This is how I usually feel during the general elections, but for this one it is all about the riding. The benefit is that the result will have no impact on the politics of the HoC, but it will change the attitude of the CPC towards Calgary-Centre and Calgary in general. I don't see it as voting for the Liberals, but voting against the CPC since they need a kick in the ass.
