I was a candidate during the 2011 elections and got 900 votes as my "comparison number", the system is geared such that if you work for a party the one who gets most votes for that party in that region gets all the votes, the second guy gets half and so on, so I got 114 votes personally and 900 as my comparison number, we all go by the comparison number as the real number.
Anyway, long story short, Im thinking of signing up for elections again, id need 15.000 votes but thats not going to happen, I had an election budget of 900 and got 900 votes so i get a fairly good return for my money but reality is that i would need more votes than I have any realistic chance of getting the funding for so im pretty much stuck. BUT, I miss the work of dealing with people and listening to their complaints and offering my solutions, I feel like its time for me to make that shot again, the elections just ended so I have 4 years now to build up my support and base and go for it. Ill be flamed insanely hard for my stances on several issues ranging from lowering the voting age, putting the age of consent, criminal responsibility and elections into the same age, saying that tourists should have the right to vote, giving politicians the right to lie and in general being the odd man out.
So feel free to ask me questions here about the whole thing, I doubt it makes much sense for me in my current mental state to try but it would give me something real to do, I could get in touch with my old party and ask if they have an opening or start contacting the leading parties and see how they would like me. The job would be easy to do but hard work in that its not a difficult, just a repetitive task, I would need to go campaign in the streets, fill out election machines online and do a few things like that.
