Whack the PM

Here's a polling game you'll find entertaining even if you don't follow Canadian politics.

"Whack the PM" is a polling game and strategic voting tool. Voters are asked questions, based on actual statements made by each of the candidates, and they respond by whacking the candidate who has the most irritating answer on the head. Using this process, voters determine which leader they should vote against.

Visitors can even get local information by entering their postal code, and the game will suggest the best choices for them, so that the ballots they cast in their individual ridings can ultimately lead to the defeat of a national leader.

The project was made by The James Gang, a Toronto company also known for Whack the Mayor and Office-Politics.

They said the polling game was played over 33,000 times by 15,000 households.
