anyone else disgusted with the low voter turnouts in Ontario municipalities?
London 25.5% out of 281,000+ eligible voters
Welland 25.8% out of 42,000+ eligible voters
St. Catharines 26.3% out of 100,000+ eligible voters
Niagara Falls 27.5% out of 68,000+ eligible voters
Toronto
29.1% out of 1,890,000+ eligible voters
Windsor 31.5%
Hamilton 35.3% out of 405,000+ eligible voters
Ottawa 43.7% out of 722,000+ eligible voters
The local paper had the audacity to put the headline: Democracy Wins!
Unless 2/3 of people vote, it's truly pathetic.
It took me 6 minutes to walk to the polling station and 3 minutes to vote from the time I arrived. There's truly no excuses in Canada where we don't have the wait times of USA.
