New Year's Election Present

[c9]

I have a present for you!

As long as you = Canadian citizen (or interested in Canadian politics).

Cam's Pretty Clearly Left-Leaning Riding Write-ups!

I am planning to do a write-up of several different ridings, showing the candidates, the predictions, maybe a suggestion, and the previous results. And I'll do it for your riding! My goal is to provide information that everyone will find useful, not just people who agree with my politics. All I ask is that you post something you want to know about your riding that will help you decide how to vote. Alternately, tell me your goal for this election. Please be sure to tell me your riding too. Go here to find out.

Example: "I want to know if the Green Party has any chance at all in my riding, because I'd kinda like to support them if it will get them a seat."

Another example: "I think Stephen Harper will actually come into my home and steal my baby and force my child to work in a sweatshop with the homosexuals. I want to stop that."

The final example: "I want the Liberals out out out out out. Also, out."

Etc.

The riding profiles start tomorrow! For those of you uninterested, sorry in advance. I will try to post non-election programming for your benefit too.

My riding is: Nepean--Carleton

Last election, Conservatives kicked out the then defense-minister and won by a fairly big margin.

This election, new Liberal candidate. Is PC a shoe-in or does anyone else have a chance?

I'll do up a profile for you, but I'd say already that your Conservative candidate will get back in. Unless the Liberal candidate is a big star, which he doesn't seem to be: http://liberal.ca/bio_e.aspx?id=35052&type=can

He sure doesn't seem to be. When we met him on the street before Christmas, he couldn't even answer some basic questions about the Liberal platform. He said he would get back to us, so far nada.

Just curious to see what your take is.

Well, that experience clinches it for me. He's a goner.

Yeah. I have a hard time deciding if I want to vote for the candidate whos party I want to be prime minister, or which candidate is the best in my particular riding.

If it was the latter, there is no way I would vote for this guy after meeting him. But Stephen Harper...
