With the race for the city's top job in a dead heat it's likely some Calgarians could be voting strategically come Monday.

Mount Royal Political Scientist Lori Williams tells 660News when people head to the polls, some could change their preferred vote to stop a candidate they don't like from getting the mayor's chair.

Williams adds McIver and Higgins are both seen as fiscal conservatives, so a split could happen between those two candidates -- benefiting Nenshi.

But Higgins and Nenshi are seen as having fresh perspectives and that could be another area where a split may occur -- giving McIver the advantage.

But who would Calgarians least like to see nabbing the city's top job?

. . .

"I don't know, he just seems a little too stuffy... a little too militant to me. And he probably isn't looking out for my interests," said Keith.

However, a handful of others tell 660News they wouldn't want Barb Higgins to win.

"She just seems to have run a very a very poorly managed campaign, very unorganized," said Greg.

However, not one person 660News spoke with said they thought Naheed Nenshi would be the worst choice for mayor.
