Right now the real drama is: will Dan Meades break 800 votes?

Sigh. All too familiar a feeling for an old communist from Alberta like me.

Well, can't win them all. All in all, a shockingly good showing for a Liberal in Calgary.

Interesting that the CHP is running in two by elections but not Calgary Centre...maybe they were afraid of right wing vote splitting?

Looks like the Liberals and Green Party did a big favor for the Conservatives by splitting up the protest vote. Without the Green Party it's a Liberal victory.

Well that sucks. I have no issue with people voting for whom they like, but saying that people should vote "strategically" for Turner was just ######ed and likely ensured the result. They must be really proud of themselves.

He thinks he's making up a 600+ vote margin from the advance polls?
Unlikely. If anything, the margin will widen.
