Conservatives lead in St Albert-Edmonton
Brent Rathgeber in second
TORONTO September 25th, 2015 - In a random
sampling of public opinion taken by the Forum Poll™ among 490 voters in the
newly distributed federal riding of St Albert-Edmonton, close to 4-in-10 will
vote for Michael Cooper, the Conservative candidate (38%), while the incumbent,
independent Brent Rathgeber, will take 3-in-10 (29%). The NDP candidate,
Darlene Malayko, will take one fifth of the vote (19%), and the Liberal,
Beatrice Ghettuba, one tenth (11%). Few will vote Green (4%).
“Brent Rathgeber is one of the most admired members of the
House by political insiders, because of his relentlessly independent stance on
controversial issues. His riding’s history as a Conservative stronghold appears
to have overcome this legacy, though,"
said
