Ontario Election Results 2018 in real time
As the results of yesterday’s Ontario election came in and it became clear Doug Ford’s 
Progressive Conservative party had won a majority, I recorded the reactions of my friends and collated them as they appeared, in the poem (or text) below. Readers can draw their own inferences about the politics of my social circle!
Ontario Election Results 2018
This is the worst possible timeline
…This will be much worse then (sic) we even know.
Go fuck yourself, Ontario.
Well, I’ve been voting for governments in provincial and federal elections since 1993, and my 100% failure rate is still going strong. Grotesque, Ontario
Maybe compulsory voting and proportional representation?
Based on the predictions that are coming in, all I can say is FUUUUCCCKKKK!!
Wow… Feeling a lot of stunned for my pals in Ontario.
Nice work Ontario, you ding dongs.
That was dumb.
Congratulations Ontario!
… Best case scenario: NDP gets a 15 year mandate to fix things after Ford enacts another Mike Harris-style sack of the province. Some of us may even live to see it.
…Damn… just damn…
