Actually surprising that the NDP's polling at 38%, that's really not all the big of a dip of their 40% they got last time.
They were saying on Alberta Prime Time last week that the 40% the NDP got in 2015 was the lowest number for a governing party in Alberta history.

It was also mentioned that the NDP are polling about the same as they did in 2015. Unfortunately they won't have the advantage of vote splitting between the PCP and WRP.
