   Globe and Mail: Here's what you need to know before the polls close in Alberta...

   Mostly information about how to vote and where to brush up on campaign promises. Oh, and also, polling suggests the UCP is likely to win. That's something you need to know before voting and there is definitely no ideology at play here, none at all.

      I'll grant that the ideology may be unconscious, but it's there.

         @ink_slinger Yes, the G&M has an ideology. But do you think they wouldn't have mentioned the prediction if the polls showed the NDP sweeping back to power?

         Have a look at the article they'll publish next week about the PEI election.

            @mpjgregoire It's the context of the article. It's not just a story about the polling (which is normal and happens all the time, regardless of who is in the lead). But how is that a "what you need to know before you go vote," regardless of which party we're talking about.
