Spanish politicians try to woo voters over WhatsApp

Does anyone here thing this is a good idea?

Tucked among selfies and inspirational status updates, Borja Gutiérrez Iglesias’s profile photo shows him casually perched on the edge of a fountain. His status reads “At your disposition to listen.”

With just months left before municipal elections in Spain, Gutiérrez Iglesias, the People’s party mayor of Brunete, near Madrid, has taken his campaign to the next frontier: WhatsApp.

“It’s been about a month since we went around giving every resident my phone number,” said Gutiérrez Iglesias, who has headed the small town of about 10,000 people since 2011. After taking to Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn, WhatsApp – a smartphone application that allows users to send and receive free texts to anyone in their contact list – felt like the final frontier, he said. Since launching the campaign “Call me or write [to] me on my phone!”, he checks the app on his phone at all hours, responding to most messages within minutes. Messages stream in all day; from as early as 6am and sometimes until 1am.

In a key election year, Gutiérrez Iglesias is one of several Spanish politicians who has turned to WhatsApp in recent months in an attempt to woo voters. Murcia’s Rubén Juan Serna and Madrid’s Ramón Marcos, both politicians for the centrist Union, Progress and Democracy, have handed out their numbers, while in Boadilla del Monte, a small town in the outskirts of Madrid, residents are invited to fill in an online form so that they can “WhatsApp with the mayor”.
