Few weeks before the National Elections, popular convenience store 7-eleven for the 2nd time re-launched its “7-election: The voice of the GULP generation” local survey campaign to echo the voice of the entire nation when it comes to its presidential bet.
Dubbed as The Voice of the Gulp Generation that started this Wednesday, March 23, 7-Eleven Philippines customers can ‘vote’ in the 2016 elections by choosing the cup that has the photo of their presidential bet – VP Jejomar Binay, former DILG Secretary Mar Roxas, Sen. Miriam Defensor-Santiago, Sen. Grace Poe, or Mayor Rody Duterte.
The mechanics is super simple, just visit any of its stores, purchase its signature drink, the “Gulp” and pick the cup of your choice with the image and name of your presidential aspirant. The staff will then record your preference and send the data to their website: http://www.7-election.com.ph/. On the website, a countdown timer to the national election is highlighted along with almost real-time survey results collated from the store chain’s 1,600 outlets all over the Philippines.
The result of the survey is not only on per region basis. On the site, you can select the province and municipality, so you’ll know who is the leading presidentiable in a particular area.
On May 9th, the election day, 7-eleven will release the final result.
