She's quite tenacious, drumming away at the same topic. May's argument has been that politics has become so negative, with all the personal attack ads, that people have been turned off from voting -- <i>ergo</i>, voter suppression. Mind you, she omits her own role in levelling very personal attacks on the PM.<br />-- Gabby in QCAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5761498836067676504.post-20339967621084570772012-03-06T04:15:11.413-08:002012-03-06T04:15:11.413-08:00Gabby this is very significant the angry voters &...Gabby this is very significant the angry voters "ripped Up their voter information card" DUH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!<br />no robocall involved<br />also Elizabeth May in article from Guelph Mercury was accusing Prime Minister Harper of tactics her American freinds call "voter Suppression" imagine Lizzy May<br />playing the dumb card while really being ever so clever<br />we appreciate your investigative work Gabby you have uncovered a Hornets nest<br />fhAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5761498836067676504.post-85516708120932854972012-03-05T22:19:28.043-08:002012-03-05T22:19:28.043-08:00Maybe your praise was premature, Bec and Fh ...
I...Maybe your praise was premature, Bec and Fh ...<br /><br />I just finished reading this article http://bit.ly/AugoKo<br />« ... In Mathews' sworn statement, he describes an interview with Central Poll Supervisor Laurie Rotenburg, who was running the polls at the Old Quebec Street Mall in Guelph when 150 to 200 deceived voters showed up to vote.<br />"He observed that many of the misdirected voters responded with anger that a dirty trick had been played," Mathews wrote. "Many were upset. Some electors just stormed out of the polling location. Several ripped up their Voter Information Card."»<br /><br />So, it appears the Old Quebec Street Mall was indeed used as a polling station, although from some accounts I read I assumed there was no polling station at that location, which is why reports stated people were sent to the wrong place. Instead what was meant, it seems, is that some people were sent to voting location X when their actual voting location was Y.<br /><br />Oh well, as I said in my initial comment, I'm confused by this entire episode ... but I still have a nagging suspicion some third parties may have been involved.<br />-- Gabby in QCAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5761498836067676504.post-19391078277980662622012-03-05T21:41:54.181-08:002012-03-05T21:41:54.181-08:00http://www.guelphmercury.com/news/elections/articl...http://www.guelphmercury.com/news/elections/article/514880--green-party-leader-urges-guelph-s-youth-to-cast-ballots<br />link<br />fhAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5761498836067676504.post-39965266606267175762012-03-05T21:33:38.570-08:002012-03-05T21:33:38.570-08:00Doesn't everyone know the only way a conservat...Doesn't everyone know the only way a conservative could ever possibly get elected is if only stupid people show up to vote him in and all the elite, super intellegent are sent to the wrong polling location by robots?

Maybe I shouldn't believe the CBC when Solomon said they called the US company and the company said they had not done any work for the Liberals, I don't know. <br /><br />Also, it's not being made crystal clear that the Liberals' harassing robocalls to their own supporters may have been done UNINTENTIONALLY. The way it's being presented by some Conservatives, it sounds like the Liberals' sabotaged their own election prospects, which is of course ridiculous.<br />-- Gabby in QCAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5761498836067676504.post-60825422862554678852012-03-05T20:37:34.526-08:002012-03-05T20:37:34.526-08:00Gabby you are a top notch detective send this info...Gabby you are a top notch detective send this information to the Conservatives<br />fantastic<br />fhAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5761498836067676504.post-39128032262640451562012-03-05T20:36:46.257-08:002012-03-05T20:36:46.257-08:00As usual Gabby, you are our best researching, fore...As usual Gabby, you are our best researching, forensic weapon.<br /><br />That is a huge find and could be the smoking gun.<br /><br />I think you should be put on the payroll rather than many MEDIA researchers, MP's, bureaucrats,EC officials and then they be questioned as to why THEY haven't found this gem.Bechttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16197428781361903395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5761498836067676504.post-63032334662499825042012-03-05T20:10:27.933-08:002012-03-05T20:10:27.933-08:00I'm confused and somewhat O/T but ... in wande...I'm confused and somewhat O/T but ... in wandering around with Google's help I came upon this article (notice the date of the article Mon Apr 11 2011):<br />http://bit.ly/gPiea3<br />"Tony Saxon, Mercury staff Mon Apr 11 2011<br />Green party leader urges Guelph’s youth to cast ballots<br />GUELPH — The Conservative party doesn’t want young people to vote, Green party leader Elizabeth May said during a brief campaign stop in Guelph on Sunday.<br />“The Conservative strategy is to try and keep young people at home (on voting day),” May said. ..."<br /><br />What caught my attention was at the bottom of the article:<br />"Advance polls in Guelph<br />Advance polls will be held April 22, 23 and 25 at Guelph Lake Commons, <b>Old Quebec Street mall</b>, West End Community Centre and the Best Western Royal Brock Hotel and Conference Centre."<br /><br />Wasn't the <b>Old Quebec Street mall</b> the wrong polling station people were apparently misdirected to?<br /><br />So I checked ...<br />http://bit.ly/wReZkO<br />"...

Due to a projected increase in voter turnout your poll location has been changed. Your new voting location is at the old Quebec Street mall at 55 Wyndham Street North." <br /><br />Just to be sure, I checked a different source:<br />http://natpo.st/z7vap6<br />« Transcript of a bogus call sent to a voter in Guelph on federal election day, May 2, 2011.<br />“This is an automated message from Elections Canada.
