A nominee for the federal riding of Calgary Centre is dividing local conservatives.
Conservative candidate Joan Crockatt, running to replace the seat vacated by MP Lee Richardson, is a pro-choice candidate but a fiscal conservative which has some loyal followers of the party reconsidering their vote.
The National Post reports many voters are torn between sticking with the Conservative candidate or switching to a Liberal vote.
Crockatt says she’s receiving support from Conservatives on all sides and is very much in sync with the rest of the party.
Premier Alison Redford has reportedly ordered a Crockatt sign to display on her own lawn.
