    ...I have to vote. Again.

    I'm only mentioning it here because I'm feeling rather guilty for not catching at least one of the debates this go around. Alternatively, from what I've been witness to, it's (another) fairly nasty drawn-out campaign.

    Due to my location, my vote doesn't have much weight. It's depressing. I've also no real idea why I'm posting this. Perhaps too much wine.

    things are quiet until hitler decides he'd like to invade russia
    so, he does
    the russians are like "OMG WTF D00DZ, STOP TKING"
    and the germans are still like "omg ph34r n00bz"
    the russians fall back, all the way to moscow
    and then they all begin h4xing, which brings on the russian winter
    the germans are like "wtf, h4x"

    I didn't know you liked whine, MN.

    I know it is popular in France, where they regularly decant a newly popular vintage of red....white....and blue.

    Democracy is such a drag.

    Is voting compulsory where you are?

    Nah, it was wine at that time (a La Frenz Sauvignon Blanc), though I've a strawberry daiquiri right now.

    My riding is pretty much gauranteed to the Conservatives, so it doesn't matter which way I vote. I'll likely vote for the NDP, although I might vote for the Greens or another lesser-known party. The Liberal candidate here is a total cunt, so I'm not voting for him. I wish I were in the riding south of me...the Conservative candidate there is up on smuggling charges, so no one's entirely sure which way the riding will go.

    Voting's not compulsory here, though I've never not voted in a provincial/federal election.

    Good luck with your vote, MN.

    I hope you can escape your polling place without being assailed by exit-pollsters.
