Sabb Elections 2009: Immediate Reaction
I’ll post some post-election stuff up over the weekend, but just as a quick response:
President: I’m glad to say I predicted this one: even down to the places! As I wrote in my Campaign Analysis, I noted DOT was the centrist candidate; not too committee and CV based, but not to focused on comedy either.
Hope my advice helped (particularly if it had an effect)!
Sport: No surprises here; I was dead on. Brand recognition and Incumbents advantage.
Welfare: Substance beat style here. It was close, but I got it wrong.
Education: A little surprised there. I thought the winner’s campaign was a lot weaker than that of the other candidate. It’s likely the posters alone weren’t really the deciding factor.
Don’t have any comments on Comms or Activities, I didn’t pay any attention to them and they were all surprisingly low-key campaigns.
