Lovely campground with excellent amenities. The site was large and level with full hookups. There is a store with a bit more than the basics and reasonably priced. There is a swimming lake as well as a fishing lake. They have a mini golf course which was the best I've ever seen at a campground. The bathrooms and laundry facilities were immaculate. The hosts of this campground were extremely hospitable and that was very much appreciated! Without a doubt, we will return. We camped at Big Timber Lake RV Camping Resort in a Travel Trailer.
Yes, we give this park a 10. OK, I'll justify that rating. Park is immaculate and extremely well maintained. The roads are paved and are wide enough for big rigs to navigate easily. We opt for a "premium" site here and it comes with a concrete pad and full hookups. I know, a lot of campgrounds offer this, but these premiums are scattered throughout the park and not just in one section, which to us is nice. The bathrooms are excellent; clean with pay for showers with plenty of hot water. They also supply hair dryers which is a really nice amenity. The store is well stocked with excellent, knowledgeable, and friendly staff. There are amenities/activities for kids of all ages even teens, as well as adults, and they are endless. I personally do not participate, but it's there for the taking. The pool area is fantastic and is kept open even after "season" ends. It's not covered as soon as the last person gets out on Labor Day. This park stands out in a region where the mantra seems to be "Pay up and Shut up", "If you don't like it then leave". The hosts of this park are right in there with their employees smiling and doing whatever they can to see that their guests are enjoying themselves. I have never seen hosts of a park work so hard to produce great times for people. Thank you! As far as negatives, I really don't have any. This was our second visit; our first being smack in the middle of high season, and we have encountered no problems at all. We camped at Holly Shores Camping Resort in a Travel Trailer.
This was our 11th visit to this State campground. It is one of our favorites. There are no golf carts, no playgrounds, no pool, no trees, no hay rides, no planned activities, no wi-fi, not cable; I can go on. What is here is an amazing beach, fantastic fishing, and you can't beat the location; 10 minutes north are the outlets, 10 minutes south is Ocean City, MD. If this is for you, then stay here. If not, move on as you won't be happy. We camped at Delaware Seashore State Park in a Travel Trailer.
This is truly a wonderful place. Sites are easily accessible, spacious and clean. Entire park is clean and very well maintained. Bathrooms were immaculate. Staff is top notch; helpful and friendly which a lot of campgrounds seem to be lacking. Our stay here was comfortable and relaxing. Will return. We camped at Lake-in-Wood Camping Resort in a Travel Trailer.
Our site had a fantastic water view and was easily accessible. The park itself is huge and packed, but very clean. Bathrooms, showers, all public areas were immaculate. There is so much to do here you really don't ever need to leave the park. They run a shuttle to the beach every hour, so you don't need to use your car if you don't want to. Staff, while very busy, always had a smile and were willing to help. If we could have stayed for a month we would have. We camped at Castaways RV Resort & Campground in a Motorhome.
Dirt/sand sites are large but very unlevel. Park made up of mostly old seasonal sites with for sale signs on them. Cars speeding to get to their seasonal site kicking up dirt and sand where you're trying to eat. Pool is extremely small. Facilities showing their age. Place is expensive; site rate only covers 2 people anyone else is extra charge. Store is small and expensive. I cannot understand why this campground gets high reviews or gets off charging the ridiculous rates it does. There is NO security at all. Gates are open wide all day and night long with no one in the gate shack. We camped at Atlantic City North Family Campground in a Travel Trailer.
The entrance to the park is very nice and clean; excellent impression. The staff was so/so. One was nice and pleasant, the next not so much. I called prior to arrival to see if we could check in early. I told the girl I would pay for the night but couldn't get there til the morning. She said the site was empty (2 weeks prior to checking in), but she would note my file and if it was empty the night before they would accommodate. I called the day before and the site was still open. Keep in mind I told them I would pay for the extra night, but couldn't get there until the next morning. I was told NO because someone may come in during the evening for a site. Really? I was willing to pay the $62 for an extra night, but they wanted to see if someone would come in off the street for a spot? I guess they thought maybe they could have gotten $100 for a last minute overnight rental. Either way their greed got the best of them and they lost the $62 I was willing to pay for early check in. Attached to the store is an adult lounge where the Wi-Fi is available. Next to that is a game room; air conditioned with a nice assortment of games. All three of these facilities are immaculate. The pool area is somewhat small for the size of this campground. Chairs that weren't broken were hard to find. On the weekend, both pools were packed to the point where you are just getting kicked in the back and jumped on. That was ok because we were here for the beach and used the pool very little. The showers, bathrooms and laundry across from the pool were also immaculate. Now on to the bad part which is the cause of the low rating. We were assigned to a spot in the "P" section behind the pool. Our site was so unlevel that one side of our camper was raised 4" off the ground! The site was made up of stones and what appeared to be concrete debris. This broken up stone destroyed our patio mat as when you walked on the mat the sharp pieces of concrete went right through it! It was also very hard on your ankles to walk across this site because the size of this debris varied (some pieces the size of tennis balls), and we all found our ankles to be rolling on the rocks. The water and cable hookup for the site next to ours was right in the middle of our own site! Not in the back; not in the front, but right smack in the middle of our site. Not very comfortable or convenient. We were thankful to have a very nice couple next to us at first. It seemed like minutes after they left in comes the next camper. This person had his son helping him and I'm not sure either one of them knew what they were doing because, yes, they pulled the lever for their BLACK TANKS! Gallons and gallons of crap came flying out. They were from out of the country, and apparently had a long trip. I was sitting not 3 feet away from this, on my postage stamp. Truly the most disgusting thing I have ever seen. While this is not the fault of the campground, they should have staff overseeing the transition of their campers. Needless to say that ended our trip of being able to sit out and eat dinner. They claim the site we were given, they put 40' rigs on. There is no way a rig of that size can fit onto these sites properly. I understand it's all about the money, but when you are being charged a premium to be packed in like a sardine, it's not worth it, especially if you can't open your slide or awning, or both. It also was a safety issue as we kept tripping over the water and cable lines for the next site that were placed in the middle of our site. Additionally, we believe this site must have been dug up repeatedly because of the high middle ground. Another issue with the site was the flies. Never have I seen flies so bad! Was this site a septic site? Behind our camper towards the brush had a horrible smell of urine. Possibly, or were people using the brush as a toilet. We did see campers down the row from us dumping garbage into the brush behind their camper. Once again, I believe that is the campground's fault. They have lots of staff sweeping and starting leaf blowers at 8:00 am, but no one to assist or make sure things are ok. The office just looks at you and says: "Sorry." The sites in the back of the park are wooded with a bit more breathing room, but appeared to be quite difficult to get into as some are between trees, sites, and at odd angles with very narrow one way roads. If our site wasn't so miserable, it would have been a good stay. We camped at Avalon campground in a Travel Trailer.


If Given A Second Term, Will The President Dare To Become A Liberal? I Hope So.
It's political season again and the airwaves are full of polluted words. Presidential campaigning is a travesty, an official lie. And mainstream media is a diversion, at best. It's enough to drive a person to drink. Thankfully, there are voices crying in the wilderness. Voices like Arun Gupta's.
Gupta, a journalist and activist, spoke in Seattle, WA on August 23, 2012. The transcript of his talk, plus the audio file are available for purchase from AlternativeRadio.org. I plopped down my $3 to download the transcript after hearing a portion of Gupta's talk on KBOO Community Radio, earlier this week.
The Democrats are a firmly right-wing party while the Republicans are a fanatical right-wing party. What we've had over the last 30 years or so is the Democrats take the right-wing radicalism and turn it into bipartisan consensus. So the next iteration of the right becomes more and more extreme. We do know, if the right does get into power, if Romney is elected, they will nominate extreme Supreme Court justices, they will viciously attack organized labor beyond what the Obama administration is doing, and they will, of course, viciously attack reproductive rights and access to birth control. So there is an argument to be made, yes, you should just go in the voting booth. But on a whole host of other issues it's difficult to say who is going to be worse.
Both parties are going to pursue austerity policies on Social Security and Medicare, neither party will address global warming, or, in fact, they will address it—they will make it worse. It's "Drill, baby, drill." Those have been Obama's policies for the last four years. The wars will continue, the Islamophobia will continue, the targeted assassinations will continue, the police and prison industrial complex will continue, the assault on civil liberties, spying on Americans, and on and on and on. We know that it really doesn't make a difference, because liberals do not provide any sort of oppositional force when the Democrats are in power.
Gupta admits there is "an argument to be made" for voting for the least offensive of the two corporate candidates. It's an argument I am working over in my head, just in time for our Oregon ballots to arrive via snail mail. I have a history of voting for third party candidates for President, because I prefer to vote my heart. That's my preference and my right, misguided as it sometimes seems. My problem this fall is I feel as disillusioned with "making a statement" when I vote — which is what voting third party largely is — as I do with voting for a Democrat.
It's been 40 years since Nixon's second successful bid for The White House.
It's also been 40 years since the Committee for the Re-Election of the President (CREEP) sent a group of rubber-gloved thugs to break in to Democratic National Committee headquarters at The Watergate.
Carl Bernstein and Bob Woodward of The Washington Post, who won The Pulitzer Prize in 1973 for their coverage of the break-in and political conspiracy, have a new piece in the Post that paints Nixon in severely dark tones.
This reflective piece from Woodward and Bernstein comes, for me, on the heels of my first reading of The Boys On The Bus by Rolling Stone reporter Timothy Crouse. His behind-the-scenes look at the media and the coverage provided during the 1972 Presidential campaign is a critical read. While it too is 40 years old, the narrative is far from dated.
Crouse argues that Nixon and his team played the press like a violin during the campaign, feeding them an official story of the day and running them here and there, all the while keeping Nixon almost totally out of sight. The team included H.R. Halderman, Nixon's White House Cheif of Staff, who worked at J. Walter Thompson in NYC and LA for 20 years before joining the White House team. Halderman also brought Ron Ziegler, Nixon's White House Press Secretary, with him from JWT.
Not surprisingly, Halderman and Ziegler had a well defined media and brand strategy, and they executed it perfectly. Consider that The Watergate break-in happened on June 17, nearly five months ahead of the election, and it had no impact whatsoever on the election. In fact, Nixon won a majority vote in 49 states, including McGovern's home state of South Dakota.

Happy fathers' and grandfathers' day! Welcome fathers and grandfathers to the gates of Crestwood where we find ourselves dumbfounded by a corporation which values money over the health of our families by Crestwood which seeks to store explosive and poisonous fracked gasses in unstable salt caverns beneath the banks of beautiful Seneca Lake.
Welcome dads to this stand we take at these gates to protect our families and communities. We are used to playing the role of protector. It's what we do.
We would not stand by and allow an immediate threat to harm a family member. We would put ourselves in harm's way to protect our loved ones. We have done this before.
And now we do it here. Crestwood's actions and intentions present a clear and present danger to our wellbeing and that of our families and communities. And we will do what it takes to eliminate the threat. And we will do it peacefully and nonviolently. We will do it with our good minds and strong hearts working together. We will do it with love leading the way. And we will win the battle at these gates. And we will witness Crestwood's retreat.
We'll join forces with the mothers and grandmothers of this region whose passion for protecting all that we love matches our own. No corporation can prevail over the determination of us parents to avert harm from befalling the people and environment we care about.
A father senses a duty to assess any danger that threatens his family. Dads – are our families in danger here?
There are other ways a father protects his children. We do so by building their self-esteem, confidence, and life skills. We do so by fine tuning their decision making and problem solving skills, and by strengthening their judgment so they can protect themselves and their own families down the road.
We provide loving leadership intended to foster responsibility and competence in adulthood. And we teach values such as respect for all forms of life in nature, and the expectation that when others threaten to destroy what is good about life we stand up and say NO.
In society's view, a successful father is a lifelong leader and teacher. His lessons about right and wrong live on in the lives of his children long after they find their own way, and long after he has passed from this life. A great father never stops being a father. He lives on as a great man in the hearts of his children and friends.
So dads, a father's job is never done. Here we are again, setting the example…this time for an entire region.
Men let's go forward today and block us a truck, shall we. And if no trucks should appear, we stand up and send our message to Crestwood nonetheless: Go home to Texas. There will be no gas storage here!

A worldwide flood would kill all the animals (except for some that normally live in water) and most of the vegetation.

Rafael Ramos Is Healthy, Ready, and Excited Entering His Third Season In MLS
Orlando City players arrived for preseason medicals on Saturday. Rafael Ramos says he's excited to return to action.
By Gavin Ewbank@GavinEwbank Jan 22, 2017, 12:00pm EST
Share All sharing options for: Rafael Ramos Is Healthy, Ready, and Excited Entering His Third Season In MLS
John Rieger-USA TODAY Sports
Rafael Ramos' second full season in MLS was nothing short of a frustration.
After signing a new four-year contract with Orlando City, the young defender struggled with his form early in the year before a hamstring injury popped up in late May and handcuffed him to the sideline for almost the remainder of the season.
After spending the majority of the off-season in his home country of Portugal, the 22-year-old is back in the Sunshine State healthy and ready to tackle the task ahead with his teammates this season.
Orlando City players reported to the Orlando Health Medical Center in downtown Orlando on Saturday morning for their preseason physicals before they take the field for the first day of training on Monday, three months to the day since the Lions ended their 2016 season with a 4-2 win over D.C. United.
"It will be quick now," Ramos said of the long off-season to a small gathering of reporters. "We start training on Monday, and we'll get back on the field — that's the fun stuff. And then the work will begin."
Ramos, who was given a clean bill of health from the club doctors, is excited heading into his third season in MLS.
"The doctor said I'm okay, and I'm feeling okay, so I'm really excited to be here again," Ramos said. "I just came back at the end of the season last year and I felt great. I didn't stop in the off-season. I kept working, and I'm feeling great now."
Ramos was limited to just 12 games last season — and only one after starting 10 of the Lions' first 11 games because of the injury. He only made one appearance for Jason Kreis at the end of the season, having been out with the bum hamstring when Adrian Heath was let go by the club.
He arrives home to an Orlando City team, specifically the back line, that looks much different than it did at season's end, happy to be one of the returning faces.
"It tells me that I think that he likes me and he wants me here, and I'll be my best to help him," he said.
And, unlike the new faces, Ramos comes back into camp as a player that knows Kreis and his style, and vice versa. "It's good for me because I know him from a little bit of last season, and I know what he wants, what he likes, and I'll try to do my best to impress him."
Among the excitement of the new season on the horizon for Orlando City sits the brand new downtown soccer stadium that's set to open this season. Sure to please and destined to be among the loudest places in the league, coaches and players alike haven't been able to hide their excitement for the club's new home.
"[I'm] looking forward to seeing it very soon," Ramos said. "I just saw it coming here. It looks great, it looks beautiful, and I think it will be great for us and a very tough place for the visitors to come. Just being a new stadium, it's a great thing for us. It looks great, it has great facilities, and I think it will help us a lot. Being a little bit smaller will be great for our fans, and it'll always be full, which is great for us.
"Very much looking forward to [the first game], and I hope that we get a big win for the amazing fans."

The right and duty of jury nullification
Jul 26, 2017 by Dr. Joel McDurmon 30 Comments
An important avenue in which we can, and must, currently work to restore the principles of liberty is through jury nullification. This practice, once widely accepted among Christian and early American jurists and lawyers, has been largely forgotten—until very recently. Thanks to the increasing interest in liberty, civic involvement, and the advance of individual rights, we are seeing a resurgence of this principle. An interest in the principles of God's law will take the Christian even further.
The principle itself is quite simple: juries have the perfectly legal right to determine both the facts and the law in cases over which they sit in judgment. This concept sounds radical to most modern ears, but it's absolutely true. In cases where the application of a current law would actually cause an unjust outcome, or where the applicable law itself is unpopular or simply a bad law, the jury has the full power to remedy the situation—even if the defendant is technically guilty of breaking that law—by refusing to find that defendant guilty, by declaring the person innocent. Juries have this right even if the judge instructs them otherwise in any way.
Several of the founding fathers understood the fundamental importance of jury nullification. John Adams said, "It is not only [the juror's] right, but his duty … to find the verdict according to his own best understanding, judgment, and conscience, though in direct opposition to the direction of the court." Likewise, the first Chief Justice of the U. S. Supreme Court, John Jay, stated that "you have nevertheless a right to take upon yourselves to judge of both, and to determine the law as well as the fact in controversy. . . . [B]oth objects are lawfully, within your power of decision." Unsurprisingly, Jefferson joined these federalists in this view. He explained why we should support jury nullification: "To consider judges as the ultimate arbiters of all constitutional questions is a very dangerous doctrine indeed and one which would place us under the despotism of an oligarchy." ((Jefferson to William Charles Jarvis, The Works of Thomas Jefferson, 12 vol., ed. Paul Leicester Ford (New York and London: G. P. Putnam's Sons and The Kinckerbocker Press, 1905), 12:162.))
This power was preserved as basic to preventing government abuse of power. During the ratification debates over our Constitution, jury nullification was upheld as a fundamental check against potential abuse under the proposed Constitution. During the debates in Massachusetts, Theophilus Parsons—a supporter of the Constitution and later State Supreme Court Chief Justice—proclaimed that
the people themselves have it in their power effectually to resist usurpation, without being driven to an appeal to arms. An act of usurpation is not obligatory; it is not law; and any man may be justified in his resistance. Let him be considered as a criminal by the general government, yet only his own fellow-citizens can convict him; they are his jury, and if they pronounce him innocent, not all the powers of Congress can hurt him; and innocent they certainty will pronounce him, if the supposed law he resisted was an act of usurpation. ((In Jonathan Elliot, ed., The Debates in the Several State Conventions, on the Adoption of the Federal Constitution, 4 vols. (Washington, 1836), 2:94. Partially quoted also in Thomas Woods, Jr., Rollback: Repealing Big Government Before the Coming Fiscal Collapse(Washington, D.C.: Regnery, 2011), 179.))
The framers recognized the importance of this issue from the hard lessons of previous generations. William Penn, founder of Pennsylvania, was a defendant in a 1670 case in England in which he was tried for unlawful assembly. He had violated the so-called "Conventicle Act" of 1664 which forbade religious assemblies of more than five persons for Christians who were not members of a government-registered church. This act was part of the Elizabethan acts of Unity which aimed to centralize the English Church and suppress all puritans and other Protestants. Penn was one of these. When drawn into court, he pleaded not guilty. The jury upheld his innocence—not because he had not broken the law, but because they esteemed the particular law unjust. The bench was furious, and threatened the jurors with imprisonment and deprivation. It finally settled upon fining each member and imprisoning them until it was paid. A higher court, however, later released them. The episode was very famous; it was fundamental to our framer's understanding of how courts would become tyrannical and uncontrollable unless we preserve the right of jury nullification.
Unfortunately, today it is a practice of most judges to remain silent about this aspect of the law and instead specifically lies to juries, instructing them that they may only consider the facts in the case and not the law in question itself. While this is false, an 1895 Supreme Court decision nevertheless ruled that this practice is constitutional—judges are not required to explain to juries their right of jury nullification. But this by no means makes the right itself any less important. (It just means that judges are elitist, not wanting average people to have a say in the righteousness of any given law, pressured by large beneficiaries, or that they for some other reason lean toward the side of the prosecution in all cases. Whatever the cause, it's unethical and counterproductive to liberty in most cases.) Despite the judges' shifty silence, the Supreme Court itself has upheld the right more than once in American history:
In 1952, for example, the Court found that "juries are not bound by what seems inescapable logic to judges." And in 1972, that "The pages of history shine on instances of the jury's exercise of its prerogative to disregard instructions of the judge."
This all means, of course, that the Supreme Court is forced by our Constitution to acknowledge the right of jury nullification, yet since judges don't like to admit it, the Supremes have also given a pass to the "right" of judges to deceive and intimidate juries against it. "Home of the brave. . . ."
The application of the right has a deep and meaningful American heritage among the truly brave, however. Juries exercised it against the Alien and Sedition Acts of Adams and against the Fugitive Slave laws in the 1850s. It was used against growing corporate power during the height of the progressive era, used frequently against alcohol control laws during Prohibition, and even in a few cases for Vietnam War protestors.
There is good biblical precedent for jury nullification as well. Not only is the right itself derived from the nature and structure of God's law, but episodes such as the deliverance of Jonathan from unjust punishment in 1 Samuel 14 illustrate the right and duty in action.
A Fox News report on the subject relates,
A common question I get from people disturbed by these kinds of cases is, "What can we do?" Well, here's one thing the average citizen can do: Serve when you're called to jury duty, and while there, refuse to enforce unjust laws. If a defendant is guilty of harming someone else, certainly, throw the book at him. But if he's guilty of violating a bad law, or if you feel the law has been unjustly applied to him, by all means, come back with "not guilty," no matter what the judge, the prosecutor, or the evidence says.
For those wishing to have as immediate an impact as possible in this regard, they should not only embrace jury duty when called, they should learn as much as possible about it and actively work to spread knowledge of the right and duty among their families, communities, churches, and in public wherever possible. Likewise, interested parties should read and learn as much as possible about the subject. Here are some resources that can help:
First, I would highly recommend the compact Juror Handbook by Brent Allan Winters, which we carry. Brent says, "Without the Jury, protection of our fundamental rights by our Constitution becomes nothing more than ink on paper. In order for freedom to flourish, each American must become aware of the juror's rights of responsibility."
Secondly, there is the Duty of the Jury lecture course provided by the Institute on the Constitution. It can be a bit pricey, but it is built upon a biblical worldview. There is a fuller teaching kit available as well.
Finally, there is at least one secular organization devoted to this issue—the Fully Informed Jury Association. They provide resources for education, including a DVD lecture series for Churches. Although the biblical content is not nearly as strong as with the other resources, their material is still robust and very helpful.
Want to be a true social justice warrior? Start with learning the right and duty of jury nullification. Then spread the word.

A: You've declared study_1 to be a character field with a maximum length of 1 character, but you're setting it with four-digit strings representing years.

A: change the max_length of study_1 to 4 or more and then make a migration of your changes by python manage.py makemigrations. Finally apply changes by python manage.py migrate.

A desire for change brings new faces to Tunisian politics
By Ryan Grace
WASHINGTON, D.C. — Seizing on Tunisians' lack of faith in traditional political elites, two outsiders beat a field of 24 other candidates to advance to the final round of voting in Tunisia's presidential elections. Law professor Kais Saied and businessman Nabil Karoui, who is currently in jail on charges of money laundering and tax evasion, led the field in the September 15 election and will run against one another in early October. Their success thus far represents a popular shift in Tunisia, where consensus between Islamists and secularist elites has driven politics since the 2011 Tunisian Revolution.
In the past eight years, Tunisia has struggled to deliver on the promises of the revolution that ousted dictator Zine El Abidine Ben Ali. According to World Bank data, unemployment in Tunisia hovers around 15% and has been estimated to be near 30% among young college graduates. A lack of jobs, coupled with high inflation and a weak currency, has hampered economic development. The repeated failure of the main political parties to address these problems has nurtured disdain for the establishment. This feeling is reflected in voter turnout, which dropped to 33% in last year's municipal elections.
This election comes at the tail end of a tumultuous summer punctuated by the death of President Beji Caid Essebsi. His passing in late July caused the timing of the presidential elections to be shifted from November to September, placing them before parliamentary elections. This change may have allowed independent candidates such as Saied to attract more attention, as voters were less inclined to focus on party affiliation due to parliamentary results.
The field of 26 candidates included big names such as current Prime Minister Yousef Chahed of Tahya Tounes and Abdelfattah Mourou of Ennahda. According to Nizar Ben Salah, lead researcher at the Maghreb Economic Forum, "the large number of presidential candidates does not reflect diversity…22 out of 26 candidates share almost the same ideas, messages and initiatives." Those who were able to differentiate their message found success.
Nabil Karoui's rise as a populist alternative has been spurred by his successful use of the private television station he owns, Nessma Tounes, to publicize his anti-poverty charity organization's work to aid Tunisia's poor and promote the political message of his political party, Heart of Tunis. His populist messaging and business background have led some to call him the "Tunisian Berlusconi," a reference to Silvio Berlusconi, the Italian media tycoon and longtime politician. His arrest on money laundering and tax evasion charges (which he claims were purely politically motivated) caused Karoui to be in jail during the election. Despite this, he was still able to capture 15.5% of the vote, a large portion of which came from older Tunisians who saw him as someone who could deliver economic reform.
If Karoui is known for being popular and visible through television and media, Kais Saied might well be described as the opposite. Known for his rigid style of speaking and preference for Modern Standard Arabic rather than the Tunisian dialect, the man nicknamed "Robocop" by his supporters built a campaign centered around humility, youth appeal and conservatism.
Running a small campaign consisting of door-to-door canvassing and a heavy social media presence, Saied's appeal seems derived from the perception that he might be an incorruptible "clean slate" for Tunisia. He argues for a drastic shift in the political makeup of Tunisia that would introduce direct democracy and widespread political decentralization. This would lead to greater autonomy in local government, which he claims will empower youth. His willingness to take aim at the broader system in Tunisia appealed greatly to frustrated youth, a demographic where he captured 37% of voters between the age of 18-25, and 18.4% in the overall results.
Saied's conservatism has prompted some concern from the activist community. He calls for the return of the death penalty, the maintenance of an inheritance law that allots women a fraction of the money that men receive, and the continued criminalization of homosexuality. Despite Saied's success, many activists remain optimistic about the trajectory of social justice issues in Tunisia. Describing this year's elections, one activist said, "during the debates, topics that were once taboo were talked about on live TV," reflecting how mainstream political discourse has expanded to include LGBT and women's rights.
To win the presidency, the presidential hopefuls will need more than 50% of the vote in the final round. Since leading the first round, Saied has received the backing of at least five other parties, including the Islamist Ennahda party. His appeal to youth is likely to attract more voters in the upcoming round. In contrast, support for Karoui's candidacy has not grown significantly, and his base of mostly older Tunisians is not expected to increase much. Saied's support, coupled with the fact that Karoui is currently in jail, has left Saied as the favorite to win the presidency.
Whether Saied or Karoui ultimately proves victorious in the final round of the election, they may both face additional challenges as political outsiders navigating a political environment that still requires successful presidents to build coalitions with political elites.
Speaking to the Observer, SAIS alumnus and Tunisia-based journalist for El País Ricard Gonzalez (SAIS '07) explained that, if he wins, "Saied will be a weak President. He was only able to win about 18% of the vote in the first round, and in the last election [former President] Essebsi won 37%. Also, he does not have a political party and will need to make compromises with political elites."
The unanticipated rise of outsider candidates like Saied and Karoui bodes for an interesting October as Tunisia holds parliamentary elections. It remains to be seen if the anti-establishment wave will carry over to the legislative elections set for October 6.
