Looking on the ground in Regina I can note a couple things.

Cal Johnston is running a pretty solid campaign in Regina. Tons of signs, bright shiny pamphlets. In fact the only mailout I have received thus far has been from his campaign.

The problem for Johnston is that just as much of the urban part of the riding is in Moose Jaw. I doubt that his popularity is carrying over to that part of the riding.

From what I can tell Moose Jaw is a two horse race between Ray Boughen and Don Mitchell. Ray Boughen should have no trouble carrying the rural part of the riding.Â

If Johnston’s popularity can’t carry over to Moose Jaw, then he will be in third place.Â

Is Cal Johnston’s perceived popularity taking away votes from the Conservatives or the NDP? That will determine who wins Palliser.
