I applaud someone who is voting for their candidate based on the individual. I may not agree with the candidate being supported, but someone who can look at the person over party - especially in Alberta - gets my kudos. That's not often the case. Blind party voting does frustrate me way more since it creates far more partisan behaviors en masse and overlooks a lot of issues.
That said, please press your supported candidate on the deficiencies of the party and ask for a game plan on how your candidate plans to rectify those deficiencies. And hold them to account.
