 @665a2fe5 1/3 of Albertans are completely sane, intelligent people. The other 2/3 are literally the stupidest people in Canada, and possibly the world. This is why the UCP are in power. #abpoli

Not according our last elections. It was the other way around. 1/3 of Albertans voted UCP but got 2/3 of the seats because they live in rural Alberta and own a lot of land, and get over-represented. The same privilege and over-representation that seeps into everything else they push, as they claim to be victims any time that a marginalized community gets any kind of voice over theirs. Their demographic is summed up as "the smallest and the loudest". #abpoli #cdnpoli

TL;DR: 2/3 of Albertans are sane and intelligent, but the 1/3 who are not control the votes, and hold all the power and influence over our Province.
