In a Facebook message to supporters today, Stittsville candidate Dave Lee said he is disappointed with low voter turnout on municipal election day.
“The city voter turnout was at 30%. Despite what happened last week on Parliament Hill and with Remembrance Day just around the corner, 7 out of 10 people decided to NOT exercise their privilege to vote. This is a sad sign of the times. There are a lot of young men and women laying in cemeteries around the world who gave up everything so that we may have this simple right. There is simply NO good excuse for not voting,” he wrote.
