This week at Extension, we learnt about the Elections. We also got to make our billboards!! On Saturday, the Elections were on! Unfortunately, Labour didn't win. I did a billboard for the party I was studying which was Labour.
Labour is the longest running parliamentary party in New Zealand. Peter Fraser a former leader of Labour, made enrollment free at University in Aoteroa! I recommend you should have voted for Labour.
I predicted that National was going to win, which they DID!! I voted for Labour because they have a good policy and I think that they will stick to it! The two most important the things about the Elections is the MMP AND First Past the post. The meaning of MMP stands for Mixed Members Proportional. This is a voting system that was actually used the German Bundestag which is the National Parliament of the Federal Republic of Germany. On the other hand, First Past the Post, or FPP, is actually a voting method. It is when a person votes for the Candidate that he or she votes for next to the Candidate. The Candidate with the most votes WINS!!$$............................... but the other votes don't matter!!
Hi Jonita. I like your billboard that you made in exstension. I made my own billboard but I didn't use a real party's name. Did you enjoy making them? I did.
