Candidate Questionaires for 29 September

I just hope the “Adam08” shirts don’t become a “Vote for Pedro” phenomenon if he loses.

Walking around town having people reminding you of your electoral shortcomings at every corner or while shopping wouldn’t be good for the confidence.

I think there is a touch of the old green eyed monster there in relation to Mark Parton. Adam needs to get his facts straight before he goes shooting his mouth off.

After reading Adam’s website perhaps he should put his efforts into fundraising too so he can have some of the things that the other candidates are working hard to achieve and yet e has te audacity to slam them fo their achievements. Interesting concept that. Does Adam expect to hae everything anded to him on a silver platter?

Based on what he has written in the questionnaire it also appears Adam doesn’t have his finger on the pulse in relation to certain aspects within Canberra either. Perhaps he needs to research a little bit more about who’s who in the zoo.

Anyway, Adam comes across as a 12 year old in a high school playground, wanting everything given to him without lifting a finger for it. Certainly doesn’t get my vote.

And johnboy I thought Mark Parton was an independent candidate, not a celebrity candidate?

WHO TOLD?

That is rather the plan.

If we can reward candidates who engage our readers candidly and honestly we’ll sleep pretty well.

I’m guessing that some of the more obscure candidates who play the RiotACT game (SimCity Challenge, replying to the surveys etc) are probably gunna see a boost in their voting numbers as a result.
Will this mean RiotACT becomes a player in future elections in the region?

Is it too late to change Electorates? Adam is far more vote-worthy than the muppets in Brindabella.

Adam, thank you for your answers to the questions posed. In regard to question 8 about Poker card games;

“From what I’m aware this already exists at the Canberra Casino?”

Canberra Casino offers profit only poker, designed for serious gamblers not social gatherings.

“If the poker tournaments are non-profit (no gambling) then I don’t see a problem with this.”

One of the main themes of poker is to gamble Chips (the Chips have no monetary value though), so I am a bit confused by this answer.

“This would then be no different to any other card game tournaments such as bridge or canasta.”

This is true. So why is there a law in the ACT that explicitly outlaws this card game outside of the Casino and homes? No other State or Territory does.

Now if he’d just promise to ban frangipani stickers on cars he’d have my vote.

My fiancee likes frangipanis. When the revolution comes, YOU ARE THE FIRST TO THE WALL!
