      Which one?

      Alvin Tedjo seems like an okay politician. Olivia got re-elected. Isn’t that something worth celebrating?

        Ottawa’s was disappointing, with getting more Sutcliffe. I really thought Leiper had a better chance to unseat him.

        Sarnia also avoided electing conservative nutjob and massive bigot Bill Dennis, which is a win. Especially considering how many elderly people live there who are overwhelmingly conservative. Mike Bradley’s 38-year tenure as mayor is finally over.

          They were really pushing online voting this year, at least where I am. I did it after realizing there was only 1 physical polling station serving a population of 130K+ but feel like they probably lost a lot of the elderly contingent. Turnout was 30K-ish, though obviously not all 130K were eligible voters. But that feels low regardless.
