Temper tantrums. Come out of the closet Steve, please?

I was hoping he would explain why he had Rob Ford at his event.

Someone must be working on a Downfall parody about now.

Yeah, that ought to go over well with Fraud Nation.

Oh there is no such thing as bad publicity to THAT crowd.

Masked cowboy votes at advance poll.

Like most people seeking attention this fellow must have been disappointed when he voted without issue.

 

[BurlOak]

Just voted for change.

Did you see any Candidates campaigning at your polling station?

This would be orders of magnitude worse than a low level campaign worker breaking the rules - so I would guess it would never happen.

You mean Ford-style tactics?

Illegal to videotape? Guess they don't want the voters to be recognized as they vote. Maybe that's why they allow faces to be hidden? In case they are recorded.

(I'm confused!)

It's part of the same rule that bans taking Instagrams/Snapchats of ones own ballot or other people's ballot. Still, this smells like another Conservative tactic to keep the "niqab issue" in the front of people's minds.

If you want a good alibi for voting on e-day--when you do, it "shows" on the poll-by-poll tallies.

A map like that doesn't reflect advance polls.

Mainstreet Research has come out predicting a Liberal Majority on October 19th!

They were the last polling firm to still show a CPC lead in polls, so this is huge coming from them.

Is it me, or has the Conservative campaign gone pretty quiet for the last few days?

It's almost like they gave the Australian fixer the boot, and no one else has any ideas. Not that I'm following particularly closely ... but not much new is filtering in.

It must be like a coming nightmare for Harper. He got into politics because he hated Trudeau Sr. and his NEP, perceived poor treatment of Western Canada, Central Canada focus, Just Society, Charter and its supremacy of judges over politicians, multiculturalism and promotion of big govt. And now on his watch Trudeau Jr. looks to be a strong contender for majority govt.

 

[Videodrome]

A majority government? That would be something.

Harper said he will no longer be speaking to the media until the end of the campaign. He's done.

The shredders must be revving up ready to go on 24/7 - if it hadn't already. Somehow, Harper strikes me as the salt the earth type - wouldn't surprise me if he pull some shenanigans at the cusp of losing power.
