Whoa hold up. You know the rural vote is worth more than the city vote right? The cities are basically orange, but it doesn't matter that we have the largest populations. Every rural vote is worth 3 city votes.

Then push hard on her being a woman lording her power over more deserving men. Texas doesn't like women getting all uppity like that.

My friend just moved back to the US after living in Red Deer for several years. I've heard all about it. I thought she was crazy to give up permanent residency, but if that was her whole experience with Canada (plus her cheating scumbag ex husband), I kind of get it.

She's pro oil and gas, and hates trans people.

That's how.

Nah she's the Alex Jones of the north and ran a talk radio show. She's a propagandist, and was willing to break the PCs grasp on the province using the Wild Rose party -- and in doing so got an NDP candidate elected.

In US terms it's like if Alex Jones created his own ultra Republican party that broke the GOPs base so badly that Bernie Sanders got elected in the chaos.
