Alberta election

Any Alberta transplants keeping an eye on the election today? I have a feeling I'm going to do a lot of cringing when I read the news tonight. Sigh.

I guess most of the people who said they were going to vote WR couldn't find their way to the polling station.

The crazies held at bay in Alberta, the commies are resurgent, just, in France, and best of all, they're surtaxing the rich in Ontario!

Woo Hoo indeed!

Klein won fewer seats in his first election, I'd say that's a strong mandate to fulfill some campaign promises. My town gets a new hospital! Polling is slanted and horrible. Hopefully the Wildrose fizzle and die now...

Also, Raj Sherman (liberal party leader, crossed the floor once ejected from PC caucus) doesn't look like he's going to get voted in. Good.

Even if we did, it would be better than an incompetent fool who can't pass a tax law that's phenomenal for the population without trying to completely fool the population in an election campaign by not mentioning it at all. Only the worst politicians can fail at saving their constituents money... YAY BC!

HEY! National Post. Fuck you and your companies sponsored onslaught of media positive to the WRA. Luckily Albertans voted with their brains, not your opinions. I'm reading the globe from hear on out - at least they didn't endorse the WRA. You ass-clowns have turned from a respected journalistic institute to the written equivalent of fox news with a little bit of perfume. I don't expect it will be all that much longer, maybe 5 or 6 years, when your target audience no longer understands multi-syllabic words. Dimwitted fools.

Are the Alberta Conservatives different than the Federal Conservatives in that respect?
