We ran two by-elections recently in Repentigny and London North Centre. We wanted to track how often vouching occurred. In London North Centre about 2,800 people actually registered on polling day. The numbers we got back showed that a little over 100 people were vouched for across the riding, and there were basically one or two at each poll. One poll had about 11, but that was a seniors residence. It is really not something we see occur very often, at least based on that analysis.
On December 7th, 2006. See this statement in context.
