Canada

Aside from Toronto and Ottowa and Northern Ontario. At least on the last provincial election, we all voted against him without a single trace of blue on any district.

It was quite frustrating when the two biggest population centers as well as the biggest physical area all voted against him, but we were still stuck with him.

Especially weird that anybody would vote for a guy who completely ignored you for four years in favour of concentrating all his effort on the city you often hate the most.

I've met quite a few people who will complain about him and recognise that he's corrupt, but just not go and vote. Last time he won on a turnout of 43%.

He thinks he's opaque but people can see right through his machinations and manipulation.

I thought that was a generic scam text

It started with "this is Doug Ford" for goodness sake

At federal election time all parties get a list of all voters, and their contact information from Elections Canada. I assume it's true in Ontario as well.

You're seeing messages from the Conservatives because they're reasonably well organized and they're doing a decent job at fundraising.

The other parties could do it as well, but aren't. I assume it's because they don't have a decent election committee/budget, but I have no evidence of that.

Exactly. Ontarians don't want an election, and they will punish Ford by voting him in yet again.
