Politics is getting hot over here. There have been over 100 political

Things are not too bad here, one of the local politicians committed
suicide today, he shot himself in the head three times.

Three days until the election is three days away and I am lying low,

Most of the news is blocked so I get most of my news from the BBC/CNN TV
and radio plus online news from the local papers.
