Since liberal winning is pretty much assured. I will vote for either npd or green for supporting palestine

If it's a two horse race in your riding between CPC and NDP or Green, that would make sense. If the CPC is polling very low in your riding, it would also make sense. If however it's a two horse race between CPC and LPC, then you may be helping PP to another seat.

NDG is very liberal. There's zero chance for CPC to win it's 68% vs 18% and the liberal candidate in NDG is anti palestine

Go NDP or Green then. I'd probably go NDP in such situation.

My riding is solid CPC v LPC race with NDP clocking at single digits so I'm gonna have to go LPC.

Didn't the ndp just very publically fire and shame someone for propalestine sentiment?

[–] small44@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Yeah, but many still support palestine. https://votepalestine.ca/candidates

Yeah, because that's a wise move given the current situation...sounds like vote splitting propaganda. In the current state of affairs, nothing is assured, use your vote to make it as sure as you can.

This reads like a conservative tactic

[–] small44@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

And you look like someone considering parties as cults

[–] k_rol@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Not at all, but I do think astrosurfing and other tactics are a thing and I want to be sure we stay alert. Sorry if you were being legitimate.

People are not influenced to that point for a random person comment

[–] skozzii@lemmy.ca -2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

And that's how the election is lost...

[–] small44@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

It's when candidate avoid certains questions and positions thst make undecided people not vote for that party
