Maybe Quebec + BC + scraps in Northern Ontario, prairies and the Atlantic will help the NDP reach 80 - 100 seats...

Those EKOS Manitoba numbers lol lol lol

With all these riding polls showing the NDP leading in Quebec and BC ridings that they probably shouldn't be leading in anymore, especially when their national and provincial numbers are down, it would be funny if they were the biggest beneficiaries of FPTP this election.

Maybe. But they were poised to make some nice gains in Ontario and the Atlantic and they're not going to anymore. I also want to see how Montreal is looking.

If May has any say, the next Green leader will be a woman.

The next few years of Liberal rule will be a slow drip of negative stories and scandals, as is usual of Liberal governments.

A LPC minority and an NDP opposition... if the NDP sweeps Quebec, LPC sweeps Ontario and the Atlantic, and the CPC are down to historically low levels in BC, they're just left with Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba, and those aren't enough seats. This is interesting.

How about we name names instead of just saying "I hear x is up" or "turnout is big so somehow that helps the Greens".

Those Soo numbers are disappointing.

I really wish Ontario had stayed close to 33/33/33 because I'd like to see what the seat count would look like and who would win where.

Probably. But I think a near-tie in the popular vote would still lead to a LPC minority because their support is concentrated in the seat-rich Atlantic and Ontario, whereas the CPC really only has the prairies.

Wasn't Conran Black happy in 2011 that the Liberals were in third and applauded the new "two-party system"? Or am I thinking of someone else?

I wonder how long it will take Prime Minister Trudeau to get involved in a Senate scandal.
