ooooooh, politics.....scary. Just in time for Halloween. Next I'll start a thread about religion and we'll see if it gets any hotter than the usual "skidoo is better than polaris" debate.

Anyone bother to vote? Anyone care? I think voter turnout is usually 27%, so I'm guessing no.

Second that, no vote=shut yer trap. I did vote for Mandel before, but I don't like the way decisions are made behind doors and stuffed down our throat. That, and I'm not paying for a billionaire to build a "coliseum".

Didn't vote last time, no one worth voting for. This time, no one i'd like to vote for. Have decided I will vote and add my own option "NONE of the above!" :d See what happens, I encourage other to do the same, atleast it's voting :p

They are all a bunch of rich a$$hole liers that don't give 2 shits about anyone but themselves. ALL of them are the same whether it's municipal, provincial, or federal.

Man it would be funny to think of Mandel having an account on Snow and Mud. I would love politicians to hear how real people feel, not just the usual crazies that take the time to write letters and harass them with phone calls.

I don't know all the candidates, and I can't vote in Edmonton, but there is one guy that I could see on this site. That BONAR guy is an MMA fighter, military guy, and has been hitting the night clubs to talk to younger people and encourage them to vote. I thought that was pretty fresh.

Ya they are to stupid and arrogant, or just don't care what people think other then at election time. Been working at the legislature a lot lately, if I seen steady eddy I would be HAPPY to tell him what I think of him, best candidate there was but still regret voting for the idiot. Ralph Klein was about the only politician I have any respect for.

Fawk....

Had this great reply and got kicked out. Lost the reply.

Bottom line, not more liars, cheats, or thiefs. Going for younger, and less connected to special interests or in it for personal gain.

Daryl Bonar for Mayor.

If the same 20% that voted Mandel and Co. in go out and vote again, that gives coucil absolute power. Go vote and let them know your watching their actions. May not be any good candidates in your mind, but one IS better than the rest.

VOTE!

If I lived in Edmonton i would NOT vote David Dorword. He came up to me at a united way campaign I took my school kids too and he acted like he was doing us a favor by being there and told us we were doing a great job by helping "these" people. Oh and he was working on a place where "these" people could go afterschool and afterwork to go like a gym....so my friend looked this place up and its not even finished being built and he will be charging admission rates that "these" people he is talking about wont be able to afford. I was so offended by him and his campaign!

I also dont know who to vote for. I find this year the electorals are very quiet in the campaigning aspect of things and i have no idea who to vote for in Spruce Grove!
