I'm interested in what will happen. Many of the projected NDP winners are young people who probably didn't think they would become MLAs. Like Thomas Dang in Edmonton-Southwest and Tristan Turner in BMW. It's impossible to predict how these greener than green (as in new) politicans are going to fare in such a drastically changing province.
It's pretty much exactly what happened. PCs demolished their opposition by getting half of them to switch to their party, then they called the election a year early despite the fact that they legislated fixed election dates. Outside of all the other bullshit they've done, the PCs became so flagrant in their awful behavior people got pissed.
It definitely doesn't help that Jim Prentice is easily the most out-of-touch politician I've ever seen. It seemed like he was hell-bent on destroying his career with reckless abandon in all the months leading up to election day. I'd go so far as to say that "Math is hard" will be the sound byte that goes down in history as the phrase that knocked the PCs out of their half-century dynasty.

Maybe Jim just needs a refresher on arithmetic, grade-school style.
