@jace Johnson's comments were so very disturbing. But as Pride Month begins, I'm holding on to this hopeful story from Innisfail, just up to the road. https://albertaviews.ca/innisfail-pride/ :CApride:​ #abvote #abvotes

Kinda amazing how many consequential outcomes in Alberta politics over the past year have been decided by votes of just over 50%

May 2022: Jason Kenney gets 51.4% support in leadership review. He resigns.

October 2022: Danielle Smith wins UCP leadership on sixth round of voting with 53.8% of the ballots.

May 2023: UCP wins election with 52.6% of the popular vote.

last night could have gone better, but the hyperbole is a bit much. getting 38 seats and 44% of the vote in a province that's had various flavours of conservative governments for almost its entire history is something to be hopeful for. #AbElection2023 #abvote

@Chigaze I take requests. 😉

Here it is again, sorted by smallest margin as a percentage of total seats.

Unsolicited foolish bold political prediction:

Within a year, both the UCP and the Alberta NDP will have new party leaders.

Alberta elections, historically, tend to be blowouts. Not many close contests.

The seat margin in this year's vote is the smallest there's ever been. (11 seats separate government & official opposition, if you include Jennifer Johnson with the UCP; 10 seats if you don't.)

Why…..are these results coming in soooo slowly??? #abvotes #abvote #Alberta

Everyone needs to chill out about these early election results lol

There are 10,000 ballots cast so far, out of about 2 million to likely come, and they are mostly from advance, mobile & special ballots.

In a bunch of riding, there has been a *single vote* counted.

To call it early would be a major understatement.

Seeing some trolling defacement of election signs. How soon until this is declared something it’s not?
