I don’t know about this, but there’s a whole bunch of Capitol cop brass that are about to get fired.
It appears to me on the basis of video evidence that the US Capitol Police have been infiltrated and compromised. There is a fifth column within their ranks. They have surrendered the US Capitol to insurrectionists without a shot fired. It may be the greatest law enforcement
PCs are much stronger this election than last, and all of their completion is much weaker. It’s the opposite for the Liberals. #nbpoli #nbelection #nbelection2020

Literally since 8am this morning, out in the real world beyond twitter, 5 people brought up Vickers comments about firing Healthcare professionals and administrators if they disagree with him, Vickers won't show nurses respect,he'll show them the door #nbpoli

Right now it looks like Miramichi is “LEANING” Liberal. Except that when the PA base there sees this (and the low PA numbers generally) they will almost certainly switch their support to the PCs. #nbpoli #nbelection

Perhaps I missed this, but I haven’t yet seen any projections for the #nbpoli #nbelection. This is from 338Canada on 18 August. I think a new Leger poll will be out imminently. The graph seems wrong in that the projected 26.7 seats should put the PCs over the majority line.

“Don’t vote early” translates to “Internal Liberal polling suggests that the PCs presently enjoy a strong lead in #nbpoli”. The problem is that, while Kevin Vickers is a decent man, he has kind of a distant/detached manner that may keep voters from warming to him over time.
My voting guide: nbpolitico.blogspot.com/2020… Key takes: Don't vote too early--you might make a mistake you can't fix Vote by mail requires a printer/scanner and you have to rely on when your ballot arrives, not when you send it You can vote at any returning office not just yours

Reporter Silas Brown suggests that the Liberals have equivocated on the issue of Reg 84-20 and Clinic 554. What day you @KVickers? #nbpoli
Not trying to be a dink, but every other party has been very clear on where they stand on abortion access and 84-20 other than the Liberals.

It’s not fantasy foolball Don; it’s a provincial election and you’re running it for the Liberals. Get it together man - there’s only 3 weeks left until the polls in #nbpoli for the #nbelection

Don is flexing because he was able to hold down TWO jobs during his final term as an MLA in #nbpoli

Why would the Liberals give Gauvin the seat in Shediac when he has a proven track record in Shippigan? Does this suggest Shippigan isn’t as safe as Shediac? I mean anybody could win in Shediac, so why not save Gauvin for the riding he won as a Tory last time? #nbpoli

This is the lefty, New Brunswick version of QAnon. Admiitedly, font-based conspiracy isn’t as interesting as a global cabal of elite cannibals, but it’s still nice to have a LITTLE drama in #nbpoli.
one of the sillier things I've discovered recently is that the header font used on the PC NB site is virtually the same as the one used on Irving's website. maybe something you wanna avoid if people already take the piss out of you for being Irving stooges

Do these folks understand that it may be counterproductive to speculate that Premier Higgs MIGHT do the very thing that their own leader ACTUALLY did do less than 2 years ago? This approach seems to lack a degree of self-awareness, no? #nbpoli #nbelection

Chrystia Freeland is one of the most capable politicians in the country and I have faith in her ability to manage Finance. I do worry that viewpoint diversity within Cabinet is becoming non-existent, with fewer voices in a position to check the PM’s grandiose tendencies. #canpoli

Remember when Mike Duffy had to return $90K to the government, but he didn’t have the cash, so Nigel Wright wrote him a cheque? Do you think that something similar might be happening at this new Liberal retreat, except they need to scratch together $30M for WE? #canpoli

If so, they should have kept Moreau.
I think the other shoe has yet to drop in the WE scandal, and that the Liberal brand might take a bit of a beating over the next month. Not sure what the effect of this would be on the election in #nbpoli
