The election was a prime example of people NOT voting with their pocketbooks.

Yes the ANDP would cost the corporations more, but that would have decreased the costs on the average voter. The UCP are costing the majority of Albertans more than the NDP would have. People aren't voting with their pocketbooks, they never do, they vote based on propaganda and the Albertan election proved this more than anything.
