I also always vote when given the opportunity.
As exec for NDP in my riding I saw the other side where stats were looked at
as to where to target info.
I was highly unimpressed.
I also know the local players. in fact I lived in the same apt building as
one of the mayoralty candidates until March LOL
My new faith discourages me from actively campaigning for my favourite
candidates (working on that one) but I am encouraged to vote and be
informed. I have always encouraged those around me to vote and make informed
choices. I am proud to say that the homelessness debate here (
www.endhomelessnessottawa.ca to hear it ) was well attended, all 6
candidates addressed the issue and we were honoured that we were asked if
our format could be duplicated in several of the debates that hare following
us.
