Re Jasper and 'Confused this year''s perplexment: let me report that on E-day in 2011, the CPC total in the polls labelled 'Jasper' only surpassed the NDP total by *one vote* (35% apiece; Green 22%, Lib 6%). And if that's not enough. on federal byelection E-day in 2014, the Liberals swept said Jasper polls with 56%, leaving CPC below 20% and third behind the NDP! Only a pinprick, of course--though in the present post-Notley climate, I wouldn't be surprised if the NDP's poll-winning reach extends inward to resource towns like Edson, Hinton, etc. Just a few more pinprick holes; not enough to bust the Yellowhead Conservative balloon (at least for now)

There are always comments during elections on how Jasper is the only polls that won't/don't vote Tory. Just for the record...most of the polls in Jasper for the last number of elections have gone for the Conservatives (I live in Jasper...)

The tories will likely lose most of the Jasper polls which is less than 5% of the riding, but win big everywhere else. The interesting thing is everytime the Tories get over 70% in this riding, they win nationally while when they get under 70% they usually lose nationally.

There's an election going on? Does it matter? Conservative hold.

While a selected few (very few, if any) ridings in Edmonton or even Calgary may end up being competitive at some point of the campaign, rural Alberta will continue to be solid Conservative territory. Remember, the last time rural Alberta returned a non-Conservative/PC/Reform/Alliance MP was 1968 (two that election, and one of them started with the Social Credits).
