Toronto Municipal Election 2018: Mayor’s Race

I very much doubt there was any prospect for Faith Goldy to receive over 10% of the vote, let alone 5%, barring the "Press" becoming overtly pro-Nazi.

Looks like my 10% number was high, just as my 30% prediction for Keesmaat.
At least we can say the Press did not affect the outcome of the Mayor race.
The press likely did pull Keesmaat up a fair bit, and prevent right wing Tory votes from going to Goldy.
In a fair race, Goldy and Keesmaat would have likely been in the ~20% range with Tory still over 50%.

Dude, if 20% of voters voted for Goldy, I'd be moving to Spain.
Are you high? 20%?! hahahaa.....give me some of what you've got, the weekend's almost here.

I mean, that would be a serious social problem if that many people supported her.
 
And above all...in a ***fair*** race?!?

If that's your notion of "fairness", then I question what positive purpose you serve in Urban Toronto.

Not sure what you mean by this. Care to elaborate on the rationale behind this statement? Cheers. :)

Hey, a guy charged with hate crimes got 13% in Mississauga. He didn't come close to winning, but that is way more than Filth Moldy got.

Good thing I don't live in Mississauga, I'd be polishing off my passport.

Wait....convicted of hate crimes, or just charged with? Also, what sort of hate crimes? That term is bandied about too loosely by people of certain ideological mental constraints.

Not just "hate crime" - racist and Nazi are also bandied about quite loosely.
It's kind of funny that a candidate for Mayor was labelled a Nazi when she had her Jewish friend help her campaign.

Charged - the news and the particulars around the case is fairly easy to find online - and hate crime charges aren't something that the police will go ahead with unless the evidence is fairly unequivocal.

Goldy: Are you trying to get me to say the fourteen words, chat? Is that what this is? OK, he wants me to say--
Robertson: No. It's that-- No, I don't want you, it's just that the chat were asking you to so I thought "well, should I propose that or not?"
Goldy: OK, all right. Do you want me to do it?
Robertson: Sure.
Goldy: We must secure the existence of our people and a future for white children.
Robertson: Yeah! [laughs]
Goldy: Is that controversial though? Like, I don't see that that's controversial. Is that bad? Like, I think it's controversial to say the opposite. Like, I think it's controversial to say, like, "we must not secure our future and we must not secure the existence." Like, what? Like, that's the whole thing is that once you just think about this, like, very simply and logically you realise that it's not like "ha ha, rah rah" but these aren't sophisticated ideas at their most, like, basest point. Like, we want to survive.

Keep beating that "but so and so have Black/Jewish/Gay/Trans friends/support" line though. History is replete with examples of these alliances of convenience, and some of them didn't go so well *at all* (if you will excuse my euphemism of their fate).

Truly odious.

This is true.

I don't see what her Jewish friend has to do with anything. I don't think Faith Goldy is a Nazi because she isn't a socialist, as far as I can tell, and the Nazi Party was a socialist enterprise.*
She might, however, be a neo-Nazi as those pukes tend to concentrate on the racist ideological tenets of Nazism.

Man, I'm just glad I don't have to hear about her anymore.....right? Please. It's over.

Well thank the universe for that! The state is enough of a nuisance and adept at ruining lives as it is. The last thing we need is arrests based on easily-offended people thinking they have a right to not be offended.

Don't blame the state for what individuals themselves are the best at doing.
