Facebook has been working with ABC for a while now working on their U.S. presidential election advertising/application. The idea is pretty good and hopefully it gets more people educated about the candidates and out voting.

Why are Canadians seeing this stuff?

Here's the deal: I'm Canadian. I really do not understand why Facebook is pushing this stuff to Non-Americans. Personally, I'm quite interested in U.S. politics, but I'm sure the majority of Canadians aren't.

So with Facebook developing all their awesome advertisement targeting software and utilizing the vast amount of information they have about me, why don't they just target it properly? page views? I guess ABC paid a pretty hefty price for so much attention.
