ZENICA,
Bosnia-Herzegovina (AP) -- A mayoral candidate in Bosnia's
fourth-largest city is using one of the Internet's greatest lures -
pornography - to draw attention to his campaign.
Mirad Hadziahmetovic is an independent candidate with a relatively slim chance of winning the October election in Zenica.
He
said Thursday that he decided to upload pornographic video clips to his
official campaign site after realizing that large numbers of people use
the Web to peruse sexual content.
To view the
material on his site, visitors must answer questions, such as "What is
more important for Zenica, job creation or increasing the municipal
budget" through taxes?
At the end of each clip
there is a separately recorded video of Hadziahmetovic talking directly
to camera and saying: "If you liked this clip, vote for me."
