The election is over

There is nothing new about a candidate winning a multi-candidate election

I’ve just read the critique of our Mayor by the Reverend David Fitzsimmons.  His comment on percentage of votes is really off the wall.

I read lot of news through my Yahoo email account, and the lunatic fringe from the Liberal and NDP supporters that can’t fathom Mr. Harper having won a majority, sit down, one after another and start throwing around percentages.

The funny part of all that is had their pet politician won by that same amount they would not be bothered in the least.

There is nothing new about a candidate winning a muliti-candidate election with more that two people contesting.  It happens all the time and is part of the political process.

The election is over, Mr. Jakeway is our mayor – live with it.
