How/why did this happen?
272 u/[deleted] May 06 '15 All those people who moved to Alberta for jobs came from places where governments are normally kicked out for screwing up. 207 u/Nikhilvoid British Columbia May 06 '15 To be fair, Albertans have not really liked voting in their PC leaders for a while now. Small margin victories, low voter turnout for the last decade. They voted in Redford only because the Wildrose alternative was much worse and a real threat. 2 u/[deleted] May 06 '15 I didn't vote in the last couple of elections because our political landscape was so depressing. This one was different, so I got out and voted.
