2010 Mayor of Toronto Election - Official Candidates List & Websites

(I thought I would re-post an updated version of this list for those who are interested...)

As things heat up in the race for the next Mayor of Toronto, I'm sure people will be looking to review the latest list of Candidates and their platforms and etc.. So I took the liberty of looking that up for you all, and posting the links and information here.

Here's the link to the Official 2010 Candidates List for the next Mayor of Toronto:

Take a look and read about the Candidates before you make your decision.  I'm not going to push for anyone or knock anyone...  This post is about information only.

If you want to know my opinions, look through my posts...  I'm sure you'll notice right away who I'm considering....  And one more thing, don't listen to the newspapers!  Lately I've been finding  -especially with the Toronto Star (yes, you Mr. Hepburn), that they've already started choosing sides with complete and blatant bias.  You should decide for yourself... Don't let them influence your decision.
