| Message | I wonder why we always get such a low turnout. |

| Message | Why do you want to destroy Kafuristan's reputation as a tolerant nation by banning religion? It violates freedom of speech and is no better than the totalitarian policies of the Sect of the Green Moon. Do you really want to return to their record of trampling on human rights? |

| Message | Yes. At least in regards to religion. |

| Message | I assume turnout is low because our parties positions are pretty similar. Don't know why most of the people that get out to vote, vote for me. More dedicated I guess. |

| Message | Interestingly when the turnout is low, there are more votes for you. Must be more militant I suppose. ;-) |
