Overheard on social media, Quebec election edition

The quotes below are from Facebook friends who may or may not want the recognition:

On the election results:
“Fingers crossed there’s a Wild Rose [sic] candidate for me to vote for next QC election. I need more terrible options, and fast!”

On minority governments:
“You want any of these clowns to have the keys to the camper?”

“On the bright side, Pauline won’t be able to tie her shoelaces without running it by everyone else. Have fun!”

And from local media wits on Twitter:

On the Liberal defeat:
“Jean Charest’s speech was passionate and states-manly [sic]. Where was this passion during the campaign? And did he forget to resign?” — Dan Delmar  

On news coverage of the election:
“Did CTV hire the #HoneyBadger guy for translation? I keep expecting him to go ‘Charest don’t care. Charest don’t give a shit.’” — Erik Hamon

On the Metropolis shooting:
“Just a possible assassination attempt. Nothing to see here, folks.” — Steve Faguy

On post-election relief:
“Well then… where’s the post #qc2012 party?” — Christopher Curtis

Here are some pictures by Owain Harris on his tour around the city’s polling stations:
