Conquer Club

For a week before the Finland's Parliament Elections, I was running an advertisement for the Pirate Party, but they failed the election.

This week, I ran a paid advertisement for the President of Kazakhstan, and he won a landslide victory.

This tells me that the average CCer isn't interested in Internet Freedom or Scandanavia, but rather enjoys Soviet Union one-horse races.

This is a tough demographic to reach, so we now know where to target ads.

We are big nazarbayev fans in here, thought you knew. When can we vote for Turkmenistan elections? Their dictator is my favorite! Although the previous one was at least as cool.

Even though Palikot is one of my favorites, that clickbait face wins it.

WTF who calls their child Magdalena in this day and age.

Best one-night stand I ever had was with a Magdalena! It's a wonderful name in my books!

So it seems that fear of Russia has trumped my marketing campaign.

Ethiopia is the perfect country to approach next, since one party controls 99% of the parliament.

While the Ethiopian People's Revolutionary Democratic Front is the party that lines up with CC's values the most, I am hoping to subvert a few dissatisfied Ethiopian voters.

Channeling my inner Stockwell Day:

Ultimately right wing and old as the hills.

I love the name of Denmark's Red-Green party. Time for separatist Greenland!

Incidentally, Greenlanders are one of 3 non-Canadian nations that do not need a passport to fly into Canada. The others are United States and that little French island.

Denmark has a really interesting proportional representation system:

Any chance you could provide us with a short version? I'm not reading 42 pages.

Lately I'm feeling a strong "aging Pokefreak" influence on here...

You live closer to Denmark than I do.
Read section 1.2 on page 6 for the overview version. That's only 4 pages.

Well that does seem quite unique, though only possible in a country where regional seperatism isn't strong enough. In Belgium(wallons vs flemmings) and in Canada(french canadians vs british canadians) this system would be slightly problematic considering the protection of minority populations.
