    How do you interpret the results? If 68000 ballots were sent out and 25000 sent back in with only 13000 voting to keep the status quo - does that mean the majority wants the single desk? What about the other 55000 votes? Or the other 43000? How do you figure all of this out?

    The cwb will make a gong show of this one way or another.

      The stupid ones are those who destroy or mis-direct their ballots to Ritz or other MPs instead of voting. Squawking about the vote not being fair is so dumb and does not help. There are mistakes made I'm sure but they can be rectified if one really wants them to be.

        Doesn't voting and sending in the ballot validate a bullshit process based upon gerymandering, ballot favoring, voter list compilation favoritism, and pandering to media

        Why endorse the CWB process?

          "Arguing over over the existence of the plebiscite" is the REAL point.

          If you really understand the issue, it boils down to a simple premise: one shouldn't have to vote over whether we own the grain we grow.

          If you concede to voting on the issue....you've already forsaken ownership.

          How about your land? Want to have a vote? Pars

                Sorry for the typo.

                knows better and always corrects me!
