It is nearly over. The election campaigning that feels like it has been going on for 3 years may finish tomorrow. In the last 24 hours has seen one leader stand up and another stay quiet. Though all the polls and predictions point to Liberals, I cast my thoughts back to the 1993 Hewson-led Coalition who had the polls on their side but lost in the end.
The last 24 hours for me has actually made me realise who I don't want to win and therefore who I will vote against tomorrow.
This article I found really kinda summed up the election well.
PLEASE dear readers, vote for policy and not personalities!!!
Probably my last post til the election, I want to share this lovely poem by a friend of a friend of a friend (I think), a Mr Jason Forbes. I thought it was appropriate!
Twas the night before voting
when all through the house
All were wondering
WHO THE HECK AM I GOING TO VOTE FOR??
including the mouse!
Dad considered the candidates,
the greedy and fair.
While mum just wanted the best childcare.
The idea of family
could see a new day
The prospect of marriage,
now free and gay!
Present leaders showed
as servants to themselves,
while arrogance abounded
their ignorance observed!!
The sick and disabled
seeing the end of their night
With te NDIC
to take care of their plight.
While the biblical faithful
prayed and sat tight
Looking only to Jesus
to come and make things right!!
