In my ward, there is only one candidate that's tying themselves to a political party. His tagline is that he's "The conservative choice", and his signs look like a copy of the UCP ones. All the other candidates use colors and slogans that aren't affiliated with any particular party

exact same for me.

there was a ward 4 candidates forum streamed last night, but I can't seem to find a recording. Anyone have an idea where I can find it?

Nearly my choices as well. I just picked Senators that weren’t affiliated with PPC or CPC. That made it really easy.

Our household:

Mayor: Gondek x 2
Councillor: Mian + McAnerin
School: Hack + ?
Senate: Thunder, Pillay, Kinney + ?, ?, ?
Flouride: Y x 2
Equalization: N + Y
Time Change: Y + Y

My equalization number is off by one. Oops.

This is kind of misleading since it's not a private poll. Based on the Federal Gov't thread there are WAY more Farkas voters in here but are too ashamed to publicly state it.

Agreed, but I think it shows how anyone not voting Farkas is going Gondek, which means we have strictly a two horse race. I think it ends up being very close.

burn_this_city · 10-07-2021, 11:07 AM

People don't want to admit they voted for Farkas, deep down they know he's a Muppet but they can't overcome their reflex to vote for a conservative obstructionist.

Ward 12

Mayor: Gondek
Councilor: Spencer

Rhettzky · 10-07-2021, 11:18 AM

I haven't paid too much attention to the Equalization vote besides this article from the Toronto Sun that a friend sent to me.

https://torontosun.com/opinion/colum...nces-seriously

It's swung pretty widely to rejecting the idea on here so can I ask what people who voted no think about this one? I'll probably abstain because I'm not really informed on what they are trying to do here.

craigwd · 10-07-2021, 11:40 AM

I want to vote Damery because I like a lot of her platform but she seems to have zero personality

Slanter · 10-07-2021, 11:45 AM

IMO the equalization question is political grandstanding/BS. But it's a great opportunity to embarrass Kenney with a "no" vote, if you want to take shot at him. Same with voting for Kinney/Thunders for senate.

J epworth · 10-07-2021, 12:06 PM

Voted yesterday:

Ward 8

Mayor - Gondek
Councillor - Walcott
Fluoride - Yes
Time Change - Yes
Equalization - No
Senate - Thunders, Kinney
School - Barrett

Also was fun voting in a bar at Danish Canadian Club

GGG · 10-07-2021, 12:12 PM

In 13 do people think Unsworth has a chance?

Maclean is pretty clearly terrible but is winning the sign battle. Urquart does nothing and sways in the breeze but wouldn’t be a negative force. Unsworth would be good but not seeing enough of a presence.

If she becomes mayor she develop one

I'm voting Damery now since I am not as afraid that Farkas would benefit from that.
