Indeed.  At the moment it's bad enough here with local state politics
playing out.  Where I live, we're due for another state election, and of
course, we're in the media hotseat as the contender for Queensland
Premier is gunning for the seat of Ashgrove.

I'd rather not see Gentoo's elections become the farcical fanfare of
local, state or federal government elections. :-)
