FREE ELECTIONS!
•
by Boklevski
We are experiencing a fantastic trend in the eUNL at the moment. A united call for complete and free democracy, where YOUR vote can be cast to what YOU stand for.
The Libertarian Party decided to give a neutral advice in the upcoming elections, stating that “discussions within the party have decided that currently, the best way to defend that liberty (of the United Netherlands) is by principled neutrality, supporting no presidential candidate.”
On the exact opposite site of the political spectrum is the advice of the Worker’s Party. They acknowledge that I might be the candidate that stands the closest to their believes, but state that “this is not a formal endorsement, members have a free vote on election day. May the best candidate win.”
Also, within the LSD and DND, there are voices to balance the power. The DND Org shouts: “RetroX has been suggested as CP candidate. No win is expected but at least the DND is offering an alternative to I&W.” Within LSD, you can read that they “support our BP colleague Boklevski in his effort to become CP, to form a block against the right winged candidates.”
Unfortunately, GLD (or B.A.D.?!) has not made any newer official statement after my candidacy. I would have liked to see their opinion, as they stated earlier about supporting their choice: “We don't expect that you, people of UNL, are all agree with us but we all know it's an hard time for the UNL with the ‘belgian’ issue. That's why BP hasn't candidates.”, and after stating they want a candidate that wants “the best for the UNL, for the belgians and for the dutch.”
There are articles and jokes about I&W having dictatorship. I still believe I&W is not dictatorial, and not a threat to our democracy, as they value it too within their party.
However, I will not deny that democracy is very, if not the most, important in our country. Democracy is being able to give your voice, to say what you think.
Therefore, this article is not just a plea to vote for me.
It’s a plea to vote for the candidate that you think is best suited for the job. Yes, that can mean that you are a BP member, who votes for Mitch Rapp. It can also mean that you are an I&W member, voting for me, or any other candidate.
Just know, that you can do it in eUNL in all freedom. Please use that freedom to choose what YOU want.
LONG LIVE OUR DEMOCRACY!

Couldn't find the vote button, it's somewhere behind that chick...
Wait... Now I see text...
And I'm honnest - I couldn't see that before! 😛
@ Mattio. I know, there were so many url's in that, I only managed to get it working through trial and error.
However, it doesn't matter that much. I know you like the chick better than the article anyway 😛
Excellent read. And you're right, people should just vote for whom they want, and not necessarily the candidate their party suggests. After all, your party has nothing to do with the CP after elections are over.
"It’s a plea to vote for the candidate that you think is best suited for the job"
- Regardless of what party they stand for. I totally agree.
The Chick for CP!!
Or me, a GLD candidate voting for you. 🙂
I think it's good that a party does some things united, but here I stand by my decision.
