For sure, but by voting in your local representative, you're also voting in the UDP/NDP leadershipThis quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

Alberta Party - that's what I plan on doing. They are the happy middle on a lot of things. They seem to be mostly good for O&G, Child Care and Healthcare, while not having a leader who spent his University years actively campaigning against the right for gay people to visit their dying parents.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member.

UCP is going to win regardless though it doesn't matter much, but I will feel slightly better about myself not voting for someone with beliefs deeply rooted in religion and bigotry. From what I read anyway, none of the parties are going to be able to do much to move the O&G needle, so whatever. Kenney seemed like he might, but he also might have the effect of other people hating him so much that they oppose him on principle alone.
I wish we could just have a vote for ranked choice voting...

You know it would be funny if NDP attack ads worked and early voting are all NDP supporters.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Going A/P, given the options of platforms and what's realistic.
NDP spending has been too high. I'm not against spending like ol' Ralphy would have been, but NDP have reached a new tier of YOLO. And reading about Vivian Krause's report being received but nothing happening (or even talked about) from leaders is absolutely infuriating. I completely understand that shit gets buried in government protocol, but a firm statement isn't hard.
UCP economically may be a better option of our choices (even still it's a huge maybe), but I just cannot vote for Jason with a sane conscience. Their platform of "we're not NDP" is frankly pathetic, a lot of scandal already doesn't inspire confidence either.

If anyone is interested in knowing relative likelihood of any individual ridings race being decided tonight, there is a link to know exactly how many vote anywhere ballots have been turned in for each riding. Higher number lower probability of a result being definitive.

That pic must be 10 years old. She looks nothing like that when I saw her at Arbour Lake.

So the AP is catfishing is what you're telling me
I went with UCP last week during advance polls.
It was tough considering their social stance and the fact that I absolutely despise Kenney, but at the end of the day economy is #1 for me and i think they are the best-positioned to bring back growth. Even if it's just a perception, it seems to be have already started driving the economy forward.

I disagree. If more people voted based on the platform and what they believed, vs. "strategically", I believe we'd have a more balanced and understandable political landscape.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
The AP may not have much now, but that may change over time as they earn more support and votes. What better way to demonstrate my support than with my vote?

I thoroughly agree. Polls are what's keeping so many lazy asses home thinking their vote doesn't matter. The only vote that doesn't matter is the one not cast.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
I would agree if it weren't for the current system. Get rid of FPTP, and our democracy would work a bit better.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
I would be mostly concerned about fringe parties holding the balance of power and forcing demands to make governments run, or forcing more and more elections.
Even rudimentary statistical analysis says otherwise. I rarely vote.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Donate and/or volunteer for them, that is far far far more valuable than your meaningless vote. If you really want them to have a chance of being something one day that’s what will actually work.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Voting for the Alberta Party, when they have no chance of winning, is essentially deferring your vote to whatever the majority of residents in your area want. Which is far less likely to do your personal interests credit than being a strategic voter (ie plugging your nose and picking for the best of the rest) in THIS election.
You are a pretty reasonable guy who is eloquent and good at expressing your position. I think door knocking for AP would be a great way to ACTUALLY support them.
That’s the way I see it anyways.
Case in point, I love the PPC, but there is next to no likelihood of me voting for them. I would volunteer for them and donate to their campaign though.
