Frak. We're doomed. #AbElection

So there was an election here today and the polls closed fully 2 hours ago and in my (urban) riding they have counted...

30 ballots

Seriously something has gone sideways somewhere even if they say everything is running normally.

What is it? Lack of scrutineers? Is collating results from all the new tabulators used at advanced polls a tricky process?

@Perrin49 I think that is a good idea. The plot of this #ABelection movie is just plodding along like watching paint dry and the story so far just sucks.

Hey, instead of watching the #alberta election I may just watch Up! instead. It's the 14th anniversary of it's release. Balloons always make me happy.

And I can't do a darn thing about the #abelection so there's no use dwelling on the results. I'll be slapped in the face with them soon enough.

And hey - balloons!

Advance voting polls are open in AB.

I voted earlier today, took five minutes. Nice to see a steady stream of people.

Also nice to see blue skies and the improved air quality.

I joined NextDoor a few years ago to know about community BBQs, lost puppies, folks in need, etc.
Now it's become a shriek chamber of mostly rightwing aggression. This #alberta election sure is showing me who my neighbours are 🙄

"The vote is not just about right versus left or conservative versus progressive.

It’s about whether Albertans want to place their trust in democratic institutions or continue to erode the safeguards that protect us from arbitrary abuses of power. Any policy debates are moot without settling that question."

#Alberta #UCP government claims that the previous government "raised taxes 97 times" yet there is no proof of this assertion. While it is common knowledge that the #UCP voting base does not care about turth, sane voters do care.

Come on #DanielleSmith, why can't you back up your claims. You're not lying, again, are you?

Oh yeah, and I guess there's an important election here in Alberta as well, but...that whole thing is just so disgusting and rigged that it's hard to motivate myself to even look. #ABElection
