Probably not. They are just like the dippers with a different name. Lefty's.

They’ll pick up a few conservatives that hate the wild rose people and a few liberals that are confused but they won’t get any amount of votes to affect the outcome. Now that the conservative vote isn’t gonna be split we should be in good shape.

time will tell, I would not get too cocky on NDP being ousted. Notley makes a couple good calls to the right voters and watch what happens, look who is voting.

I hope that's true, but Mandell has some traction and some savvy , with the right sales pitch loud enough, they may pull,more votes than people are thinking.

Mandell has a good reputation in the Edmonton area. He may actually pull some NDP votes to the Alberta Party locally. Not sure he will do well in the rest of the province.

She’ll get some votes in and around Edmonton but that’s about it. Mandell is not well known anywhere but Edmonton so he’s a non issue province wide. The last election was a protest vote. People won’t make the same mistake again.

Kenny runs a look at what you did wrong and she runs this is what we are doing will tell the tale and that’s how I see things going. Candidates that run a slam the other brand never turn out well for them.

I believe they will pull some ucp votes, but i think they'll steal a lot more of the ndp votes that are actually liberals at heart. That is what the experts were saying on 630 CHED yesterday too.... I think Alberta has had enough of the center/left view, and hopefully go center/right this next election.... just over a year away now

I think you are right. More likely to split up the NDP vote than the UCP in the Edmonton area. Most others in the province don't know who he is, so it might play well in those areas and keep the vote with the UCP.
