Yup. Here the votes sometimes don't really count. Like more people can vote for your opponent, but, wait, there is some archaic technicality in the law and by george the wrong guy gets in. then we have four years of some crack head Texan killing children on some whim.

Do American elections happen every four years like clockwork and always at the same time of year? Here in Canada, a gov't can have up to five years in power and elections are called at the whim of the current gov't (usually when they feel their popularity is high enough so they can win another one). Most don't call one before three years, becuase it tends to piss off the taxpayers, and few wait until the last minute unless they're pretty sure they're going to lose anyway and just want to hang on as long as they can. ===== Catherine Toronto ______________________________________________________________________ Post your free ad now! http://personals.yahoo.ca
