Support your presidential bet in the most refreshing way possible with 7-Election 2016, a totally fun way to vote for your presidential bet using specially-designed 7-Eleven Gulp cups for your favourite drinks. 7-Eleven Philippines is back with its fun and unofficial poll for the president’s seat – inspired by 7-Election US which, through the help of 7-Eleven Coffee, accurately predicted the wins of George W. Bush over John Kerry in the 2004 election and Barack Obama over John McCain in the 2008 election.
7-Election lets you exercise your freedom of choice in a fun mock poll for the next president. Anyone can vote, young or adult, and customers also can vote repeatedly. To participate in this Gulp poll, head to any 7-Eleven store, look for the colorful 7-Election cups and choose among the five candidates printed on the cups – People’s Reform Party leader Miriam Defensor Santiago, independent candidate Grace Poe, Liberal Party standard-bearer Mar Roxas, PDP-Laban presidentiable Rodrigo Duterte, and United Nationalist Alliance bet Jejomar Binay. But, if you’re one of the many who are still undecided, you may also choose the cup that says, well, “Undecided.”
After choosing the cup that represents your chosen presidentiable, get your preferred drink from the vending machine and receive your official receipt at the counter to confirm who you voted for. Results are accessible to anyone. Customers can view the results in stores and the updated votes every Friday or they can visit www.7-election.com.ph for regular updates.
The 7-Election cups started last March 23 and the 7 Election updated leader board showed Mayor Rodrigo Duterte in the top rank followed by “Undecided” – which provided a good insight since 14 percent are undecided – meaning the candidates have to work harder to convince the voters, said 7-Eleven’s division head for marketing communication, Emmanuel Lee Esguerra, who disclosed that the mock poll will end a week before the actual election.
Now, if you’re serious about campaigning for your next president, and since these cups are Instagram-worthy, you can actually do your own campaigning by sharing your chosen cups on IG using the hashtag #7Election.
