Blackout

The election advertising blackout started at midnight.  This is the last time for about the next three years you'll enjoy a break from political advertising.

Enjoy the peace while it lasts, stay as far away as possible from news and current affairs shows, and bin any last-minute mail from candidates.  Speaking for myself, I've got a night of choir rehearsal tomorrow and on Friday I intend to sleep as early as possible (it's a big day on Saturday!).  Not having a television means my electoral coverage has come from the ABC iView website; life has been mercifully quiet in a world where attack ads a relatively unknown.
