Gondek isn't exactly a crazy left person where she would be unelecteable for right wingers (she has some pretty strong developer connections as pointed out but nothing earth shattering)...while Farkas seems to be a contrarian for the sake of being a contrarian and a very suspect voting record on many issues.
Even accounting for partisanship, Gondek seems like the better choice. For municipal issues, partisanship plays a much lesser role (as can be seen with Nenshi where people think he can run for the UCP provincially or the Liberals federally, or may be in bed with the NDP where people are trying to pigeonhole him to a party and failing). That basically makes him a centrist, and Gondek as well.
