The Liberals got five seats here because they had either A) MLAs already elected, and thats the power of incumbency or (B) Good candidates.
I think that they actually hold two of these seats here in Calgary after this campaign. Its about the concentration of the votes as well, which is something that works to the detriment of the Wildrose more often than not. Could we see a right wing party advocating electoral reform?
