This is absurd.

It's a by-election, which means that it doesn't have the same Get-Out-The-Vote organisation as a general election.
There were 17k votes cast in the 2015 general election, and only 10k votes cast in the 2017 by election that got Kenney elected. That says it all.
And you just know that Kenney overspent on getting his win, just like he did for the UCP leadership. He's buying his way into office. That might work in by elections no one cares about and party leadership votes (while
violating rules) but it won't work in the 2019 general.
The lyin' Conservative media will paint this as a sweeping Kenney endorsement, but the reality is anything but.
