TheForgottenQuadrant
SouthBySouthEastVille
After the 2008 Civic Election results came in we were struck by how the City of Vancouver has come to vote not East-West but rather diagonally from NorthWest to SouthEast (see map above, which shows the GreenGregor vs. RedPeter poll-by-poll splits).
Given all that you would think that the major civic parties would do their best to field candidates from all four corners of Lotusland this time around.
But it turns out that is not the case.
How do we know this?
Because a blogger, a fellow named Chris from ‘Canadian Veggie’, has done the digging and built the maps which demonstrate that the NPA and Vision/COPE have, essentially, nobody from the SouthEast quadrant running.
Head on over to Chris’ place and have a look.
It’s great stuff.
