This Is A False Dichotomy

While I do agree with concept of strategic voting, I cannot abide by your selection in this riding.
Let me explain.
The selection you have made, the NDP, is a good, solid, progressive party, but the problem is that they are represented in Hamilton Mountain by a truly horrible MP. Chris Charlton only has her office open until 1:00pm in the afternoon daily. She doesn't respond to email or phone calls and been a ghost in Parliament. While trying to get assistance from her office, her staff were rude to me and refused to help be because I voted for the Green Party in the 2006 election.
I cannot vote for this person. I cannot.
I generally vote Green, but the overall concept of this project is correct. We have to work together to beat the Tories, and our local Green Candidate cannot win this riding. The Liberals here are running a very good campaign and their candidate Tyler Banham is really eating into the NDPs vote.
I recommend to everyone that voting Liberal on Hamilton Mountain is the best alternative here. We can 1) prevent and Tory majority and 2) Prevent a lacklusture, overly partisan MP from succeeding and winning again.
I hope many of you will join me.
