I don't know if the NDP one was low, just "lower" than the UCP which was a record number of votes for Kenney.
Population grows over 8 years and advanced voting has become more mainstream so while the tweet compared, I'm not sure comparing to the NDP election tells us that much.
In general, there's a school of thought that higher voter turnout tends to mean a change election vs current government. Like I said in the previous post, I don't see a lot of excited and motivated UCPers running out to vote for Danielle Smith....more of a reluctant "should I hold my nose and vote or stay home?
Idk, make of it what you will I guess. Who knows until the votes are counted.
