those in the province at the time of an elec-

Should abcant

be given a proxy vote

Ed Jones
North Vancouver

’ Yes, when I’m on _ holi-
days, or on business, I
want my vote. If you can
prove residency, yes, you
should be able to.

Ann Bodwelt

North Vancouver

f think everyone should
be in the province to
vote, except the armed
forces, who won’t be
anyways. It guarantees
you’re a resident and it
guarantees you cast your
own ballot.

Dwight Underwood
North Vancouver
Definitely not a vote by
proxy. You're then allow-
ing the chance for abuse.

Eleanor Durkee
Edmonton

1 think you should be
able to vote by proxy. A
lot of people are out of
the province through no
fault of their own, and
why should they be
deprived of that privi-
lege?

Joan Buckley

North Vancouver

If you’re interested
enough to vote, then you
should be able to.
