I would feel really guilty if I didn'...Sure did. I would feel really guilty if I didn't. My father taught us that it was very important, even if we didn't like the candidates. I have voted for a goofy party in protest in the past though. We should have a "none of the above" box so folks who can't deal with the parties can at least be heard.

I voted in the advance poll last week but I happened to be in the voting station today and it seemed like there was a steady stream of people going in and out. I think the turnout will be higher than usual. In Australia it is illegal NOT to vote but they make a fun day of it with fun fairs, barbecues etc. The fine for not voting is just $75 - not a great incentive if you really can't be bothered.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05224823051315463861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1605129043543619307.post-52996969005939552412019-10-21T16:59:17.887-04:002019-10-21T16:59:17.887-04:00It will be interesting to see who wins your electi...It will be interesting to see who wins your election.<br /><br />I'm dreading an election here in the UK. Can't stand either of the main party leaders but like you I always vote. They've both been such a shambles the last 3 & a half years & still haven't got our exit from the EU sorted out. Got no faith in any of them.<br /><br /><br />Winifredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12415302188575538163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1605129043543619307.post-56005039855948562052019-10-21T16:42:10.051-04:002019-10-21T16:42:10.051-04:00Well, it was a hold your nose and pick the least o...Well, it was a hold your nose and pick the least offensive candidate in my riding.<br /><br />I hope somebody gets their deposit back.<br /><br />Our province doesn't count because we have so few seats.
