I especially like how last time she said she was running for the NDP because the Green party are too fiscally conservative.<BR/><BR/>I think that she may increase her vote this time, no matter what the liberals do, because many people want Jaffer out. The problem has always been trying to figure out whether to vote liberal or NDP to do so - now everyone knows they must vote NDP, and so they probably will.<BR/><BR/>(I still wish they would get rid of Layton though...)<BR/><BR/>GayleAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10290429.post-1166823661936624112006-12-22T14:41:00.000-07:002006-12-22T14:41:00.000-07:00trent said: I agree that it should be interestin...trent said: <I> I agree that it should be interesting to see how Environentally strong NDP candidates like Duncan fare in the face of a potential Green surge. </I><BR/><BR/>In the last election, Edmonton Strathcona was the only riding in Alberta where the Green vote went down. So I'd say she did pretty well in the last green surge.<BR/><BR/>Duncan is a full blooded environmentalist. Her whole career has been dedicated to green issues. She is the green candidate in Strathcona, and that's why the GP vote dropped in the one riding you'd think they would clean up in. <BR/><BR/>Duncan has the green cred, and she obviously thinks Layton does too. She'll get my vote in the next election, and I suspect a lot of other votes too.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10290429.post-1166822172893978402006-12-22T14:16:00.000-07:002006-12-22T14:16:00.000-07:00I will vote for Duncan.

With increased visability going into the election this time she might just be able to pull it off, but it's going to take a lot of work. I hope she has a really good campaign team. Is the NDP in Strathcona strong enough to pull that together? I guess we'll see.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10290429.post-1166818628142619752006-12-22T13:17:00.000-07:002006-12-22T13:17:00.000-07:00I voted for Linda Duncan last time around, but it ...I voted for Linda Duncan last time around, but it will be hard to do so again. Not because she is not a good candidate - she is - but because I am hugely disappointed in the NDP and Jack Layton.<BR/><BR/>That said, she is probably the best chance we have for unseating Jaffer, and that cannot happen soon enough for me. This might be another one of those elections when I hold my nose and vote for the ABC party.<BR/><BR/>GayleAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10290429.post-1166815895072060922006-12-22T12:31:00.000-07:002006-12-22T12:31:00.000-07:00I agree that it should be interesting to see how E...I agree that it should be interesting to see how Environentally strong NDP candidates like Duncan fare in the face of a potential Green surge. <BR/><BR/>I supported Linda Duncan in 2006 and will be voting for her again!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10290429.post-1166814637066000692006-12-22T12:10:00.000-07:002006-12-22T12:10:00.000-07:00*cough* changed.
