So today is the day.

Will you exercise your right to vote? I don't care to know who you voted for, that is none of my business. Just wondering how many voted. :sunshine:

Mr. Cannon will get in regardless, but I would like to voice my displeasure.

True. The Conservatives will sweep everything from the Shuswap, down through Vernon, Kelowna, West Kelowna and Penticton, but the Russian NDP communist in the Kootenay’s in the down South riding will keep his seat….

Communist really? That's like me calling Cannon an anarchist.

I'm not in Elizabeth May's riding either and I hope she loses miserably! I'm going to vote Conservative even though they don't really need it, as thankfully we have enough people capable of critical and rational thought living in the Central Okanagan ridings.

We voted earlier at the "Westbank Lions Community Centre" and I would say traffic was steady. We had absolutely no wait though and it looked like virtually all those voting were of retirement age. I presume the younger people will come out during their lunch break or after work but who actually votes is the real X factor in this election.

Sounds very similar to my riding Urbane. I did note one individual who appeared to be in his 20's, but the rest were clearly on the north side of 40 or 50. Perhaps things will pick up this afternoon.

I'll hit it on the way home.

But even if I didn't, I still have every right to *bleep*.
