Friday’s revelation that neither Finance Minister Travis Toews nor Environment Minister Sonya Savage would be running for re-election in the expected May 29 provincial vote quickly gave way to speculation about who, or at least what kind of candidate, would replace them in the short spell remaining till the election writ is dropped, presumably on May 1.

“I will be working with the party and the constituency association to appoint a UCP candidate through Section 8 of our Candidate Selection Process so the candidate can get to work immediately keeping Calgary-North West a UCP stronghold on May 29,” the premier said in her statement about Ms. Savage’s departure.

Two more Take Back Alberta nutbars about to be appointed. Although maybe Smith will realize she needs someone sorta sane to have any chance of winning a Calgary riding. You would think there is plenty of time to nominate candidates properly, given past election campaigns are usually a month or so long. But maybe TBA doesn't control those 2 riding associations yet, so she doesn't want to risk it.
