Despite your protests, those results last night are a death knell for the AP. If Mori####a can't come in second in that election, it's pretty clear what's coming. A two=way fight between the NDP and UCP across the province. That leaves the AP squeezed out as would-be supporters vote strategically.

I agree, the party leader with a high local profile only comes in 3rd, the party isn't a factor. Much as I'd like to see them succeed, for the next election this is probably really a good thing so they aren't siphoning votes off the NDP.
