We've launched a quiz for you bright-eyed keeners out there ... your chance to test your knowledge of politics and elections in Newfoundland and Labrador.

I titled it Campaigns, upsets, ballots and boo-boos.

Not all of the questions are about elections, of course; the image above relates to one of them (and indeed gives something of a hint).

Feel free to spread this address to friends, family, campaign co-workers, your prof, your neighbour, and anyone else you like:

Hope you enjoy it.
