Election Frenzy

So who are you going to vote for? That's the first question people ask you these days :D It has become a spontaneous reaction to be curious about other people's choice of a national leader in the upcoming elections. The news channels are flooded with election updates and paid campaigns. The election campaigns of some political parties are so corny and funny that I crack up with laughter when I see them! Especially the one that plays the Batman theme in the background ;) I don't know about you but honestly, in my 12 years of being able to vote...this is the first time I shall be stepping into a polling booth to cast a vote!!! That's a shame I know...but seriously I never felt inclined to choose between any of the seasoned politicians who used to be running for power. I just didn't want to waste time and effort in voting for those political parties that have been doing the same stuff over and over again..and have been getting richer and bigger in doing that same stuff :p  

This time it's a bit different, because we have a new candidate available in the political line-up and that is Imran Khan. His party Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf, may be a budding one but it is a platform for some of the most seasoned politicians (who do not have such a shady past) and some of the most influential people of our country..people who do not need to be in politics but are there just because they also want to be part of the change. The winds of change are blowing this time because the entire population is fed up of the failure of past governments to address any of the problems that have plagued the nation for so long. This is not just about Imran Khan but the people do need something different and something new from their leaders. The same old false promises are not going to work since people are bored of them...or so it seems. What will you do this time?
