Listen, when I was a boy I really wanted fluoridation in our water, but my dad wouldn’t get it for me. So I held my breath until I passed out and banged my head on the coffee table. The doctors thought I might have brain damage.

Chandler knocked on our door recently and handed me a pamphlet with a list of people endorsing him. That list includes gems such as...Brett Wilson and Danielle Smith.

I wouldn't have opened the door. That guy creeps me out. You know that uncomfortable feeling you have when you see interviews of cult leaders? (or maybe that's just me)... I get that same feeling anytime I've ever seen him talk.

I really don't know how much I trust "Common Sense" Calgary polls, but man, I would really rather not see Terry Wong slide up the middle between all the other more progressive candidates in Ward 7.
His transit policy is "Yeah, transit is great and all but Calgary is a winter city and cars are often the most convenient" FFS.

I wouldn’t put a lot of stock in the Common Sense polls. They are clearly biased, and I’m sure it skews their numbers.

CSC is maybe half a step above Brad Field Pie Chart in terms of credibility. still, don't take anything for granted, make sure that the result you want is beyond question by getting those ballots in.

I have had the misfortune of meeting him a couple of times. I will be lining up early to strategically cast my vote for against him. Go Evan Spencer!

I don't understand how someone could see how incompetent the guy is, then say "ya, more of that, please."

I kind of disagree. When the party/person comes to my door that I have zero intention of voting for, I want to eat as much of their time as is practical for me. The longer they waste time talking to me, the less time they have at other doors where people might vote for them!
(My wife put a "no politics/soliciting/religion/sales sign near the door now, so this isn't really a game I can play any longer)

Why is there no data on Ward 5?
Hoping that Aryan Sadat does not win. I have known him since high school days and yeah, not a good person.
I voted in advance polls for Gondek (Mayor) and Sandhu (Councillor)

I'm leaning toward Kourtney, but I'd be happy with either of those two.

I wonder if they specifically made those colour choices...
EDIT: yes, it appears that all "UNION ENDORSED" candidates get orange while Conservative PAC endorsed candidates get blue

I'm really curious how much we can really trust any municipal polls. How much money is being put into these things? I'm not sure how sophisticated they are.

They 100% certainly did, and they're not even subtle about it.. The colours aren't in the same order in each graph. They always put the Manning conservative slate candidate in blue.

Common Sense Calgary is a farce.
Want to know why?
Because their polling includes introducing their Ward front-runners as dubiously-coined "union-PAC-endorsed candidate", while having no such descriptors for non-progressive candidates. They even have this gem:
"In Ward 10, former Councillor Chabot looks set for a return, polling 44%, well ahead of the former staffer to Liberal minister, Marie-Claude Bibeau, and union-PAC-endorsed Abed Harb, on 13%."
No objectively-based non-partisan group would ever describe candidates like this - clearly a swipe at progressive candidates.
And their social media feeds are clearly on a partisan tilt.
While some of these Ward results may not be entirely far off, do not give credence to this ragtag band of conservative sycophants.
