Worse than that, even. Idiocracy predicted a descent into mental enfeeblement taking 500 years, and 13 years later the US President in real life is dumber than the one from the movie. In 500 years I’ll be impressed if the majority of humanity hasn’t lost the capability of speech.

Yeah I'm no Liberal booster but I feel like anyone who calls Wynne incompetent or crooked is a low information voter. Her government is open to attack on many fronts, but all the personal stuff against Wynne is rooted in misogyny homophobia or both. It should be easy for the Liberals to goad Doug and/or his candidates into saying some offensive poo poo about her personally if they don't overplay their hand. E: kind of non sequitur sorry

22 minutes did a quick segment on doug's win and naturally conservative voters are mad at them again. The best comment I saw was "we really need a conservative news outlet in this country!" I was just thinking, "man, do you not see The Sun newspaper in every drat store?"

Why should Wynne get a pass for the gas plant emails? Paul Martin had to eat poo poo for the sponsorship scandal and he actually did more or less the right thing by opening an inquiry into it, whereas the Ontario Liberals have been far from cooperative.

Lol forever at the idea of "strategic voting" in a province where the absolute gold-standard of poll aggregation is Eric loving Grenier. Hey guys, my predictions had error bars a mile wide and I was still as wrong as it's possible to be, but I'm claiming 90% accuracy for the election.

So not only did Elliott win the popular vote...she won the most ridings, the things that actually decide the premiere? I'm growing increasingly confused as to what Doug Ford actually won. This points system seem like stupid crap, it's not even doing what it's suppose to do.

Except she's also claiming a bunch of votes were assigned to the wrong ridings, which definitely does matter.
