FWIW.... Back in the day, Gary Mar had 41% and Alison Reford had 17% and yet she won on the third ballot.
I think they had a second vote that time, and most of the longshots dropped off so there were only 3 candidates then.

​Schulz next to go. Loewen can't put Smith over the top. If all of Schulz then Jean go to Toews he could win it. None of Schulz or Jeans votes will go to Smith.

Jean and Smith have been heavy adversaries so I'm think more of his vote goes to Toews than Smith.

I just have a hard time believing that 55% of the Jean and Loewen voters would have Toews ahead of Smith. I'd be very surprised and relieved to be wrong.

My guess would be to Smith but we’ll see.

In the 2017 CPC race Bernier started much higher, and gained at a higher rate round by round until round 6/13, and then Scheer took a higher proportion from there out

I think Jean voters might be interesting. Are they the camp that is still pissed off that smith betrayed them enough that she lost her seat in high River?

Gross. Toews will probably need 10 out of the 13.5% from Jean. Seems unlikely.

This is looking like a win for Smith.

Looks like it is basically done now with Smith as the victor. Just need to see what the percentage is. I'm not satisfied but there is some solice in knowing that it had to go deep down the ranked ballots for her to win.

Honestly, reading the comments from some of the journalists on Twitter makes me wonder if they understand what’s happening. A lot of “Danielle Smith hasn’t moved much” kind of thing, and it’s pretty obvious why. She’s populist and the progressives were dropping. No one who voted for Leela Aheer had Smith as a second choice.

Lot of people didn't put a second choice on their ballot, so I can't see how Smith doesn't win at this point even if she doesn't pick up any more votes.
