Election Talk

The city has been abuzz with rumours of an upcoming election. One had to be held sooner or later, and recent events assure that it will be sooner.

The media has been making all manner of speculations, much of it ill-informed or wishful thinking, coming from secondhand rumours from unnamed sources.

Who's running? Where do they stand on the issues? How do they plan to govern? Will they make great sweeping changes or will they stay the course? Whom will they appoint to the top jobs?

As with every election before it, there will be plenty of polling projections and pundit predictions, but everything rests in the hands of the voters.

Everyone's plans have been depending on the date, and now we have one: April 18.
