Let me paint the following scenario: Assuming the UCP take a good licking in the polling for this, they could be in a situation where the NDP has Edmonton solid, The UCP has rural Alberta save for 2-3 ridings, and with Calgary as the battleground in the race to get to 44 seats for a majority. To win a majority the NDP would have to basically get all but 2-4 seats in Calgary. Greg Clark, and Rick Fraser from the Alberta party can be in the middle between a majority for either party and we could get a BC situation where they hold the balance of power in a minority government either UCP or NDP.

I agree that a UCP minority government may be the best solution. However, it doesn't look like that will be the scenario.

Maybe even add Derek Fildebrandt (he's polling well in Chestermere /Strathmore) and you could have a minority government that blunts the worst of both leading parties.

Isn't Fildebrandt the guy who got caught in a hit and run and also got caught cheating on his expenses?
edit- It wasn't hit and run it was poaching.
