Alberta’s United Conservatives will pick a replacement for Premier Jason Kenney on Oct. 6
It’s deadline day for those seeking to be the next leader of Alberta’s United Conservatives and most of the contestants have already filed their applications.
Two of the nine applicants – Travis Toews and Danielle Smith – have already had their applications formally accepted by the UCP. The final candidate – Raj Sherman – is also seeking more signatures and, even if he gets them, has not been approved to run because he has not held a party membership for the required six months.
