It appears that vote splitting has decided that Sam Katz will continue to be mayor of Winnipeg for another term. Had there been only one opponent we may have had a new mayor.

Results
Sam Katz 55,123
Judy Washayourandyourknees 33,323
Lilian Thomas 19,212
Russ Wyatt, 14,567

That would be good news as it would get rid of one commie MP and 2 commie councillors. At least Lillian Thomas could go back to her original career, The Wicked Witch of the East from the Wizard of Oz.

oh god? really.. man oh man is the NDP just getting everyone to announce they are running to make the regular nippers get all riled up and rabid for ANYONE as an NDP mayor and then they will all quit with the garbage and only one will run and every single nipper will vote automatically?

this is just getting ridiculous already.

To me, it looks like they're hoisting different flags up the pole to see which one flys best.

The ManitobaPost? You're quoting the ManitobaPost? Why not Snott Taylor?

I though Oswald was moving to the US to be with her husband. I guess you just can't take the socialist out of Manitoba.

Or maybe the US would not let her cross the border?
