No some people did want Stelmach that is true, but I think many of the people who chose Stelmach as a first did so because they didn't want either Dinning or Morton in moreso than wanting Stelmach. He recieved 15% of the vote on teh first ballot so he wasn't exactly a overwhelming choice for Premier going into this second ballot.
He won congrats to him, too bad for the PC's, even with those first choice votes I woder how many were because of his views and how many because people, especially in Edmonton and non-conservative supporters who bought memberships solely to vote, did not want Dinning or Morton to win and Stelmach was the only other choice.
Basically how much was Stelmach votes because of him compared to if it were Oberg or Hancock or Jiri Hirdina running against Morton and Dinning.
