The impact of the Greens in the next Sask. election?
I was reading this post about the impact of the Green party on the Manitoba election and it got me thinking.
The green support is not much stronger in Sask than in Manitoba and although the left might be a bit more annoyed with the NDP her than there - I just don't see it being a big factor.
The greens didn't get more than 1000 votes in any seat in Saskatchewan and certainly didn't get even 10% of the vote last time around.
In my opinion the green vote is part "protest" vote, part "new party" vote, part "environmental" vote and part "left-wing" vote.
My prediction is that the greens will have as much of an impact in Saskatchewan as they are in Manitoba - which is to say, almost none.
