From up here in Edmonton I will tell you this: My belief is that the Liberals will be decimated next election and it will be the NDP who will make large gains.
It would not surprise me to see the NDP win close to half the Edmonton seats (or more), due to the personal popularity of a couple of their MLAs, but also due to:
a) the return of the left wing vote to left wing parties (and not Redford). Libs are not a practical option here.; and
b) the splitting of the right wing vote between the PCs and WR.
I think the overwhelming majority of left wing votes in Edmonton swing to the NDP away from the Libs and Alberta Party if the election were called today.
