Vote 4 me: Candidates start SMS campaign
Political parties have hit a hi-tech campaign in the December 1st assembly election in Delhi seeking votes through SMS and e-mail, reports Sify News. "The mobile phone has come handy for candidates to reach executives, managers, bureaucrats, homemakers and senior citizens at a personal level. ''Seeking vote through an SMS is like paying a visit as today the cell phone has almost become a part of one's body,'' says Delhi Congress' campaign committee chairman Vishwa Bandhu Gupta". Some innovative ideas on how out to campaign by SMS: -- A party symbol 'hand' as a screen saver in a mobile phone in a last-minute effort to get the voter's attention. -- The photo of a candidate can also accompany a 'vote for me' plea, with MMS. |
