It's a tossup for me. I'm going to vote, but it will be based on my local candidates. I have issues with the platforms and/or leaders of each party, so I'm going to go with the person I think will represent my area the best.

Harper may make a good Prime Minister, but only if he keeps a lid on spending and also the fanatics in his party. Martin may make a good PM if he cleans up the inefficiency and patronship in his party and actually puts money into the military. I watched the leadership debate, and after that, I decided that Layton was dangerous. He came across as an arrogant SOB. It's not impossible to correct, but he offended a lot of people with his attitude and sneer that night, including me.

I'm actually hoping for a minority government of some kind. It can be inefficient, but it will also put some kind of controls on the party with the most seats.
