I find it somewhat tacky to complain about a widow quoting her husband in a concession speech, with no campaign going on. Move on already.

Just responding to posts directed at me bud. Chill.

On the one hand, I think high turnout is good and we want everyone to vote..........but on the other hand, I think if you're that delusional, you shouldn't be allowed to. I dunno what to do. Sometimes I think it should be a very simple civics test: Here's a blank map of Toronto; please identify your ward. Name your current councillor, name the current mayor....a couple of things like that. If you can't get them, you can't vote.

Are there any worldwide examples of places that require some sort of knowledge or IQ test in order to vote?

Nice. So Tory did quite well in south Etobicoke & south Scarborough.

I know you can't have it both ways. The ideal is to bring those people into the fold, socially, economically and politically. But voting for the Fords isn't going to solve that problem for them. I don't know the answer.

It's the great challenge of democracy, especially when we're talking about record turnout. Better to have 10,000 well-informed people vote, or those 10,000 plus another million who don't really know what's going on?; some of whom think Giorgio Mamomoliti is just doing a bang-up job down at city hall....

The most educated voted for John Tory.

You replied to TheTigerMaster's post saying that "Thought it was tacky for her to quote Jack's famous words in her defeat speech.". I responded to your post. Your post doesn't seem to be responding to any posts directed at you. Bud indeed, chill!

Super tacky.

It's interesting that Tory performed so poorly in Scarborough considering that SmartTrack was designed to cater to those voters

Not only that, but he also promised a subway.

Not that badly, he was a close 2nd in many Scarborough wards.

Awesome map.

Now, someone please do something about the contaminated water supply in Wards 1,2,7-9,11,12,41, and 42. Also, as someone who grew up in Scarborough I no longer wonder why I left after looking at this map.

The most educated voted for John Tory.

And the least educated voted for Ford. None of this is surprising, really. The irrationality and simple-mindedness of Ford Nation is the preserve of the uneducated.
I'm pretty dumb myself. University drop out, working class slave-cog, but I guess the two years of university (and subsequent stints at a college and another uni) imbued me with enough sense to at least vote for Goldkind.

Is there also a correlation to crack smoking in the deep red areas?

 

[SunriseChampion]

No, but there is a correlation between crack use and the wards that voted for Chow. Just saying.
