EMBARGOED UNTIL: 5:30 AM MST - APRIL 20th, 2015

PRINT EXCLUSIVE: EDMONTON JOURNAL


BILIOUS LEADS EDMONTON-BEVERLY-CLAREVIEW
April 20th, 2015. A new poll by Mainstreet Technologies in the electoral district of
Edmonton-Beverly-Clareview shows NDP incumbent Deron Bilious in the lead over Edmonton City
Councillor & PC Candidate Tony Caterina. With 401 respondents the poll carries a margin of error of +/4.86, 19 times out of 20.
Mainstreet is taking a close look at the races in 6 key electoral districts as determined by the Calgary Herald
and Edmonton Journal. Today also saw results released for Calgary-Fort.
In 2012 this was a close race - but that was before the NDP surge we have seen in Alberta over the past
few weeks. Its not surprise that with the strongest NDP numbers in Edmonton that has been good news
for MLA Deron Bilious, said David Valentin, Vice-President of Mainstreet Technologies.
"If these numbers hold we should see Edmonton-Beverly-Clareview go NDP again on Election night but
there is a long way to go. Councillor Caterina should not be counted out - a strong local machine can make
a big difference if the provincial numbers tighten - he will need them to do so.
Highlights:
- Deron Bilious of the NDP leads 42% to 21% among all voters
- Among decided voters it is 50% to 25% over Tony Caterina
