help the Catalans not vote!

ipsiphi | 15.11.2003 12:47 | Social Struggles

Tomorrow the elections for the Presidency of the Catalan Generalitat will be held in Spain. The Catalan Generalitat was re-instated in the 1970s under the current statute that binds Spain.
Voters and non voters non resident in Catalonia had till Nov 6th to pass their judgement by postal means. Tomorrow the voters and non voters of Catalonia get to choose.

I do not like thee Doctor Snell...
I do not like thee Doctor Snell...


Interestingly CSOA autonomous centre Les Naus due it's eviction last Friday 7th of November and still stands "unevicted", it is thought that the politicians are waiting till after the election.  http://www.sindominio.net/lesnaus/
Hmmm. Isn't that curious, the political parties that gain their power from elections that never count the votes or non-votes of all resident in any place have decided to postpone the eviction of a squatted arts space focus to many anarchists and "non-voters" just in case other "voters" change how they "vote" tomorrow.

Andorra indymedia has put together a little electronic game, that you can play from the comfort of your internet portal, and vote for all the candidates who are offering themselves tomorrow:

 http://www.votaminutil.org/

the faces and people who would be leaders of the richest near federal region of Spain whose capital is Barcelona rated "the number one place to live and do corporate business" are:
(from left to right)

Mr. Maragall. PSC. socialist. just like Blair.
Mas. CiU. appointed as successor to the man who has chaired the gov. for 23 years.
Mr. Mas looks like F.B.I. agent norbert from the Furry Freak Brothers.
Mr. Pique he's "Aznar's man in Catalonia, and is well vampire like".
Mr. Josep-Lluís Carod-Rovira Catalan Republican, the Spanish locked him up for being a Catalan Republican years ago. But like they asked the Gestapo to hand back the President in exile and then executed him in the 1940s. (That's history for you).
Mr. Joan Saura: Green marxist, telling everyone to "vote the change of must". oh yes.

there are also a variety of other candidates the smaller green party has allied with the Socialists and their man looked sort of lonely yesterday at his campaign hut. I offered him a roasted chestnut but he said "no", didn't even smile. A nasty regular appearance by "more immigration control, send everyone home and empty their pockets before they fo" candidate will pick up votes mostly at the border towns and marginalised areas.
(you do not get the option of playing a vote for either of them)
and the last man in the photos is the current president of Andorra Mr. M. Marc Forne Molne. (socialist)
Just so you can recognise him, should he come on a state visit or something.

I hope I have not in any way challenged the democratic process or influenced the outcome of the eviction of my local autonomous squatted arts and community centre.

hmmm.
treading on glass eh?

Yes VOTE FOR THEM ALL.
right now:
