Last time when the Liberals took Elbow Calgary suddenly got representation in the cabinet and more resources began to be focused here. The campaign for the Tories to re-take this riding wasn't exactly a landslide and they pushed very hard to make that happen.
My point is that the WRA winning the seat is a pure protest vote. Its no more impactful than the greens winning the seat, or an independent.

But people are talking about making their vote as a protest vote because they are unhappy with Stelmach.
In terms of showing the PC's that you are unhappy with them and trying to get them to change their platform, a vote for the Liberals isn't going to make the PC's change what they do anymore than a vote for the WRA is.
Perhaps a vote for the Liberals might get the riding more concessions, but in terms of sending Ed a message both parties are so irrelevant that voting for either isn't going to make a difference either way.
