"Cyprus question tops electioneering debates
22/01/2008
Nicosia, Jan 22 (CNA) – As election day draws nearer, presidential candidates, their associates and supporters intensify their efforts, with opinion polls, either in the print or the electronic media, announcing results that are too close to call.
The purpose of the exercise, for at least the main three candidates, is to secure “a ticket” for the run off election on February 24, as it seems highly unlikely for any of them to be elected on February 17. Though arguments are put forward against each other, adjectives attributed, discussions turning lively, everybody seems to be on guard not to alienate others, just in case they would have to consult with them and seek their vote in their bid for the presidency."
