- At the University of Guelph, some students took Mercer's rant rather seriously. They used the concept of flash mobs […] and created vote mobs. […] In particular, the event has also been called a "surprise party," as evidenced by a You-Tube video in which a vote mob comes out of the woods and rolls out a banner that reads, "Surprise! We are voting!"
