Or do ndp supporters realized that the liberals have quite a few shared ideals as the conservatives?
I'm just wondering if the majority of people have actually looked into the other parties, or have just taken facebook posts to be their guiding principle?
As I said before, I have no issues with people voting to oust someone, but I have known people to not know who they were voting for, and then bitched when they did something that was clearly stated in their platform.

Voting liberal in my riding would be a waste because he is so far back in the bolls in my riding. NDP are first and the Cons are second. Having actually talked to the con candidate and see current MP who was a member of the con party until he left the party because Christians where being prosecuted I cannot let the con win. Also voting NDP in my riding would actually help the liberals because that would be one less seat for the cons. Also if the election is close between the Libs and Cons some NDP MP's would support the LIbs and maybe even switch parties.
Check this out an 11 year old in Calgary interviews her local candidates for her you tube channel. 3 do the interview. One backs out. Guess what party they are from? An MP is a public servant, so to serve the public. Talking to the public is a key part of that. Looks like some parties don't understand that.
