I see the same thing. I either get the posts from the Anybody But Conservative crowd or the Trudeau-and-Mulcair-Suck-So-You'd-Better-Vote-Conservative crowd. In the end, no one is championing a Leader/Party based on how the party platforms match their personal ideals; they are voting because they don't like the other guy(s). I think this is the wrong approach. If one wants to advocate democracy, then one should probably vote positively and not negatively.
