Ahmadinejad Bribes Voters with Israeli Oranges
Following the hand out of cash in envelopes to journalists and free potato handouts to potential voters by Ahmadinejad's election camp, the efforts to buy votes with more hand outs was intensified to help re-elect Ahmadinejad.
In another vote bribing stunt, Ahmadinejad's camp announced free orange handouts to people when Ahmadinejad was due to speak in the poor district of Islamshahr. Of course the stunt worked and as predicted pulled in large crowds who would not miss the opportunity of getting fresh juicy oranges for free. There was however one problem. The oranges were Israeli oranges with obvious 'Jaffa' labels still on them!
