First day of campaigning!

It was the first day of campaining but it was a slow start for the candidates! We did go to a meeting held by the reformist camp in the morning, but on my way I saw no posters for the elections. I was surprised to hear that posters would only be seen days after the first day of campaining!
In the evening, a fairly large gathering for the imcumbent and a rally in the park for the opposition were two events we covered and I finally managed to get a story on board. Phew... I didn't know I would run into trouble to be able to film about election events on the first day of campaining!



bunch of people at the incumbent's rally!


and many people in the streets for the opponent!

PS
Now I'm so used to seeing the morning scenery from my room... sleeping in midnight and waking up again to work until early morning...

it was already quite bright at 6:13AM!
