Case in point. A letter to the editor in the Edmonton Sun. The last sentence and the editors 'clever' (3 word) response sums it up.
I have been an eligible voter here in Alberta for about 50 years, and have always been a die-hard Conservative supporter. Danielle Smith was not my first choice as our UCP premier, but I was OK with her as my second choice. She has disappointed me with the lack of thought that she has put into many of her comments, and then having to stumble and stagger her way out of the mess. Her flapping lips have put her into so much trouble. I will definitely be voting UCP though, and could never for NDP.

This is not a normal redneck issue going on here. I can tolerate that with humor.
What I can't tolerate is the more serious dangerous ugly side of some Albertans coming out of the shadows given a steady flow of oxygen and packaged as 'another viewpoint, another side'. 

FYI: The Manitoba Registered Nurses' Association is giving out lawn signs that read "Vote Like Your Life Depends On it".

Probably best to take opinion-based polling with a massive grain of salt these days. Pollsters/polling firms aren't necessarily ensuring those they poll are adequately informed.

Lets hope they're due for a swing and a miss.

but it's also Don Braid quoting a pollstar who has been remarkably accurate in recent elections. This is bad news any way you slice it. God, I hate this province and the rednecks within....

It's Don Braid.

Back in the day when sanity prevailed making false allegations was met with immediate consequences. 
Not so much nowadays. It's a free for all that results in legitimate claims getting mixed in and blurred with ones like the above.
Embarrassing. 
  

Now you get a national platform on the rightwing entertainment station that masquerades as a news station. 

Great questions from Nenshi to DS that no one is asking her (I may have not got it exactly the way Nenshi put it):
Q: Did you believe what you said in those videos then and do you believe them now? A: No. Q: Then why did you lie to us? A: Because I changed my mind. Q: Then what made you change your mind?

Putting all partisan politics aside....... happy 153rd to the place I love the best! 

This is worth the 10 minute listen.  Jeromy Farkas and I don't agree on anything other than the UCP under Smith is a disaster.  Nenshi is Nenshi - so awesome!
