Advance polls here in South Bayview-land and across Canada were very busy today. Waits of 30 minutes were experienced at the polls at Our Lady of Perpetual Help School on Garfield Ave in Moore Park. Similar lineups occurred at Trace Manes Community Centre. The National Post says longer waits were in evidence across the country in tweets. It says “Twitter was abuzz Friday afternoon with voters alternatively applauding and lamenting snaking queues in cities such as Hamilton, Guelph, Ottawa, Toronto, Edmonton, and Vancouver.” One voter tweeted, “Couldn’t even get near my advance polling station this afternoon. I hope an indication of interest and of election day voting.”
