Never big into politics, but this election might actually grab my attention.

The interesting thing about Social Media conversation is that they do a good job of showing how the momentum is going to swing. For the past three weeks we've tracking Tweets and the Leadership stats, it's been pretty clear that the WR was on the rise. Sure what's being said on the abvotes/ableg channel is just echos and white noise, but if anything it showed how motivated the WR has been. The PCs have finally picked up steam again after sitting on cruise control for the past month. (Similar to what's happening on the campaing)
It's also interesting to note that the NDP is getting far more mobilized than the Alberta Liberals. Which is starting to show in the polls for third place.
