Joey Posted June 12, 2014 Report Posted June 12, 2014 I agree, I don't see how anyone can logically vote liberal after the mess they have made and lies they have told. Anyone who votes liberal better blame only themselves when things get worse than they already are, and believe me, they will.
Headhunter Posted June 12, 2014 Report Posted June 12, 2014 Exactly what I have been saying for a few years now Joey! Just back from doing the deed now... polling station is pretty slow. HH

HH Same here, just got back... Not too many folks at the polling station except a small bus of seniors from a local retirement home. G
mosquito Posted June 12, 2014 Report Posted June 12, 2014 (edited) Done, hope there is enough worried about the future that get out that the Liberals become third party.. fourth if green get a seat . Two interesting videos about the LIberals The education system... I love the Wynne intro... what a bunch of distorted fear mongering! http://www.sunnewsnetwork.ca/video/3618360267001 How much is $1,000,000,000 http://www.sunnewsnetwork.ca/video/featured/straight-talk-and-hard-news/868018287001/just-how-much-is-1-billion/3618069104001 Edited June 12, 2014 by mosquito
Twocoda Posted June 12, 2014 Report Posted June 12, 2014 Make it count !!! Be heard...Enough is enough
Big Cliff Posted June 12, 2014 Report Posted June 12, 2014 Sue and I just got back from doing our part. To all of you that did not cast a valid ballot thank you for making our two even more important, at least you didn't vote against us!
craigdritchie Posted June 12, 2014 Report Posted June 12, 2014 Did my civic duty over lunch break. Now, if there's any justice in the world, Wynne will be unemployed by the end of the day.

Rod Caster Posted June 12, 2014 Report Posted June 12, 2014 (edited) I think the PC's will get a minority. Hope they do a better job over the next four years. Having the two left parties as opposition will luckily make it difficult for them to get some of their crazier ideas pushed through. I really hope the left doesn't make a coalitian; that would be a disgrace. I declined my ballot, which to me is essentially a vote for PC since I think the liberals will get third place.

A declined ballot is a nothing ballot, it isn't a vote for the PCs, it gets thrown in the garbage with the Tim Horton's cups! You might as well have written in "Tim Horton" and put an X beside it.
bushart Posted June 12, 2014 Report Posted June 12, 2014 Actually I just voted and seen an envelope on the desk titled---declined ballots---apparently they are counted
Joeytier Posted June 12, 2014 Report Posted June 12, 2014 Actually I just voted and seen an envelope on the desk titled---declined ballots---apparently they are countedLol! What's that old saying about your mouth reaching farther than your ears??? I won't be declining my ballot, and I certainly won't be going red or blue either
Big Cliff Posted June 12, 2014 Report Posted June 12, 2014 Actually I just voted and seen an envelope on the desk titled---declined ballots---apparently they are counted As nothing but a declined ballot, nothing X infinity = nothing!
davey buoy Posted June 12, 2014 Report Posted June 12, 2014 (edited) Just finished voting.I have to so I can complain the rest of the year.Wasn't easy but the best as far from what i saw.Get out guys,or say nothing!!!! . Edited June 12, 2014 by davey buoy
Rod Caster Posted June 12, 2014 Report Posted June 12, 2014 You haven't looked up 'declined' ballot yet have you? They don't throw them in the garbage. hahaha. Time for some reading Cliffy They get counted and are a valid voting option as is written within the electoral legislation. It's not going to happen, but if 'declined' won the majority of a riding, I can guarantee there would be consequences. All you are telling me by saying that any valid voting option is a waste is : vote PC, vote PC, vote PC. Some people don't want to support the local or provincial PC's, Libs, Green or NDP and my ballot had no other options. At least my opinion was counted unlike a non-vote. I'm ok with the message it sent, as insignificant as it may be. I'll bet this election has more declines than ever seen before. It will show disatisfaction with the
bushart Posted June 12, 2014 Report Posted June 12, 2014 (edited) Whatever---because I seen the envelope and asked the question does not mean I declined my ballot Remember the definition of ass---u---me Edited June 12, 2014 by bushart
bushart Posted June 12, 2014 Report Posted June 12, 2014 Ya know what---I do respect Rod Caster's decision---because---he thought about it ----and acted upon it---AND IT WAS HIS Ya see that's part of being in a democracy I did'nt see him start one of these Conservative mudslinging campaign threads---that so many are into---and I will stand corrected if somebody finds one started by another party supporter Throw mud---mis-information and try to get everyone to think like them RC---we may not have voted the same---but you have my respect The Painter
Gerritt Posted June 12, 2014 Report Posted June 12, 2014 There are many that chose no party. Can't say I blame them, crap is crap regardless of what colour it is, it is still crap. I don't want to vote for crap. I performed my democratic duty, by declining my vote. Which I have every right to do. Later when u are all complaining about whoever wins power. Just remember you chose to vote for crap. G

G Exactly,other than saying no party,you may of well stayed home IMO.They may look at the numbers ,but what can they do to change things next time around?I need to complain if need be,not sit on the sidelines.That's just me though...Don't like that option.
fishnsled Posted June 12, 2014 Report Posted June 12, 2014 I'll bet this election has more declines than ever seen before. That would not surprise me at all. I've voted and have my right to complain till the next election. It would not surprise me if people toss their votes at the last minute to the NDP as they did with Bob Rae. People certainly must be done with the Liberals (for now) and for those afraid of the PC platform, how will they vote? Perhaps not at all, will be interesting to see what kind of turn out we have.

I heard this morning the big three were to close call.You may be right
Joey Posted June 12, 2014 Report Posted June 12, 2014 Well if declined votes are supposed to be more than ever, they'd better hurry up. I voted after work, and did not spoil my vote, but asked after voting how many people declined or spoiled their vote so far and they said none!!!
bushart Posted June 12, 2014 Report Posted June 12, 2014 Maybe enough declined ballots Will spawn a new party looking to enact change

As much as I want,I can't see any benefit coming from it.Hopefully it may mean something? I felt that way but chose to do the other.
