Languish votes on the Spanish General Election (take 2)

[celedhring]

How good of a chance does Motivational Applewhite have?

None, bar massive upset.

He was leading the polls one year ago, and everybody felt it was a given that he'd win the next election. But he's had a rather torrid year. Corrupt Businessman outplayed him with the motion of non-confidence, and since then the conservatives have been able to rebuild and capitalize the opposition vote. Polls now have him at a distant 3rd place.

He's also, imho, ran a very poor campaign.

Has the Ralph Lauren gigolo said he wants to reconquer Latin America?

Nah, just Gibraltar.

Their international platform is mostly dominated by euroskepticism rather than the usual Spanish Nationalism cliches - this is where they show their bannonite/putinite sockpuppetry, if you ask me. They align themselves with the Visegrad lot (explicitly). Heck, they consider Hungary an example to follow and have very close connections with that piss party in Poland.

Piss party in Poland is very much anti-Putin though.

Its like opening a box of chocolates and finding that someone has scoffed all your favourites.

Voted for the animal rights woman for the usual reasons but also because the dudes are either unpleasant or deeply underwhelming 

[celedhring]

Yeah, the lack of female candidates is still something we have to improve on. We have had several female candidates narrowly losing the primaries for both of Spain's major parties (PSOE and PP), but none has managed to win it yet. Actually, a woman (the former VP) won the conservative primary, but she only got a plurality of delegates and the Gameshow Host defeated her in the convention after getting the support of her rivals.

[celedhring]

The campaign has caught GoT fever! 







The conservatives are also running a "Spain is one kingdom not seven" ad 

[Oexmelin]

This does not bode well for Felipe.

[celedhring]

Looks like Major Applewhite (who doesn't look like Major Applewhite), was happy with his debate performance yesterday.

[Valmy]

He looks much less ginger without the red lighting.

Is that the moustache that ruined the Justice League movie? 

[Syt]

It's from one of the Mission Impossible movies, I think

[celedhring]

They asked him to do reshoots for Justice League, but he was contractually obligated to keep that moustache for Mission Impossible.

So this happened:

Today's the day! Turnout so far is massive, might end up being the highest in our democratic history.

Will be eating my nails in a corner, curled in fetal position.
