April 20th, 2015. A new poll by Mainstreet Technologies in the electoral district of Edmonton-Beverly-Clareview shows NDP incumbent Deron Bilous in the lead over Edmonton City Councillor & PC Candidate Tony Caterina.

Mainstreet is taking a close look at the races in 6 key electoral districts as determined by the Calgary Herald and Edmonton Journal. Today also saw results released for Calgary-Fort.

In 2012 this was a close race - but that was before the NDP surge we have seen in Alberta over the past few weeks. Its not surprise that with the strongest NDP numbers in Edmonton that has been good news for MLA Deron Bilous, said David Valentin, Vice-President of Mainstreet Technologies.

"If these numbers hold we should see Edmonton-Beverly-Clareview go NDP again on Election night but there is a long way to go. Councillor Caterina should not be counted out - a strong local machine can make a big dierence if the provincial numbers tighten - he will need them to do so.

Highlights:- Deron Bilous of the NDP leads 42% to 21% among all voters- Among decided voters it is 50% to 25% over Tony Caterina
