It's between Dave France, of the Alberta Alliance and Jack Hayden of the PC Party. <BR/><BR/>The Liberals did not even run a candidate in this constituency last election.<BR/><BR/>By-elections are characterized by their low turnout, and untraditional results favouring third parties. Deborah Grey and Gordon Kelser of the Western Canadian Concept Party were both elected in byelections in Alberta because of these factors. <BR/><BR/>Look for Dave France to chalk up a big victory and the size of the Alliance Caucus to double after the by-elections. <BR/><BR/>As well the Liberals have an excellent opportunity to pick up Calgary Elbow. With Ralph gone this one is up clearly for grabs.<BR/><BR/>If Drumheller Stettler goes Alliance and Calgary Elbow goes Liberal, Stelmach sure will have some egg on his face.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10290429.post-88046550639174676802007-04-23T02:20:00.000-06:002007-04-23T02:20:00.000-06:00Daveberta:Jsck Hayden will crush his Liberal oppon...Daveberta:<BR/><BR/>Jsck Hayden will crush his Liberal opponent. Guaranteed. Check out today's Calgary Herald.<BR/><BR/>The question is how long it will take the Liberals to whine that there is not enough money in the budget for education, environment and child care. Answer, last Friday. You can't have it both ways. Eventually, you get your fingers burned.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
