As you all know, voting day way was Tuesday. I say "as you all know", because most people who read my blog are either living in Canada or Canadian, and everyone I know are awesome, wicked cool, intelligent people, so of course you voted. I'm actually not being sarcastic for once.
My voting experience this year had many similarities and differences than previous years.
Similarities:
-the person I voted for didn't get elected. Instead the Conservative did. Surprised?
-voting was kind of a fun experience in terms of community. I met some nice folks in line, and chatted with some neighbours. An enjoyable side effect of voting.
-I looked like an idiot in sweats and a helmet. If I had known it would take that long, I would have taken off the helmet. (I voted post-cold bike ride).
Differences:
-It took almost an hour! The lady working the polling station had to have been at least 250.
-You had to have your voter registration card to even get in the building. Phew - I had mine. Otherwise you had to wait in another giant line, and that one was out in the cold.
I'm not sure if this will work, but I'll try to add a not so subtle hint as to who I voted for.
Ps. Clearly I'm backlogged on blog material. Tuesday was a while ago. I really wanted to go to Toronto this weekend for Capitals practice weekend, and I was super close. In the end, I have work stuff that can't get moved, and I had to ixnay the idea. I'm going to have to work this weekend to not be super grumpy that I am not there.
