Notley speed wobbled off the hop, but as the debate went on, she had the upper hand. Great jabs, reasonable on policy and affably intelligent. She didn't harp but got off great shots. Smith came off as slippery and couldn't rebut when Notley called her out on misinformation. She became irritated and smug as the debate went on. Her priorities felt dated and repetitive. Obviously the Yoho's of the world will eat it up but this debate was for the undecided and it was a solid win for Notley.
