Lay off Iveson for a little while though... he saved my pizza.But the second he makes that rookie mistake because of his lack of business sense, hit him with all you got.

That's good to hear Ed! Alright more complaining, less bemoaning the fact that I elected some guy.

Al, you're allowed to complain more, since you're completely blameless in who got elected.

Sadly I didn't vote. Anything that happens I can't complain about it until the next election.

For the first time in my life, I feel like I'm actually represented in at least one level of government.
Don is totally one of the coolest people I know, and I'm sure he'll do an awesome job.
Besides, Nickel was a Deke... I mean Dick... I mean, well both.

But fuckin ANDERSON again? GAWDANG. Solely on the principle of him being an asshole of a teacher, he shouldn't be in there.

YES!
Don Iveson WON!
I'm so excited!
and no more Nickel...
it's like Christmas, only more permanent...
well, I guess I'll have to steer clear of my Dad for a while... not only did the one man he despise win (Iveson, because "he has no business sense" whatever that means... I thought being a councillor was about political advocacy, and things like road maintenance and planning, not business... but maybe that's just me), but the one man he favoured lost.
... which, in the end, means that Edmonton is better off, but still... steer clear of my Dad!
oh, and no, Par, I sort-of arbitrarily picked ward 3, with absolutely no prior knowledge of the running candidates... simply just a number that wasn't 4 or 5. Buffalo Terminator was a good bonus though.

Didn't you say that when Mandel won last time?
I am happy Nickel lost too! : )
ps - Sorry I'm such a terrible correspondant.

Holy crap, Mike Nickel lost. It's a miracle!
I think this is the first election where I've voted for the winner(s). Ever. Scary thought.

Wait, Alison, did you want to vote in ward 3 so you vote for "Thomas J. ‘the Instigator’ Tomilson"? (Previously known to many as mayoral candidate Thomas James "Buffalo Terminator" Tomilson.)
The strange this is that, with polls still uncounted, he's already surpassed his vote total from 2004.
