municipal election results vancouver, election, vision

I reside in Vancouver, so I'm only commenting on the Vancouver results.

Another 4 years of Gregory Robertson's leadership... not sure what else is under the pipeline besides the Broadway subway system?  In my opinion I question the results as I thought / heard a lot of complaints against the way Vision handles things, yet I guess the other two is simply a little too 'new' to others?

Quest

Vision is wearing thin on the election, although voters allow Gregor Robertson to stay on as mayor for another term.

If he doesn't do his job properly, he will be oust by the end and NPA will come on board.

I'm not hesitate to vote for LaPointe next time RE: NPA to become the next mayor, if I am to choose the lesser of 2 evils.

Q.

I'm disappointed at the result too...
another 4 years...

Considering the vote distribution:

I think Gregor wins most of the votes at the downtown Eastside and the Grandview Woodland neighborhood, and NPA wins in majority as you moves towards the west side.  If NPA's mandate presents an approach in addressing social housing issues, it will definitely be a different 4 years.
