count down to the 20th March

15 days to go to the SA election.

David McCabe and I are fulltime campaigning at the minute. There's a great deal of organising to be done. The mainstream media have been ignoring us. The Independent Weekly posted a 30 second clip on youtube recently which was appreciated. I'm beginning to wonder if I don't need to run naked down Rundle Mall to get some attention! Maybe I should start one of those blogs: Donate here if you DONT want Paul to do a nudie run!

I was completely outclassed the other day by the DLP future member for Harltey, Mark Freer's new blog. Take a look. A great effort from a great candidate. http://mark4hartley.wordpress.com/ And there's some great music courtesy of Mark's recordings!

Mark learnt today that he's in the 'donkey' position ont he Hartley ballot paper (number one). Not a reflection on Mark's looks nor physique at all! Go Mark!

In the Upper House, the DLP is box 'O' which is in the second row above the line and the third position from the left (no ideological reflection). We're directly below the ALP which is precisely the reverse of Mark's ticket positin in Hartley.

I really wonder what effect it will have upon voters when they're given the white ballot paper with so many boxes to choose from. Let your friends know, the simple way out of the dilemma is to place a '1' in the 'O' box for the DLP.

Remember folks, there are very serious and might I say diabolical consequences afoot for this state at this election. It is imperative that we make this vote count on euthanasia - all our votes. As David pointed out today: Of the 23 Parties/Groups contesting the upper house, 7 are Pro-euthanasia, 13 have no interest either way and 3 are anti-euthanasia.



This does not include a further 12 candidates who are standing as independents. The numbers are against us!!!!
