Actually, it will still be quite a while before the cantonal elections take place in Geneva – more than eleven months, in fact. So you could sit back and leisurely let time pass by. But in a canton whose politics has been shaken up more than almost anywhere else in Switzerland over the past five years, even the smallest of stirrings give reason to talk.
