Candidates fear low voter turnout for UBC | Straight.com
Two candidates for regional office have slammed Metro Vancouver for failing to inform UBC students and other residents of the vast Electoral Area A that there’s an election going on. Green party activist Ben West and education advocate Charles Menzies both told the Straight that extremely low voter turnout in former elections is related to shoddy communications.
“We have no real, effective government,” Menzies, who is a UBC associate professor of anthropology, said.
