….the question that comes to mind watching the police load up the ballot boxes after the Gagaifomauga 2 by-elections last Saturday, is whether this will be our very last one.
Is this going to run out what is left of the current term of Government before the general elections in about 3-years time?
With all the divisions that continues to linger in our political landscape, don’t bet your week’s wages on this being the very very last one.
We have had a lot of by-elections since our general elections in April of 2021 and surely our police and electoral officers would be glad not to see or be around anymore ballot boxes for a while.
Rushing around polling booths maybe fun when the excitement of the elections is on but like everything else the drama starts to become ordinary.
Soon it just fades off and turns into tedious work going through the repeated process. Sorry folks but that is the problem with being human. We were not made 100 per cent perfect.
