Denmark has not just one but two upcoming elections. With Danish general elections, and European parliament elections in the horizon, citizens cannot seem to avoid politics in their private time, even if they want to.
Joachim B. Olsen, a Danish politician from the Liberal Alliance, knows how to reach out to the voters. His recent election campaign was unapologetically put up on Pornhub asking voters to ‘vote for Jokke’.
Jokke being the nickname for Joachim and a similar-sounding Danish slang used here as a pun for masturbation. Reportedly, he paid $450 to put this ad across the Canadian pornographic website.
The idea might seem too explicit to be executed by a politician. However, Olsen himself has confirmed that it was his idea to get a good laugh and maybe some votes. Here is his Facebook post which apparently testifies to the same.
