Ruth Mottram <p>In case anyone is interested in my view on the <a class="hashtag" href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23Greenland" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Greenland</a> election result btw, I think most people voted on domestic issues: cost of living, healthcare, education, employment, elderly care and maybe most of all, fish. Though for sure the USA <a class="hashtag" href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23geopolitics" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#geopolitics</a> angle probably helped <a class="hashtag" href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23TurnOutTheVote" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#TurnOutTheVote</a>. 1/</p>

And IMHO far too many journalists went in with an external view, without understanding the actual voters (part of the problem is too few Greenlandic journalists and a strike at public broadcaster KNR during the campaign probably didn't help). </p><p><a href="https://fediscience.org/@Ruth_Mottram/114144133051658500" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">fediscience.org/@Ruth_Mottram/</span><span class="invisible">114144133051658500</span></a> Incidentally, and naming no names, I have been contacted a couple of times by US based journalists with requests for suggestions for interviewees, specifically "community leaders".</p><p>I suggested the Prime Minister. </p><p>I don't think many people really understand just how autonomous Greenland is within the Kingdom. </p><p><a href="https://fediscience.org/@Ruth_Mottram/114144017693389064" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">fediscience.org/@Ruth_Mottram/</span><span class="invisible">114144017693389064</span></a><br>Ruth_Mottram - Very good piece on the choices being voted on in the <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/Greenland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Greenland</span></a> elections. <br>As always @financialtimes coverage is top notch when it comes to <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/geopolitics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>geopolitics</span></a>.</p><p>Greenland independence debate ‘on steroids’ ahead of election - <a href="https://on.ft.com/3DFYM9W" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">on.ft.com/3DFYM9W</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p>

Shawn M. Jones, PhD<p>Vote! I just finished my first batch of Vote Forward letters to encourage voter turnout. You can do this, too! Go to <a href="https://votefwd.org" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">votefwd.org</span><span class="invisible"></span></a> and receive instructions on how to send hand-written letters to voters giving them a list of the candidates on their local ballot and encouraging them to vote. <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/vote" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>vote</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/democracy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>democracy</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/civic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>civic</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/CivicDuty" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CivicDuty</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/election" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>election</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/vote2024" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>vote2024</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/turnOutTheVote" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>turnOutTheVote</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/RockTheVote" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>RockTheVote</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/VoterTurnout" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>VoterTurnout</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/RegisterToVote" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>RegisterToVote</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/RegisterAndVote" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>RegisterAndVote</span></a></p>
