Cue up the people insisting not voting NDP strategically is a violation of democracy itself and it is the responsibility of those voters to vote for the NDP and let the Cons win.
Exactly. The same retards that claimed the NDP/LIB pact was anti democratic, but at the same time, for the first time in a long time the govt of Canada represented a majority of the vote.
It absolutely is NOT a violation of democracy. It's people making a choice. And I would never criticize a person's right to that choice. And never admonish or blame voters for an election outcome. It us always the various party's fault for outcomes based on policy, candidates run and campaign effectiveness and messaging.
Unlike you. If the polls showed The NDP and Libs at 20% each you would be crying about it.
Is that the same people who had red lines over 'never again' that you think have red lines on all issues?
Singh has screwed himself over by saying he backs voting out Trudeau and calling for an election as soon as possible. That didn't play well with NDP supporters. Now he's stuck and must see that calling an election means the NDP would be sidelined and lose the power of minority government.
Yes.
I'm glad you agree.
LOL
No, you tend to blame shadowy manipulation by the powers that be.
No.
I don't think so.
There were people who were very, very upset that some voters might vote strategically.
It came up a lot in the French elections, for instance.
(They were also upset with politicians who might make strategic/tactical decisions about when to run and when not to.)
In the Ontario election one NDP made a public announcement they'd resign to not split the vote.
It was a smart move politically but the libs instead posted an ad asking NDP voters to just vote for them.
The parties could do this themselves.
On elections? No. Primaries? Are you going to say with a straight face the parties have never tried to manipulate primaries?
Not that I've heard, its the other way, with more people saying the liberals are being idiots.

Of course not, neither of the parties are saying use that or another similar page.
That's the point.
Its all around SM, but not in the news.
Of course, as someone who won't take information from social media and relies only on mainstream press, where would you find this out?
So in your social media feed, everyone is blaming the Liberals for not coordinating with the NDP and your conclusion from this is that no one is blaming the NDP for offering to drop out?
(Why are you linking to a page that has no commentary when saying "more people saying the liberals are being idiots"? Link to the evidence that more people are saying the Liberals are being idiots.)
