Here on Thassos they have five candidates. They are not necessarily tied to a specific party, whoever put up this poster though must come from the kke party, a party that, as someone with a bit of irony explained to me, is a sovjet friendly party. And then he pointed out that there is no Sovjet Union any longer, but still Greece have a sovjetfriendly party...
The sign read according to Google translate: The indignation be made pursuant voted folk alliance.(But I know it also says something about power because the word "δυναμη- dynami" is in there.)
The weekend is a big happening for the people. Everyone returns to their homecounty to vote. The children are off school Friday and Monday because the building is needed for the election. And on the day of the election everyone is dressed up and spending time at the school to meet with one another and have a nice chat. This is where people come to meet. And it's also a day when all the tavernas and coffee places are making good busines.
Waiting in line to take hold of their civil rights.
Orange box for local election and blue box for regional election.
