“It will take some time for the debate to resonate among those who didn’t watch it live,” said Quito Maggi, president of Mainstreet Technologies. “Albertans will talk to their friends, neighbours and family and their impressions will matter. Right now that bodes well for Rachel Notley.”

Among those who watched the leaders debate, the NDP leads, the poll found.

“Brian Jean and the Wildrose party have held onto a sizeable chunk of their base,” added Maggi. “They are still performing well outside the cities though they no longer lead in Calgary. While the Prentice PCs have gained among some demographics, they are still in third place.”

According to Mainstreet, this is the largest poll so far this election campaign.
