It's true. I plugged my nose and voted Liberal. With the certainty that a Blue party dickwad was going to win in my riding, but still.

There's a lot like you. I'm going to admit that I've been voting Liberal for a few years now. I voted conservative for probably 20 years, but there's been a big shift in my voting because there's been a big shift in partisan politics in this country. Never fathomed the day I'd be voting NDP or Liberal when I was younger, but here we are. And it's not like I'm really all that Liberal or all that NDP (I'm not NDP leaning really at all - except I'm in Alberta so provincially we only effectively have two choices).

The conservatives, especially at the federal and (Alberta) provincial level are just way too gross for me though. And even if they eject the radicals at some point, I just don't trust them now. It's party rule by memes, insults, slogans, corruption and borderline racism/facism.

I'm glad 87% of partisan bootlickers voted for this guy. Because there's really not many others that will in the broader elections. I wouldn't say he's closing ground either, if anything he's furthering the gap. So this is all a weird strategy for Conservatives, at least in my irrelevant opinion.

My sentiments align with Conservatives but I've voted Liberal the last few times because of the crazies within the Conservative party.
