Jody and George spell-check and bylaw-contravention-check the Mayor of Vancouver's press release that slams the Conservative Party of Canada; get into why this election has been so dirty; speculate on the power of endorsements (cough: Obama!); wonder why fireworks are once again coming up for debate; and remind everyone to vote!

SWIM ON:
- Last week's UnSpun talked Vancouver Island Greens, To Shred or Not To Shred, and another episode of As The BC Legislature Turns.
- George and Jody discuss the NDP's electoral ceiling, and the possibility of a minority government. Michael Taube asked if Jagmeet Singh really wouldn't consider a Conservative-led coalition.
- Spelling counts in press releases, especially with 43 communications staff (DRINK~!). In UnSpun 30, George and Jody wondered where they were when media asked about chunks falling off Granville Bridge.
