And they have 5 votes. Again, I'm just sayin'. Interesting, very interesting!
And what is the population of old Australia?

I'm glad you said 'approximately', because I'm quite certain that it is, in fact, 305,701,168.

Yup, with all the snow on the ground in most parts of Canada now, a good eBook in front of a cozy fire with a cup of tea (or other warming liquid) sounds awfully good to me!

Voters could be wooed with interesting election promises. But what could this be in our case? Chocolate for voters? Free llama rides? New socks?

Nope nope nope. We don't bribe people to vote. Goes completely against the grain. Its a privilege that should transcend bribes. You should have enough pride in your country to do so EVERYTIME the occasion comes up.

Unless of course, you live in Chicago...........

Karma usually works...

I might have to create a couple of dummy accounts, just to vote some more
