Election Day is getting closer


The election is two weeks from today, and all of the streets are lined with an amazing number of campaign signs.  They are everywhere!  And with 36 or more political parties, you can see why...
Nobody really knows how the election will turn out.  All of the polls indicate that the party headed by the former prime minister's sister will win the most seats, but no one is sure...



On of the most significant minority parties has taken an unusual tactic... they are telling their supporters to vote "no," as in, "None of these parties and candidates is acceptable to me."  The sign below show caricatures of former prime minister Thaksin on the left, and current PM Abhisit on the right.
