Realpolitik of the PR referendum deadline & why NOT a fair vote? - Skook...
Strong talk about the political geography of the incoming returns and why they are the way they are.... and the HUGE problems for many to be able to vote and about how many weren't even told when they easily could have been.
That there is NO GOOD REASON to end voting TOMORROW when there are so many *TENS* *OF* *THOUSANDS* of eligible voters who cannot get to Services BC during its few opening hours....relative to how hard people have to work to survive, or deal with poverty or family and all that, or are alienated indigenous nations as I believe to be why the northwest is lowest... and I'll bet Bulkley-Nechako is, too.... Cariboo maybe not, depends on the engagement level of the First Nation and indigenous peoples involved, or not.... Lots not.
The big issue is why? And that is a much deeper and far more disturbing issue as to "who is not voting".
Rich white areas are, that's for certain... start asking who lives in the areas where the returns are low.
and someone tell me why there's any legal or practical reason the vote can't go on until New Years... and balloting locations can't be available on Sundays... where the disenfranchised to get to them can get.
The current situation is a farce.. if it fails, I will re-mount my drive to find a judge to order an extension and more ballotiing places and fair outreach to ALL citizens.
not just to the party diehards who are who's left on the so-called "voters list" who got a preferential mail-out and time to get to Services BC... or to call to get a ballot sent.
Grossly unfair.
But I have high hopes for the new generation and appreciate all my interactions with all kinds of British Columbians... I wish peopl;e would WAKE UP about this UNFAIR referendum... why did only 60.5% of eligible voters get preferential treatment?
The new, and young, and older 'foriegn' voters all see it, as with any American.
Folks here are just too damned submissive to convention and the subvert b.s. that's built into things like this referendum.
Quel bourgeois.
closed with some Chinook Jargon phrases, which I'll be teaching more of.....
