It seems that the biggest error was Roger Kotch's vote going down 708 votes and Thu Parmar going up 613 votes from the initial count. It seems likely that Parmar's votes were accidentally counted/entered for Kotch.

Lost in the noise of the big city debates about municipal political parties in Calgary and Edmonton is that the presidents of Alberta’s two main provincial political parties — the UCP and the NDP — are on ballots in county elections outside urban centres.

The polling industry is still very good in Canada. But elections like this show just how hard it is to poll smaller provinces.
