That is where we get into the problem of the strategic vote. Nobody likes to talk about strategic voting, but when you are in a riding where your vote simply doesn't count but you want it to go to the next candidate or party that shares most closely your values, that is the trouble you are in. That is what I hear a lot at the door. I don't think we are talking provincial here, but I worked on provincial and federal, and it is the same response no matter which election it is: “I wish I could vote for this party, but I know they don't have a chance of winning, so I guess I'll try for my second choice, or not go out at all.”
