At this point in time I believe we're stuck with yet another Tory government. I haven't looked at the latest results as I'm a bit nervous about the chances of the incumbent Grit in my riding. Yes, I voted for her. In all the elections I've been through in my riding I think I voted NDP once, maybe twice. Anyways, I did my duty and cast my ballot this morning. The polls closed about an hour and half ago. Not that I'd be influencing any Canadian votes with my blog. Ha, ha...
I think I convinced at least one co-worker who normally doesn't vote to go out and cast his ballot. My message to him was one of "It's something you should do as part of your civic duty...and think of those who live in places where they don't have the privilege of being able to vote". His argument for not voting in the past was "Well my vote won't change anything anyways". I suppose the underlying theme to my counter-argument was "It's not all about you".
Enjoy your pop rocks, sir.

LOL. Nice title. ^_^
And good job on convincing someone to vote. The sad thing is that most people who say that their vote doesn't matter don't realize that because there are some many of them, it does make a difference.
