 CBC radio's clip on the election has a quote from Nenshi saying that he's predicting a margin that could be as close as 200 votes.  No comment from Higgins.
 |  
Yes.  Although I think one voted for McIvor    |

			Woooo, go McIver!      
Pretty much no lineup at my polling station.  It was nice.
 
I love voting, don't know why, but it just feels damn good.

What? It's an election, not a prediction.
 
When I went in, the woman asked if I wanted the Trustee ballot, which I thought was strange. If I hadn't actually spent some time researching the candidates (thankfully, I only had 2) and actually decided who I wanted to vote for despite having no kids and not even any nieces or nephews in the Public School system, I probably would have said no. I actually took the time to make an informed choice this year, so I was definitely going to place my vote.
 
As of 4:00, 26% of eligible voters have cast their ballots, a significant increase over the same time period 3 years ago: http://www.calgaryherald.com/news/Ca...326/story.html

			Wait is Oscar Fech actually running again in Calgary?........I live in airdrie but that man is the single most entertaining drunk I have ever heard.
 The Comedy Value alone would be worth it.

+5 for Nenshi! Just got out to vote with a bunch of other co-workers.
 
He's still running, name was on the ballot anyways. If it wasn't so close between the top 3 I would have voted for him just for kicks.

			I think David Spence was also wearing a purple tie.  Pretty big coincidence that they would both choose tonight to wear purple...
