As a cartoonist put it many years ago; "4 turkeys and only 3 bullets..." So in the end, we'll be stuck with on of them (as opposed to the Americans that have two turkeys and only one bullet) :roll:

We definitely have two at least. One for deciding who not to elect, and one to decide we elected the wrong guy.

we get the occasional 3 turkeys... but more often than not it doesn't get media coverage enough to run through the election

Ralph Nader has run as an independent candidate, and Bob Barr is currently running under the Libertarian Party. There are <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constitution_Party_(United_States)">more</a> <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_Party_(United_States)">parties</a>, but they're statistically insignificant.

I wanted to vote for the NeoRhino party.

I think if I have some spare time next time, I'll be our riding's representative.

FROM PARTY TO PARTY UNTIL VICTORY!

(even with Oto's objections I'm sure he would vote for the NeoRhinos)

I voted.

I think if you don't vote it should be a default for "None of the above"

Although it may seem sad .... somehow i believe they all had good reason. This election was a fucking gong show to begin with. And it didn't get any better towards the end ...why?
Jack layton acted like he was a cage fighter or something.
Dion was like a freaking angry cat hissing at everyone.
May looked like she wanted to bake cookies for the whole country and Harper is a cold bastard who doesn't even hug his children.
And it wasn't even scheduled! Like a month before the election they were like "btw, election in a month." : /
