Mr Sidibeh Thanks for your correction! Vote apathy has never been a tradition in The Gambia. Even the 1982 General Elections which was held during a STATE OF EMERGENCY had a larger turnout than this one. Its either these votes were bought or that voters were intimidated.

I am just discussing the same issue with a friend on the phone! Why have so many voters "stayed home" in a country were voter apathy is definitely no tradition??? sidibeh いいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいい To unsubscribe/subscribe or view archives of postings, go to the Gambia-L Web interface at: http://listserv.icors.org/archives/gambia-l.html To Search in the Gambia-L archives, go to: http://listserv.icors.org/SCRIPTS/WA-ICORS.EXE?S1=gambia-l To contact the List Management, please send an e-mail to: [log in to unmask] いいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいいい --------------------------------- All new Yahoo!
