Burrill is canvassing in his own seat two days before the election. Make if that what you will.

Isn't there an incumbent Liberal in the riding?

Yes, but he's had a scandal and the riding is a very, very good match for Burrill's style of Dipper. It should have been an easy pickup in my opinion.

I was a bit confused because the only MLA with a major scandal I knew about was Andrew Younger.  Stroink's scandal sounds like the sort of thing to me that the media and a few 'social justice warriors' play up but the vast majority of the public couldn't care less about.

Anybody know of any radio stations that will be broadcasting the election coverage? Maybe the CBC.

Yes, it wasn't a scandal scandal. But the point remains, it's a relatively favourable seat for the NDP to put a leader in.

Momboquette is in third in Sydney-Whitney Pier. Looks like the Grits union-busting is helping the Dippers - they're way up. It's only one poll though.

I was trying to remember why this sounded familiar to me.

Down goes Burrill! Down Goes Burrill! (Down goes Frazier!, Down goes Frazier!)

I thought it was Frazier-Ali, not Frazier-Foreman.

The PC candidate is running away in Queens-Shelburne, which was an NDP seat.
