In the lead up to and aftermath of the election many of these posts set record numbers in terms of hits, and the top two posts shattered hit totals for any previous posts in The Left Chapter's history save for September's record post on the racist Ontario niqab meme.
Without any further ado, the top five posts in terms of hits in October were:
1) Delusion continues to rule the day in Mulcair NDP
By Fraser Needham
In the 2015 Canadian federal election campaign that wrapped up earlier this week, the Justin Trudeau led Liberals won a smashing 184-seat majority government.
