The Day After
The election is over, It
was a rough one, one of
t h e bitterest in history
and also the most closely
fought. The results are
disappointing to some
people, but quite satisfac
tory to those who were
victorious at the polls.
With the candidates’ pre
occupation with mudshng
ing and character assassi
nation,there was not much
timefor them to discuss
the important issues of the
day.
The community returns
to normal after several
hectic weeks. We hope it
will not settle down lo
complacency. ,Althouih
t b ere was muchin the
campaign to deplore,there
was also much that could
be applauded. For the
first time certain seg
ments of the %Opulation
which held themselves
aloof from public affairs
came out en masse to
&articipate in the election,
ot only did they votein
large numbers, but they
also got the courage to
come out as candidates.
Let us hope that this inter
est will continue. The thing
to do is not to wait until an
other electior rolls around to
show interest. Candidates with
similar interests and views
shou d maintain their interest
by forming political groups
and checking on the activities
of each other. Getting excited
and interested for a few
weeks every two years is not
enough.
