The speeches are over, the buses are parked and now it’s up to the voters to decide who they want to be in charge of the Province for the next four years.
Political Scientist at UNB Saint John Don Desserud tells CHSJ News, the biggest factor is have voters been engaged over the past month.
Desserud says when he looks back at the campaign, he never saw a real debate on the serious issues and the two front runners, Shawn Graham and David Alward were overly cautious with what they said and did knowing how volatile the voting population is.
Desserud is speculating voter turnout today will be lower than it was four years ago but he expects some tight races in the Saint John area.
