The NDP leadership race could be turning into a nail-biter with no clear winner in sight. But it's unclear if Canadians are tuning in.

But according to party insiders, three are likely bets to become leader: Heather McPherson, Avi Lewis and Rob Ashton.

We haven’t had a promising NDP leader since Jack Laydon. When you get another guy like him I might start giving a fuck.

I think if you listen to Avi you will see he has passion and drive delivered with a charisma that has been lacking in recent NDP leaders since Jack.. I like Avi and his vision. Give him a listen if you can, you will like him.

I had the opposite reaction. He did not seem at all relatable. I like his vision, but feel like he has a hard time articulating it in simple terms.
