The Calgary based firm ThinkHQ published an Alberta poll last week and it confirmed the trends that other pollsters have measured over the better part of 2018 - at least since the merger between the PC and the Wildrose.
According to this poll, the United Conservative Party has a substantial lead over Rachel Notley's NDP:
In fact, the UCP leads by double digits in Calgary and in every other region of Alberta.
Only in Edmonton is the NDP still leading in voting intentions - but by a narrower margin than the 2015 general election results. In 2015, the NDP received over 60% of the vote in greater Edmonton and this polls only measures 47% of support for the governing party (and 36% for the UCP).
I am working on an Alberta model which should be ready this spring. To be continued.

This poll was conducted November 21st to 26th 2018 with an online panel and has a sample size of 1 102 potential Alberta voters.
Here is the ThinkHQ poll report.
