Today, the 3rd thursday of the month, 17th april took plave the prefectorial and house elections in the ISM senior block. And trust me elections are bad, screaming, cheating, politics, betrayals, laughters,tears, promises( fake or real doesnt matter), and more than all that fights. Its a game which the ones who have so called "power" or "status" or "rep" play...... the campaingners... the contestants ... it is their game. which makes the day so eventful for the neutral. and crazy for the campaigners and contestants. Lets take a small look at how the elections went for the 12th graders as they have the captains coming from them :
Blue house Angad supposedly gave a superb speech with his very good speaking techniques, and to add to that, his friends and the audience who were completely screaming out their asses for him. All thanks to his "popular" friends, but nevertheless it worked.. the 10ths and 11ths did vote for him. and everything went jolly for him... then it was divya's chance, who had quite a good speech and maybe many friends and voters. But there was no much help from the audience. She still managed to prove as a competition to Angad who left his council batch for the blue house. So overall... was gr8 for Angad.... ok ok for divya.... poor blue house people.... they shouted the most of all the houses.
Green house 7 contestants at first, which got reduced to 5, and then 4. Of those, cricketer vignesh came and gave an exhilirating speech getting some support from the audience, though it was too short and he wasnt convincing enough, as all he did was shout. but eventually he did manage some votes all due to his shouting skills. Then came Disha, who was pretty confident, had to face a crowd which was shouting for green house as they couldnt bear blue house shouting themselves. even then she managed to be aggressive enough and laid down a very good speech, though it went too long. and after a certain moment got repititive, she still had lotta audience support and a well made speech, then was saif's chance, who was subject to massive campaigning due to his friends. but then screwed up everything by a poor speech, could be crowd fear, or the effect of a good disha speech, or maybe jus luck, that his speech went haywire changing his votes to the other contestants. Last was Darpan. who had a lot of 10th support, and gave a perfect speech. kudos to that, an amazing speech, perfect timing, perfect tone, and support from the audience. which gained him a lot of votes. Its a tough call for this house.. and noone knos whos the winner.
Yellow house: Yellow house, a house noone cared of much especially in consideration of the "in" crowd of ISM as the last day of the elections, that is on wednesday, Surbhi Jhavar had to take back her application as her resignation from the council wasnt accepted. So all hype about yellow house crashed and the elections turned out to be so boring that even the yellow house wasnt interested. The two members contesting were Qasim and Shalaka, none of them as popular as Surbhi, which was seen when both the contestants had to face a crowd who was shouting " we want surbhi ". Disappointed both of the members still gave their speeches. Shalaka a good enough speaker had no much problem in her kind of ok-ok speech. Her speech still had some meaning, Qasim on the other hand looked as if he stood for fun, no great speech no appeal, he himself doesnt want to win, thats what the crowds felt. But still he did give competition to shalaka due to the anti shalaka members of yellow house who would make anyone the captain other than shalaka, even if it was qasim. Noone knows the result, though a lotta people eye shalaka as the winner. The most dull and boring elections this year were the yellow ones. A lot were also reported to give invalids. Due to lack of interest. Lets hope the fate of yellow house for the final trophy doesnt be the same as this.

Red House: The winner since so many years, now had an election which too wasnt too exciting. 3 contestants electing, Sachin Chaval, chintan Vyas, and Abigail Lobo. Lets take a closer look at what happen, first came abigail, who had a pretty good speech, and had some girl support but eventually a lotta anti abigail people screamed against her which made her inaudible and the speech was innefictive. Her posters too ended up getting thrown here and there, though she had a lotta campaigning by her friends but eventually everything didnt work as it should have for her. On the whole a below average election campaine fr her. next came sachin, who had a massive audience support, but a disastrously small and useless speech, but the audience support gave him everything he may have needed, the brightest possible winner, amazing audience support and brilliant campaigning. Loadsa screaming and posters did him a lot good. Next came Chintan who forgot his speech half way, he mugged everything and this blunder caused him a lotta embarresment as people ended up laughing. He had no great screaming, no one shouted for him or against him, and he ended with a traumatizing speech and a poor election campaigne. Disappointed in himself as he had done a lot for campaining. Maybe if he had a better speech he would prove harmful to sachin but it dint seem as if he was prepared to battle. High chances for sachin to win.
main campaingers Abigail - Divya, Pooja, Nitya and the girls Sachin - Sajid, Angad, Rajus Chintan - Darpan, Aditya

well... its not popularity, its the wrong term, divya is equally popular in angad's case, but angad has way more powerful friends. If u remove 2 ppl from blue house stands, would divyas speech have gone the same way ? Would Angad have so much cheering? he may hav had cheering? but on such a massive scale ? just imagine, without just 2-3 blue house members. Think of abigail and sachin, abigail knows more crowd than him even though for the wrong reasons. Its just the image these people give, and the fights they choose to battle and thr friend support they have, meaning who has a stronger back up @!!@
Nice report about the elections :) ! I don't even know half the people who are standing for the it but according to what I hear and read it seems like people taking them a bit TOO seriously and personally! Sounds pretty bad.. It's not like OUR elections were pretty clean either ;) there was a lot of bullying and MANY fights.. Looks like ISM elections are NEVER going to be uneventful!
