Demographic support is like this in my alternate reality:

Liberal base support:
-northeastern Boshwash whites (most bobo areas like the NDP though)
-minorities (although the NDP in 2011 performed very well among latinos)
-all "gentiles" in Mormonland

NDP base support:
-working class in the rust belt, all progressive-types in the midwest and plains, farmers in the midwest and plains still have a NDP tradition dating to the early 1900s.
-"bobos", although they are weak supporters
-latino emigrants are an emerging support group

Torie base support:
-southern whites (although appalachian whites are split between them and the grits)
-rural
-an emerging support group are exurban/outer-ring suburban whites in the northwest and west

2011:


note: I'm not using the south as an analog to Quebec so Liberals (the party of the strange coalition of WASPs and ethnic whites) passed legislation on civil rights with the support of NDP (which was born out of the Populist/Grange movement and later found union support so it has little connection to the civil rights movement and was more neutral).

Here's Delaware. Used DRA for it Smiley



Wilmington was 71% Obama.  Could go NDP or Liberal, but I don't know much about the area.

Probably a bastion for the Grits up until 2006, that riding has many very Catholic and upper-middle class suburbs. It would be similar to Toronto Centre in its voting patterns, except with less strength for the Greens and maybe a larger swing towards the Tories that makes it a three way race in 2011.

Kent-Sussex-Middletown is tough, it would probably be a perennial marginal riding for the Tories with a strong Grit presence.
