Yes the UCP is not doing well at all, I have expressed serious reservations and concern to friends of mine in cabinet.

Most voters of any party usually just vote for an issue or two or go with a candidate that happened to stop by their home , business or gathering space.

Only the people who are really into politics, policy and the inner dealings really pay attention. The NDP lead by Singh was beyond a disaster and a sad sack of patheticness during his entire tenure. How many voters in Alberta and Canada would make the connection that the AB NDP and feds are really different? How many people knew that the BC Liberals are effectively a conservative party?

I am old school and prefer to go after politicians as opposed to going after voters
Anti-labour, anti-science, anti-trans, anti-poor, anti-public services...

They told us, straight out of the box, they were all these things and more. Ignorance isn't an excuse. This is entirely at the feet of UCP voters.
