To say "a lot" of the dislike of the NDP is due to misogyny is ridiculous. A lot of the dislike is due to NDP policies which many Albertans don't agree with - especially the carbon tax, which is very unpopular and was a major policy of the ndp that was not discussed during the election as part of their policy platform.
If a few rude people, who constitute a very very small percentage of the electorate make disparaging comments about the premier based on her gender then that is unfortunate but it is disingenuous to state that "a lot" of the "hatred" is because of misogyny.
