Election candidates resort to different gimmicks to get the attention of potential voters. They engage in various publicity stunts such as hiring singers and dancers as front during campaign sortie. Candidates also give out colorful items like promo keychains for easy recall. I think these campaign device will work well or appeal to recipients if they don’t display images of candidates as big as the giveaway item. Personally, I would ignore items like that if I receive one. Also, the name of candidates should be well placed so the items will not look cheap. People want something pleasing to the eye or fashionable (or wearable if it is a shirt or something). At the end of the day, these items will no longer matter to voters when they are decided whom to vote for. What is important is that candidates were able to reach out to voters and get them to understand their message (election platform) across. I hope everyone will decide and vote on May 10 according to the dictates of their conscience.
