I did vote, but I can understand folks that really couldn't bother.

I honestly think that we would see far better turnout if we had proportional representation. What's the point of voting anything but Conservative in Calgary? We had absolutely no idea about anything this Calgary NE Conservative stood for at a constituent level, and I'm pretty sure I was the norm, and he still won in a landslide.

I wish I could convince myself that my vote actually counts for something. As it is right now, I vote so that I can bitch for the next two years. That's about it.
