Election Slogans

Cee-Jay-Cee

Came across an election poster for a candidate from the Ballybofey area in Donegal and had to laugh at his election slogan....

"Don't vote for me if you want no change"

He's obviously going with the old reverse psychology angle in his campaign....god love him :rolleyes:

"We have tried the cowboys, now try the Indians"

In Athlone Aengus ORourke ( son of Mary ) has as his slogan "Think Different". wtf is that supposed to mean.
Kevin "Boxer" Moran has as his slogan " Independents are the new Politics".

This slogan was used by FF in 2002. I thought it was on the edge between being a great slogan and a terrible slogan. It came in handy for my college mates and I at the time though. The election campaign was around the time of our final exams. Whenever anyone in the class asked another class mate how they were fixed for X exam, we all used the "alot done, more to do" line!

There is a poster outside my estate that does my head in.. slogan is "Give a chance".

Without Mayor Quimby, Our town would really stink. We wouldn't have a tyre yard, or a mid-size roller rink. We wouldn't have our gallows, or our shiny Big Foot traps. It's not the Mayor's fault that the Stadium collapsed!

Quimby! If you were running for Mayor, he'd vote for you!

Paid for by the Mayor Quimby For Mayor Mayoral Committee


Mayor Quimby supports revolving door prisons. Mayor Quimby even released Sideshow Bob, a man twice convicted of attempted murder. Can you trust a man like Mayor Quimby?

Vote Sideshow Bob For Mayor!

Aye him. Can't say I read it in Apu's accent, more of a confused unsure type of expression.
