I do wonder though. Why does the AP poll so low (less than 7%) yet over 30% here at CP? Are we really that different of a demographic? Perhaps the AP needs to figure out why they have won over a Calgary based hockey community but hardly anyone else  |
CP typically is not an accurate reflection of any city wide (or provincial wide for this matter) poll.
If you visit the politics thread, you would be certain the NDP would win this upcoming election by a landslide.
One could also argue that such a thread is a more educated group of Calgarians (in general) when it comes to politics so it is likely to be spread out and not follow the hype. The hype train is why I see the UCP winning by a landslide. Between people wanting the NDP out because they want someone to blame, people wanting them out because they are not happy with their current situation under the NDP, people wanting them out because they are not a fan of the policy.... these are all IMO slightly less educated votes who aren't looking at the full picture.
I am voting UCP because I believe they are the most likely to get $h9t done. I found NDP policy ridiculous, the AP puts on a good show but it looks to be smoke and mirrors and despite the compass telling me I am in favor of the Freedom Party.... I see it as pretty much non-existent and a waste of a vote at this time.
