Thomas D. Embree 🇨🇦

After ~three years trailing the Conservatives, the Liberal Party of Canada is back in the lead. If an election were held today, Liberals would win 176 seats to the Conservatives 133.

An election is about to be called, and we could be voting as soon as April 28th or May 5th.

I'm an NDP supporter and will always vote NDP, but I am fine if someone wants to vote Liberal. Whoever you vote for, don't vote Conservative.

Anyone But Conservatives!

@thomasembree This time, because this election is so important, and because so much is at risk, the safest vote is a vote for the Liberals.

@thomasembree Sometimes an election is too important to split the vote, whether this is one of those is up to you. I intend to vote Liberal, but if the NDP were leading in my riding I would vote for them despite being a red tory. Food for thought.

@thomasembree I am also an NDP supporter, but this time, I will vote for whichever candidate is most likely to defeat the Conservative candidate. The goal this time is to kick PP to the curb - the consequences of not doing that are far too great.

@thomasembree In my riding, it will be whoever is closest to the CPC dork. If the LPC candidate is polling ahead of the NDP, I'm voting Liberal. If not then NDP. If the I Promise to Do Nothing Party or a Marxist-Leninist candidate was polling second, I'd vote for them too. If we had proportional representation, I'd vote Green.

The only way we'll get a candidate on the left elected is by not splitting votes on the left, and even then it's a long shot. #rural #Ontario
