The official ANC platform for debate on Twitter

[ANC_Debate @ANC_Debate]

Recap: as per tweet at 11:30, tweet debate postponed, new date to be announced ASAP.

[ANC_Debate @ANC_Debate]

@BazTheSpaz Good idea - perhaps solves "which of the many Qs to answer" prob. Down-side is losing one-to-one immediacy...

[ANC_Debate @ANC_Debate]

@ambio Absolutely... the MyANC.org site and ANC_info twitter feed is doing that for elections, looking to make tech more broadly used

[ANC_Debate @ANC_Debate]

So, Twitterverse. Suggestions? Clear, fast, super-concise. How would you do it?

[ANC_Debate @ANC_Debate]

With over 540 Qs asked in first debate, speed is priority (fast cut’n’paste), as is saving chars for the Q (retweet function=4 extra chars)

[ANC_Debate @ANC_Debate]

Some Twitter users have asked why we used the convention: 1) Q is @’ed to ANC_Debate by someone 2) Q tweeted back as “nick @ANC_Debate etc”

[ANC_Debate @ANC_Debate]

While we set a new date for the next ANC Twitter debate, we'd like to put the question out there: how can it be done better technically?

[ANC_Debate @ANC_Debate]

Today's planned ANC Twitter debate has been postponed due to time constraints as a key team member is off ill. New date to be announced asap

[ANC_Debate @ANC_Debate]

... with more information plus feedback from the last debate. The topic will be: "What's the first issue the new government should tackle?"

[ANC_Debate @ANC_Debate]

We will have another Twitter Debate on Tuesday, April 28th after final election results are in. We will put up a blog post later today...

[ANC_Debate @ANC_Debate]

Remember Encourage ppl to go out there in number to vote to and make their mark So VOTE ANC... fOR A Better Life For All..

[ANC_Debate @ANC_Debate]

or alternatively send it to [email protected] you can also send videos too, asking ppl how they feel before and after they have voted.

[ANC_Debate @ANC_Debate]

If you have any pictures of ppl casting their votes or waiting on the queue in your area... Please add it on the African National Congre ...

[ANC_Debate @ANC_Debate]

We are working on improving the process and your feedback is welcome. ANC is excited at how this went and looking forward to more debates

[ANC_Debate @ANC_Debate]

No users were banned or blocked from the debate. We answered as many questions as we could in the time allowed..

[ANC_Debate @ANC_Debate]

... next Friday, same time. Cheers, Jessie

[ANC_Debate @ANC_Debate]

That's all for today. Join us at Ellis Park on Sunday for final election rally. Thank you for your time and questions. We'll be back...

[ANC_Debate @ANC_Debate]

We all share responsibility for building patriotism. Whatever our challenges and differences SA today is a united and free nation.

[ANC_Debate @ANC_Debate]

HiRi_Ho @ANC_Debate there seems to be very little patriotism at the moment any plans on improving this? If so how?

[ANC_Debate @ANC_Debate]

Good idea. We'll try to cover main subjects raised on www.myanc.org. Thank you for all the contributions, sorry we couldn't answer all q's
