As the provincial election gets underway, the votes of the undecided will be critically important – and the contrast between UCP and NDP partisans could hardly be more stark
The Canadian Press
Overall, our Alberta numbers are consistent with the trends other pollsters are showing: UCP at about six in 10 and the NDP with support from about one in three Albertans . However, the undecided have been factored out of these calculations. Including the undecided changes the picture: UCP 44 per cent, NDP 24 per cent and undecided 25 per cent.
NDP supporters are on the opposite end of the spectrum on many of the values that define UCP supporters. NDP partisans question traditional authority, are open to flexible definitions of family, and support active government. They believe in environmental protection, strive to live an ecological lifestyle, and try to be ethical consumers. They are active in their communities, civically engaged, open to multiculturalism and enjoy learning from others and about different cultures.
