Thank you, Kelownaelection.com, for making voting so much easier. Our family is environment and animal-friendly. Unless these issues are highlighted in a prominent way as you've done in this website, no one would know the difference. We're voting green and compassionate!

This is an excellent site! It is well-conceived and well-designed. Most importantly, it inextricably ties ethics to politics, a necessary 'gordion knot' that needs to remain prominent in the minds of both politicians and voters!
