I'm not going to watch it, but I figured those that didn't have the feed would be interested.

It's apparent no one has heard of this Horner guy in Calgary.

Why do the PC's have 3 people in the run-off when this time and last time it was clear that the race is basically between two people?

It really isn't that much of a surprise that it's Mar 1 and Horner 2 - really that is Calgary 1st, and Edmonton/Rural 2nd. Redford coming in 3rd boasts well for the party because I think she is bringing the "red tories" out to vote. You'd have to give her that given the lack of caucus support she has.

Probably didn't hurt having Carter (and Nenshi lists) on her team.

Fairly, IF you purchased a PC Party membership. That was made very clear when I want to a voting station to make this same point and had someone much like you explain a very similar thing. So once again, fair means if you lay out money to support a Party, you can have a say. No money, no admittance to exercise a democratic right. Are you honestly going to state that requesting money to vote falls under what Democracy means? That this system is allowing all citizens the right to have an equal say in the election?

Dude, this is not a general election where anyone has the right to vote. You need to be a member of the party, that is their rules. They can also cancel your membership if they so choose. I suppose you are going to tell me that is undemocratic to?

Nevermind about this year being clearly between two people didn't realize Redford was going to get such a surge.

Anyways looking like a pretty weak choice for leader of the PC no matter who wins.
