Doug Ford keeps on getting reelected, his brother was the mayor of Toronto despite the drugs and overall unseriousness… I mean why do people elect these guys? Is it for the memes and laughs?
I’m being totally serious when I ask this btw. What does the average Doug voter’s rationale for getting this guy in office? Same with former Rob Ford voters. Who voted for Rob Ford? Why?
Edit: TLDR of the answers seem to be:
- Horrible effect of fptp, vote split between liberals, ndp and the greens
- Low voter turnout
we don’t need more pointless MPPs, thank you.
Yes we do. Don’t hate democracy.
I dunno, I live in SK and we have more politicians than Manitoba, BC and Alberta combined. Doesn’t seem like it helps at all.
