It’s election time in Alberta, and today is election day.
I try to keep politics off the blog, but I will say that my attention has been distracted from my usual writing and blogging due to all the articles and coverage I’ve been keeping track of for the election.
Quite possibly today will be the first time in a long time that the Progressive Conservatives don’t win the election with a landslide majority. Whether or not the Wild Rose party becomes the Official Opposition, or the minority government, remains to be seen. How the Liberals do, perhaps well enough to be the decisive power of a minority government, or otherwise, and how the other parties do (NDP, Alberta Party, etc.) is hard to say.
So if you’ve wondered why I’ve been a bit light on the posts… that’s why. Regular blogging shall resume soon, if I’m not verklempt over the election results.
8:15 and results will be coming soon….can’t wait.
I wonder how long I’ll manage to stay awake tonight, and how long it’ll take for enough votes to be counted to figure out the result and call the winner.
I do hope it’s a minority gov’t.
me too
