Just to clarify, this comment must be regarding Stelmach. Given Kyle is 27 years old; I am pretty sure he has not held positions since he was 7 years old.
Prior to Stelmach winning the leadership, he was a virtual unknown to Albertans.
Similarly both Kyle and I are unknowns in Calgary North Hill. I would say the only ones that will benefit from name recognition would be Pat Murray, who has run here before and John Chan, who has run here federally.

Partisan politics have gotten too petty. Whatever happened to "my worthy opponent?" Or is that just for concession speeches?

I have never said he was unworthy. Just that we are coming in on equal ground so far as individual name recognition. He does have benefit of party name recognition.
