Well that's interesting!
The first time Anglin ran for a seat in the legislature, he did so as an Alberta Green and he was deemed that party's best chance at earning its first seat. He came in second, earning nearly 23% of the votes, but that was nothing compared to the Progressive Conservative's 58% of the votes. The next time Anglin ran, he won... but under the Alberta Wildrose banner. To this day, the Greens have yet to win a seat in Alberta.
