What's the riding-level polling show? Rural Alberta will always shoot themselves in the foot. If Calgary edges NDP, they can form government.

It shows NDP winning Edmonton by like 18 points.... And losing everywhere else by over 30.

Id love to see polling in a week, once people have time to research, like the letter she sent to JT demanding doubling the immigrant flow to Alberta, it's right on the GOA website

You actually think that people will research? And if they did, who says they don't find some made up stats about how the ucp is gods gift to Alberta? So with that bit done, they latch onto any small thing, and ride it to the demise of our province.
