    Welcome
In summary, two hours before the polls close in Quebec, advanced polls are projecting a Conservative government. The outcome is surprising given the backlash against American conservatism. The speaker just returned from voting with similar views as the other person's views of the conservatives. Despite voting, the speaker believes that Harper winning means that everyone is in trouble. It is surprising how the government can be predicted accurately before all votes are in, and the speaker expresses frustration with the electoral system.

NDP with 20% of votes gets 30 seats. BLOC with 5% of votes, gets 50. Something's wrong here. Time for the electoral reform,
