Just voted. I hope my team wins, or at the very least, isn't destroyed.

I'm really curious to know what turn-out's been like so far. When I went out to vote at 9.30, there were already quiote a few people at the polling station already. And all kinds of them, too; younger people, professionals, seniors, obvious rich and poor.

- me too, was there at 9:30 and it was hoping... never seen that beforeJulesvm
- it turned into a nice day in TO, was supposed to rain. Usually means there will be more elderly voters but we will see.spot13
- I was the only person at my polling station in downtown TO. It was early and it's a small polling station... But still. Tumbleweeds.colab

It's pissing rain here in downtown Van, in my station there were probably 30 voters. I think it will pick up after the clouds part.

@ThePublics
did you vote for Hedy? People are worried that vote splitting between the NDP/Grits/Greens could let the Torries win downtown Vancouver.
- Yeah, I did, I'm worried about that as well, but the grits were leading the polls last time I checked, so it seemed the safest.********
- safe bet.********
- nothing would be worse than seeing the Torries take downtown Vanaldebaran
- I blame the greens for the tories taking any swing riding.********

I love living in a country that makes voting so easy and efficient. I recently moved so I wasn't registered, yet I was in and out in 5 minutes. No lines, no hassles.

I just heard Rex Murphy accidentally broke the Elections Canada rule twice in five minutes ...
- Strike that, it was Mansbridge giving results prematurely.Continuity

- Oh. Oops.Continuity

Well, duh, we all knew it would be a Conservative win, CTV. The question is, is it another minority?
