Did you vote on any ballot for Stephan Harper as Prime Minister? The only way that you may have voted for Mr. Harper, is if he directly represented your riding. Messer's Harper and Dion were both duly elected within their respective riding's.

Over Christmas???

Do you perchance mean such as happened in 2004?
