The sad part is that the Canadian oil patch overwhelmingly voted for him. Big mistake.
That is the Tory (Conservative) vote. The two white areas are Edmonton and Calgary, we'll get to them in a bit. You will notice, however, that the tories got over65% of the vote throughout the entire rural areas of the province IE where the oil actually IS.
Calgary elected 2 libs, but 8 tories.
Edmonton elected 2 libs, a dipper and 8 tories as well.
Somehow I don't see a large lib support in AB. Perhaps you're seeing something that I don't, because I look at facts rather than fantasy?
