Kudos to the pollsters who called it.  With 70% of voters choosing not to 
choose there is a clear victor for mayor and the direction of the City (no 
one and none respectively).  Why did voters decide not to vote?  Good 
question.  Southwest voters seem content with the status quo but going 
through the low voter turnout in other Wards is a sad commentary on the 
current state of the local democracy.  If the people in North are content 
with the current situation then all must be well.

Toil on...
