A former member of a United Conservative constituency association in Southern Alberta delivered a blistering rebuttal Wednesday to party leader Jason Kenney’s characterization of a recent slew of resignations.
Mark Hudson was one of six board members who departed the UCP Livingstone-MacLeod constituency association earlier this month. In a statement to media Wednesday morning, Hudson said he left because of personal attacks and bullying by UCP board members over his co-operation with an investigation into Jeff Callaway’s short-lived 2017 leadership campaign.

“While the vast majority of the (constituency association) board has been supportive of me, I cannot continue given the increasing gravity of the election commissioner’s investigation, for I feel the bullying would simply worsen,” Hudson wrote. “I cannot simply hide away in a corner and shut up.”
Hudson also refuted suggestions by Kenney and UCP MLA Jason Nixon that the recent exodus of UCP Livingstone-Macleod board members was driven by bitterness over the results of a recent nomination race.

It's hilarious that the NDP keeps touting these nomination battles as some sort of negative. Of course people are going to be upset if their horse didn't win the race.
The bottom line is that the NDP can't even find people to run for them, let alone have a true contest for any nomination! Most of their union sycophants have already been posted to plum government appointments so see no point in running and losing in an election.
