Since I have never voted Liberal in 20 years, every trip to a federal or provincial poll is, technically, a complete waste of time for me... and has been for a long time. I vote only because I have sufficient sense of civic duty to motivate me to go, but I understand people who don't (even if I think they're lazy sacks).<BR/><BR/>Believe me, I know how the Liberal voter in Calgary (or Pembroke... ugh) feels, and how the Green voter feels.<BR/><BR/>I supported MMP in the referendum, but my preference would be the Australia-style "Single Transferrable Vote" that BC is proposing in an upcoming referendum.<BR/><BR/>I'd rather have an NDP government that people want, than a Conservative government that an overwhelming majority don't want... and I'm generally a Conservative supporter.Evolving Squidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01652337040136033626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-674192606176078067.post-54783566148382609982008-10-15T00:29:00.000-04:002008-10-15T00:29:00.000-04:00Yep.
