7-Elections

7-Eleven is an international chain of convenience stores which known for their Slurpee, a partially frozen beverage and Big Gulp, as the name implies drinks served large cups. Yesterday, 7-Eleven Philippines introduced their 7-Elections Presidential Gulp cups. I remember back in 2008, during the U.S. Presidential elections, 7-Eleven rolled out their 7-Elections Presidential coffee cups. Blue coffee cups for U.S. President Barrack Obama and red coffee cups for John McCain. As we know, blue and red are Republican and Democrat colors, respectively.

In line with our Philippine National Elections on May 2010, 7-Eleven Philippines launches their 7-Elections, an unofficial customer poll. Gulp drinkers simply choose their candidate based on the color of cups. Yellow for Noynoy Aquino, blue for Dick Gordon, orange for Manny Villar, red for Joseph Estrada, green for Gilbert Teodoro and multi-colored cup are shared by Nick Acosta, Jamby Madrigal, Eddie Villanueva, JC de los Reyes, Vetellano Acosta and for abstain or undecided voters. It may seem a bit biased for the 5 candidates to share just one cup and share it again with undecided ones. I dunno but something just don’t fit.

How does it work? Once you’ve chosen your candidate cup, the 7-Eleven cashier will scan the bar code for your vote to be counted. Since 7-Eleven is serving the public 24 by 7, anyone can join this campaign, even non-registered voters. According to the 7-Election representative, this activity will run until May 4, 2010 and promised the public that 7-Eleven swore that they will not run out of 7-Election cups. Results will be published online at wwww.7-elections.com.ph.
