When it comes to party leaders in Alberta, the United Conservative Party’s Jason Kenney appears to be the most favoured.

A new Mainstreet survey asked more than 900 Albertans how they viewed leaders in the province.

Kenney’s review was 40 per cent favourable, and 30 per cent unfavourable.

NDP Premier Rachel Notley was less liked by respondents, getting 33 per cent favourable, and 46 per cent unfavourable.

The poll also found that if an election were to be held today, the UCP would win with about 50 per cent of the votes.
