No Big Surprises In Provincial Election Campaign So Far

The Provincial Election Campaign is just over a week old and political scientist at UNB Saint John Don Desserud tells CHSJ News, so far, the moves have been very predictable.

Desserud warns all of the promises being rolled out at this point tend to make voters very suspicious, cynical and most realize they are unrealistic.

He is waiting to see if one issue, like the toll highway debate back in 1999 or auto insurance, will come to the surface and dominate the rest of the campaign.
