Alberta election poll tracker hat update - ooof.

Some of the poll results have leads of one percentage point and well within the margin of error. (Should I have included pale stripes for razor-thin leads? Hindsight).

The Bully Who Haunts Alberta’s Election | The Tyee

Inside the Kenney team’s torment of political β€˜enemies’ and where his troll brigade has landed. A Tyee investigation.

"Smith said things like the pension plan and replacing the RCMP can be revisited after the election."

Don't fall for it, Alberta.

She knows these unpopular ideas could lose her the election. She has not changed her mind about them, she is simply hoping she can make voters forget until she is elected. Then she will do them anyway.

@apukwa I'd be curious to know how someone who was rejected by the UCP previously even got on the nomination list. Obviously he has sympathizers in the party. Who put his name forward?

@shadowpages I see Keean Bexte, a "reporter" for the Western Standard Tweeted "Rachel Notley just had me dragged out of the press conference."
Best drag show we've seen in a while.
