Default Who DID you vote for? [2015 Alberta Provincial Election]

Hey guys and gals!

Looking at this as sort of a province-wide exit poll of sorts. Please only answer the poll if you have voted already.

Feel free to discuss below.

Make sure you encourage everyone you know to get out there and vote!

Thanks!

Something for people working crappy long shifts to keep in mind: Your employer is legally obligated to ensure you have the opportunity to vote. If you are working hours would prevent you from having a block of three consecutive hours to go cast a ballot, they have to make time.

NDP in rural Alberta. Amazingly, 308 is projecting the NDP to win the riding and defeat finance minister Robin Campbell.

I say amazingly because this is pretty heavy redneck hate all liberals type of place. I am still somewhat shocked at what the lookspolls have been saying.

Other. Got called out of town, was a last minute thing. Missed advance polls, no time to get a special ballot package.

Do we need another thread with a poll that is only technically different from the other?

There's actually a big difference. This one will hopefully capture what people actually DID on election day.

There can be a huge difference between that and what people intended on doing before the election. I thought it might be useful.

Make that three in the category. Strategic vote; just don't want the NDP taking it (and I don't think there's much risk).

Is there somewhere online to watch ongoing coverage later?
