DAYS PASSED: 4
SIDE: WINNER'S

A couple of days passed and both people and politicians cannot stop talking about the elections. don't blame them, since what else is there anything to talk about around here /lots/? i confess that even i had a hard time trying to stay away from all that /but i voted/, but most of the time i could steer away from hard-boiled conversations where one side tries to defend what they lost, and the other beats its chest about the victory. I had no clue who is was gonna vote for, but I had a 10min walk to the polling station to make up my mind. Since my last post, election results have not changed much:

PDK is still leading by a 12% margin over LDK;
AKR is waiting in line for that invitation to form a government;
ORA has been sent to the emergency room for some finger-nail and hair implants.

But, that's how people voted. Now, a lot of people ask me who did i vote for /most of the people here tend to ask that question and they tell you who they voted for even if the question is not asked to them/. It was strange because in the beginning i did not want to vote > i only changed my mind when i figured that i could inflict more damage if i voted, than if i did not vote. This time round, people that are around me, felt more joyous, more inclined to tell that they voted PDK, and some were just still shocked about ORA's performance. This is the first time after 8 years, that people punished the big guy for not doing what they are supposed to do. Now again, a lot of people say that there is not a clear line that distinguishes the previous winners (LDK), to the new ones (PDK), and that might be true, but the previous party led the /country/ for 8 years and we were not bathing in the things they promised.

i'm kind of curious what the new government will do differently from the last one, but if they under-perform or fail to keep the promises, well, i just hope that people will not vote for them. no matter what party they belong to.
