Getting out the vote.
One Last Dispatch From The Trenches. Today will be the longest day of the Ontario Provincial campaign and comes down to two things: voter apathy and GOTV.
I think the Liberals have more to fear from voter apathy than do the Conservatives, who in the past have been very good at getting out the vote.
So, get out and vote. Then make sure your friends, family and neighbours vote. Whining about Dalton isn't going to do a bit of good today. But, well planned GOTV strategies do win ridings.

And call your relatives that normally vote Conservative. Make sure they have a ride.
Call your relatives that normally DON'T vote Conservative too, and make sure THEY have a ride.
Everyone should vote, and we should all encourage everyone to vote, imho, even those whose votes will be different from ours.
I'm not voting Tory, and I don't particularly want the Tories to win, but I'd much rather see a Tory victory with 80% turnout than any other victory with 50%. Get out an vote!
EVERYBODY get out and vote!!!
CBC is reporting light voter turnout. We're seeing problems at several polls. People got two three, even five voter cards and show up several times on voter lists. Folks are not happy. Lots and lots of people not on lists. Not sure if that is problem in this riding or across the riding. Certainly not making it easy for people to vote. post a comment if you're seeing similar problem in your riding.
I'd wish you luck, but I'm not hopeful. Ontario has a record of failing IQ tests (you call them elections).
