How do Freeland and Gould, respectively, only get 188 and 190 votes in their own ridings? When a cult shifts leaders, they really don’t fool around. Or, perhaps, that explains the 250,000 who didn’t vote?
Martin,
My guess is that most of the problems were due to the Canada Post app, which was a miserable failure. I heard that some people tried multiple times to vote and never succeeded. However, it would be interesting to know how many of the almost 400,000 Liberals tried to vote.
But that doesn’t explain the percentage Art got in those two ridings.
Martin,
True. I think those two ridings could see the direction of the flow and simply went with it. To me that is troubling. By doing so, it was a slap in the face to two other leadership candidates who happened to be the local MP. In short, far more loyalty to Carney than to their own MP but that’s Liberals for you: anything and everything to hold on to power. That’s why they’re such a formidable, to use a polite word, adversary.
The Trumpian nickname thing should be enough to get you kicked off this site. Mr. Kinsella?
It’s very strange.
I think people voted with beating Poilievre in mind, and maybe not as much just a vote for the candidate they liked the most – liberals really want to beat Poilievre, they can’t stand him.
