Also, my limited knowledge of the Calgary mayoral race has led me to believe that the incumbent usually wins in a landslide. In fact, the last time the incumbent lost was in 1980 when Ralph Klien came into power. This has led me to think that quality candidates do not oppose the mayor but instead wait until the mayor steps down for a close race to replace him.
Assuming that I am correct, is there any indication that this election will be different or is Nenshi looking at 80-90% support?
