I know a bunch of NDP supporters (I'm in Edmonton) but I have no real sense of numbers. I do know a lot of people are very worried about the Wildrose party, hence why Redford won last time (a lot of 'anybody but Danielle Smith' votes). Also, Alberta demographics are really shifting...a lot more urban votes, immigrants etc. So I think things will get better, but it'll still take some time - a lot of time if my FB feed is any indication.
