Most-Híd - Lučenec, 2010

The text reads (in both Hungarian and Slovak): "Party of cooperation", and "Hungarian. Boldly". This message is meant for Hungarian voters who live in Lučenec (they are a significant percentage of the town's population, and even more so in the region south of the town). The message implies that they should be able to express their Hungarian identity and language in Slovakia without fear, and that a vote for Most-Híd and their goal of bridging the ethnic divide between Slovaks and Hungarians in the country will help make that a reality.

Freedom and Solidarity (SaS) - Lučenec, 2010

The text reads: "Future generations vote for SaS", "You are deciding about the future of your children on June 12, 2010" (the day the parliamentary elections were held). This is another classic billboard, with SaS making the somewhat edgy decision (in Slovak politics) to cover a billboard with animated swimming sperm heading towards the SaS egg. This was part of their campaign tactic of targeting their advertising towards younger voters.
