Our election

[Keith Webb]

Last Saturday we held our Federal election and I couldn't resist taking this shot in a little country town polling booth:



The two chaps out the front in the deck chairs were representing opposing parties, but were spending a happy afternoon chatting together.

Many polling booths have the mothers clubs cooking sausages for the hungry voters, and whichever way you vote, I was reflecting on how fortunate we are to live in a place where the sausage sizzle is more powerful than the sub machine gun.

Incidentally, for you Canucks, the Liberal Coalition was returned to Government. Contrary to your situation, the Liberals here are the Conservatives.
