Were there any polls that asked people who their second preferences were? There's a guy on my twitter feed saying Wild Rose/PCs would have won if Alberta used IRV, and I want to see if that's true.

The NDP will still  get a higher share of the vote in Lloydminister Saskatchewan than they got in Lloydminster Alberta. (I believe it's the same city).

Njall's MLA lost (or is losing). Wonder if he'll finally join the dark side.

As for the map, it looks a lot like an election map of Saskatchewan now!

Oh wait, Calgary-Glenmore is Njall's riding. Jesus, he could have swayed the riding!

^This is why I've been silent all night.  I'll have some more coherent thoughts up later; gotta dash over to the campaign office right now with my scrutineer sheets...

Recount?

Recount policies in Alberta are:

There is only an automatic recount if it's tied. In other cases, the candidate or its agent has 8 days to ask a recount.

If there is still a tie after the recount, there is a by-election.
