Like all of Ontario, the areas is home to many battlegrounds and it's support seems to reflect the Ontario averages. Interesting to see that the Liberals may take London West according to www.threehundredeight.com
Interested in your thoughts as the area will be one that gets a lot of attention.

I had initially planned on voting NDP, but once I saw what the polls were suggesting as to who to vote for in my riding, I've changed my mind and decided to go with Liberal. My main interest is seeing Harper gone. That said, I wouldn't be unhappy if the NDP won the election, but I don't think they have a realistic chance of getting in, not with the way the polls have been going over the last three weeks.
This country desperately needs a new system of government, because it seems to be stuck in a never-ending cycle of voting in the Tories, being displeased with their performance, and then voting in the Liberals and turfing them when they don't live up to our expectations. And all we currently have as an alternative to all that is the NDP, the Greens, and other fringe parties that aren't capable of forming a government (for various reasons).
You'd think people would have learned by now to ditch this endless Tweedledum v. Tweedledee game. *sigh*
