    It’s improving but NDP is still polling 5 points behind in Calgary, which is concerning

      Where are you getting that number? The 5% lead shown here is for the whole province, including rural areas. Although I guess Edmonton is in there too.

          Huh, thanks. That’s actually more recent than the polls in the graph, I wonder when they’re going to get it put up.

          Calgary is definitely going to be the battleground. Having a prominent former Calgary mayor as candidate should help at least a bit. I can’t say it’s impossible we’ll elect her again, but I can say all her ideas are unpopular, and that her messaging isn’t strong.

                Read about his methodology - this is not a graph of every poll, it’s a projection on the aggregate.

                  Oh you’re right! My bad, sorry.

                  Huh, so I wonder why the graph lags behind the input data, then. The methodology page explains how they weight it, mostly.

            And none of that matters. Because here in Alberta we vote by color and not policies. And yes I used American spelling on purpose.
