Personally, I think it would send a bigger message than electing the Liberals would.

Lose the seat to Roberts, and the PCs might consider it just a case of centrist voters switching over, perhaps as a one time thing as noted in a previous by-election in the last legislature.

Lose a seat to the WRA, and it would be a sign that the PCs are bleeding support in multiple directions. Because if the more conservative voters are moving away, they can also be certain the moderates will be moving as well.
