Just days before Albertans head to the polls, new research suggests Rachel Notley's NDP holds a modest edge in battleground Calgary.

"Technically speaking, the two parties could be tied, and many of these seats look very competitive," he said. "If these numbers hold over the weekend, the adage about horseshoes and hand grenades may apply here for the NDP. They could expect to capture up to nine additional seats, but it would still leave them short of forming government.
Those voters show a clear preference for the UCP, while women and voters under 54 tend to like the NDP.Geographically, the UCP holds a slight advantage in south Calgary, and is in a dead heat in the suburbs and established communities.Smith's ratings among voters remain decidedly negative, according to ThinkHQ.Just under half of those voters give Notley a thumbs up.Smith polls higher among men and those aged 55 and older.
