IT’S THE FINAL COUNTDOWN! For one last time The Elections Show made a mockery of 6 more candidates. Not just any candidates. The Big Dogs.
The Presidential Candidates.

At 6pm, we took to the air and welcomed Mandour Jr, Tom Hicks, Johnny Lawrence, Katie Williams, Harry Copson, James Potts, and, yup, that’s it. Callum Morris was “busy”, apparently.

So let’s meet them. Obviously, we weren’t gonna just have a jolly ole’ chat. We set the mood, had a bit of karaoke and Ms Ellie McWilliam decided to give a certain candidate a piece of her mind…

Once that was sorted, it was time to find out what our resident Northerner got up to today. He cornered Politics lecturer, Stuart Fox, to find out, what is voting?!

The Elections Show - Meet the Education Candidates

Education Candidates... Don't they look excited?!?Education Candidates... Don't they look excited?!?

Two down, TWO DAYS TO GO! Today, URN decided to teach the Education candidates, Greg Timms, Alex Turner, Adam BK, Raff and Paulina, how we do things on The Elections show.

As usual, before things really kicked off, we had to consult Mr Will Jowett to find out, what IS winning?!

Next, it was the turn of the candidates. So who are they?! And more importantly, what would their pornstar names be?

These lot were then put to the test when it came to the Biggest Twit. As soon as we mentioned that we’d been snooping, it’s safe to say that they looked rather worried.

And then things took a turn for the worst… It involved marshmallows (sliced soggy apples for the vegan) and some incredibly taxing GCSE Bitesize questions. Have a listen to the madness…

Tomorrow’s the BIG one… El Presidente!
