc and if the other side of the paper is not used then we separately collected it. We divided it into four parts and used our color pens to write, vote for Mardin she used to recycle paper for this campaign just turn over this flier for proof.

Project go cheap involves talking with the different groups, clubs, and organizations of students in the school. This is the hard part of the undertaking because you need to tell the people your platform or plans for the good of the students. The hardest part is to promise them what they want to hear. Like they demand a change for more days not wearing a uniform and need to agree of course but I try my best to be clever with my promise by saying " If I win I will change the number of days for students not wearing and for that, I need to negotiate with the uniform policy people". Hey, don't judge me for being smart, I need to win this election or my friends gonna choke me. Besides I am trying my best to win it with honesty and integrity!
