Polling Stations Revamped Into Fast-Fashion Outlets: Campaign Pledges 'Discarded After One Season,' Exit Features Mortgage-Waiver Gacha
To increase voter turnout and reduce election costs, the Central Election Administration Committee announced on the 3rd a new system that fully outsources polling station operations to major discount apparel chain 'VOTE & LOW'. To cut costs, voting slips have been replaced with cheap thermal receipt paper, and the winning candidate's campaign pledges are designed as a 'one-season spec' where the printed text physically disappears within a few days. The biggest attraction, a 'Full Mortgage Waiver Gacha' machine set up at the exit, drew a queue of thousands under freezing skies, blending praise and screams as the ultimate form of populism. Note that the losing capsules in the gacha apply an 'immediate tax hike.'
