Is there any point in voting today?

Only a PC candidate came to my door. I have no idea who the other candidates are. I didn't receive any official info as to where to vote, riding info and who is running.

All Hail King Ralph ......

Here's where you can find out where to vote.

http://www.oceouat.gov.ab.ca/whereto...dex.cfm?PAGE=1

Your local newspaper yesterday would have had a breakdown of candidates and their primary positions.

Stop at the library to read it on your way to the polling station.

Simple.

So do you guys think Ralph Klein will win this hands down. Watching Calgary news there seems to be a real focus with the media to have Klein look like a leader that doesn't care about trying to win. it's like he's arrogant believing just being the PC leader will guarantee him another four years in office.( I get this feeling when watching Global Calgary) what do you guys think?

Well there is a feeling in the media because I think its true. Ralph Klein hasn't really done anything the last four years except periodically come out of his castle to throw money our way to make sure we still love him.

He will still win easily, but I think its definitely time for Ralphie to movie on.

I swear, Ralph Klein is Jean Chretien in costume. Have the two of them ever been seen together?

NDP's getting my vote.
Not that I assume they're full of any less bullsh*t than any other political party, it's just they've yet to dissapoint me....everyone gets their turn.

I get some of my co workers so riled up. They're all a bunch of hardline conservatives that enjoy shaking their heads at my youthful, liberal ideals.

I suppose it doesn't help that we all work for a former cabinet minister who is a close and personal friend of Mr. Klein's.

I'm sure he's a nice guy...I just don't want him running our province anymore.
