The Provincial picture is less clear. Under current interim leader Trevor Halford, the BC Conservative trail the David Eby led NDP by almost 2 points. 38.6% to 36.8%. When testing potential BC Conservative leadership candidates, each of Elliott, Black, Findlay and Milobar lead the NDP but only Peter Milobar would result in a clear majority BC Conservative majority.
This doesn’t look like the voter motivator we’re hoping to get out of the leadership contest.
If the NDP still represented the working class the way it used to, Conservatives wouldn’t have the advantage they do.
