It’s seems crazy to me because these are people that are usually quite logical, but they’ve taken a stance so hard against woke lefties that there just isn’t a way that they could justify voting anything but conservative. It’s scary because I think there are an enormous amount of people in Alberta who are locked into a vote like that.

I think those people need a reality check.
Realistically Politics should be more like Professional Sports.
"What have you done for me lately?"
I loathed the NDP. I thought they made almost every mistake in the book and hadn't the slightest clue as to what they were doing until it was too late.
However the UCP clowns have made the NDP look like consummate professionals.
Your Vote always, always, should be for sale. Not necessarily for money but for whomever you think is going to do the best for you and the place you live right now.
At the moment it would take a mid to high-level miracle for me to vote UCP. I am talking about resurrecting a more-than-slightly-respected loved one or a seriously considerable amount of water into wine.
Personally I think the second they swapped leaders and went into full-on BS Libertarian mode then the Official Opposition should have been placed in Government until an election could be held or, an election should have been called immediately.
At least the Official Opposition is there by Albertan Elected mandate.
The UCP Leadership swap where a new leader was appointed by the merest of margins switching a moron for a psychopath?
No way. And Notley should stand up and flat out tell Albertans that this 'mid-term' Leadership Bait and Switch BS will never happen again. Legislate this nonsense out of existence. This is Bush-League Banana Republic BS.
I'd certainly vote for that.
