Independent election watchdog ATIDE, addressed voters through a video to raise awareness of the consequences of vote buying and its impact on the integrity of the electoral process.
“Who buys your vote and pays you a dinar, tomorrow will take your livelihood with two million dinars. Who buys your vote is a thief, a cheater, a traitor. He doesn’t care about you, about Tunisia, about the children’s dreams. He doesn’t care about the blood of martyrs. He will take your vote and leave you behind.”
Montassar Souissi, ATIDE member, reiterated his organization’s concerns regarding election boycotting and the pivotal role of awareness campaigns in reminding citizens of the importance of their votes.
“There is an aversion toward elections among the youth. We want to reach the marginalized groups like youth and women in rural areas,” Souissi Told Tunisia Live.
