Is this a bit over the top?

DisneyFan25863 · 11-08-2005, 10:18 PM

So yeah...I'm running for ASB Vice President at my school...and I figured...hey...why not use my mad skillz, right? While everyone else is making flyers and handing out buttons, I've decided to focus my campaign on the internet through http://votesean.org/. While I still have flyers and stickers and so on, this will be my primary source of votes. What do you think? Any campaign advice? I have until next Wednesday!

Thanks
Sean

uh - you're asking people you met on the internet, don't you think our opinions might be a bit - I don't know - skewed?

To be honest, I never really thought of that. Good point though.

I think it looks cool, but will it work??????? High School was a long time ago.

I do thing you need to hand out something with the URL on it.

I think you need to have a catchy phrase like Herron the Baron! Or you could give out condoms or something like that! Just a thought, but not reary!

I noticed a rather conspicuous lack of references to your Disney geekery.

Oh, wait- you're trying to win, right?

Looks cool to me, DF- good luck!!!

Take a look at the picture on the about page

As for getting the name out, I'm printing up 300 flyers and bought 3 packs of "fun size" candy to give out. All the flyers have the url on them, as well as the posters I'm making for around campus. Not to mention myspace

As for condoms...maybe when I have nothing to loose

I like Herron the Baron though...maybe I can use that for my Euro project....

I think it's great. It shows that you're very serious about being elected and that you're smart putting together your own webpage. I think this will work. Make sure all of your posters and buttons refer to the webpage to get people looking at it.
I think if you put a lot of pictures on your website with you standing next to your classmate voters that will get people to vote for you. Appeal to their vanity.

'Did you see your picture on my website?' etc...
