It's just possible that an extra surge of votes could put anti-long-gun registry* "Game Changer" Candice Hoeppner over the top.
Posted by Kate at December 10, 2010 3:23 PMDone. And thank you for being a voice of sanity in the long gun registry debate, MP Candace Hoeppner.
Candace Hoepner currently in second place, at 30.37%/2,343 votes, with Wikileaks in the lead with 30.6%/2,,361 votes.
C'mon, SDA'ers! Do your civic duty and vote for Hoepner, the anti-long-gun registry candidate! Let's make our voices heard at the CBC Min. of Propaganda!

Posted by: MikeinAppalachia at December 10, 2010 4:38 PM32.22% at the moment. Just slightly ahead of the pack.
Posted by: Louise at December 10, 2010 4:43 PMHappy to help this thing along in the right direction.
Posted by: Colin from Mission B.C. at December 10, 2010 5:05 PMmaybe the CBC will be more careful with their polls next time. I agree with bartinsky, too!
Posted by: sonofAtilla at December 10, 2010 5:14 PMMore than happy to skew their results but always feel I need a shower after being on their website.
Posted by: Rick Rae at December 10, 2010 5:25 PMand another successful "surge" ...
Posted by: marc in calgary at December 10, 2010 5:38 PMas one commenter on there asked, why is wikileaks in that poll??
Posted by: GYM at December 10, 2010 5:41 PMwhy is Rae on the list---guy will do anything to get his pic in the news. I know him.
Posted by: robert saw at December 10, 2010 5:44 PMShe's way ahead of #2 now.
It's a meaningless, CBC, small mind poll. But it is soooo satisfying to see the effect that SDA has on media.

and it's all done without a $900 million budget!

Posted by: ridenrain at December 10, 2010 9:59 PMMust be the CBC "Holiday" party...nobody is checking to see if SDA has taken over the poll.
I expected it to be closed earlier.
I don't usually link to CBC polls anymore. They have a habit of coming up with thousands of instant votes.

bureaucratic fundraising at it's worst, trying to propagate Cretins folly

Posted by: dwright at December 11, 2010 12:01 AMI guess there aren't too many people from BC who frequent the CBC site as I thought that Bill VanderZalm would have been the most significant person in that list given the success of his anti-HST petition here. Also, VanderZalm was probably responsible for getting rid of moonbat Campbell.
Willy VanderZalm lost it years ago! He lost my support when he voted for Meech Lake. When I asked him why he voted for it his response was "I owe it to Canada because they took us in". That was the depth of his thinking.
Posted by: ct at December 11, 2010 10:05 AMWay late to the party, Kate, but the poll is still up and I voted for Hoeppner.
However, loki is right. The game changer in that list is Vander Zalm. Whatever he did or didn't do in the past, his current activity led to the ouster of a sitting provincial premier.
