So I went out and did my civic duty last night. I had previously looked at all of the party platforms and checked out the releases, backgrounds and interviews that were online for all of the candidates. I left the polling station satisfied that I had done everything I could to make an informed choice.
My choice received 14% of the vote. The Conservative candidate is a militantly anti-rights, pro-life, homophobic, racist jerk. He has the potential to be the next Rob Anders. He won with 69% of the vote, solely because of the party he belonged to.
Can somebody explain to me again how I didn't waste my time last night voting?
