2011 Canadian election maps

[Hatman 🍁]

Looking back at the Lower Mainland map, it seems that there were several Green polls around Downtown Vancouver. What sort of candidate did the Greens have?

The former leader of the BC Green Party.

I discovered a problem with the website that hosts all of my maps - it has no security!  So I will have to shut it down until I get it fixed early next week.

My apologies to everyone.  Have a good weekend.

[Hatman 🍁]

Ahh, that's what happened.

my offer via PM still stands as that'd allow you more security.

I thought all of Ahuntsic was pretty much allophone.

If that was the case do you think Ahuntsic would ever have elected a BQ MP in the first place. The Bloc Quebecois literally gets ZERO votes among non-francophones.

That town is Amherstview. I'm surprised it's not more Tory, as that area is Loyalist country (it's literally in Loyalist Twp).

Though Amherstview also has a bit of a working-class exurb thing going, which makes it the most naturally un-Tory part of its seat (Lanark et al)--and generally speaking, Loyalist country has been more Progressive Conservative, i.e. more germane to Chretien-Martin Liberalism in recent times...

Yah, not really. Though this may be a definitional issue. Quebec gets very different immigration than the rest of Canada, some of these people speak French better than English, some of these peoples' descendants - such as the Bloc MP here - maybe count as Francophone to Canadian political observers? And anyways, some of these groups are much more open to voting for the Bloc than others. I don't really know where to draw the lines and how we define the terms here.

What about the rest of the riding?  Or did the Tories win every poll outside Fredericton?

[the506]

The Tories did win every poll outside Fredericton, but you can zoom out and drag around to see them anyway.

Also, if I hadn't made it clear, you can click on any poll and the results will pop up.

I am planning on doing more ridings, eventually the whole country, but I'm playing around with some settings in my GIS program and Google Earth first to make it as efficient and less-bandwidth-hogging as possible.

I already directly was responsible for brining krago's website down by pointing the same out to him as I'm about to, to you; but you do realize that there is a security hole in your results, right?

Poll-by-poll maps for all of Atlantic Canada are now up....

Obviously it's still very much a work in progress, but here's a taste for now.

Exceptional Work!

Labrador is interesting. Looks like the NDP could win Labrador West in the provincial election

[Hatman 🍁]

This is really good stuff. I think the way you've done it will make all of our live's easier.

I've been sneaking peaks at this for the past few days already

What's up with the Green win in Sydney?

[the506]

Labrador is interesting. Looks like the NDP could win Labrador West in the provincial election

Well, they did hold it before, but when the MHA in question is now in jail for corruption, I'm not sure how much of a sign that is.

[the506]

What's up with the Green win in Sydney?

Looks like another transposed-number situation. Can't imagine the Greens actually getting 50 votes and the NDP only 3.

Labrador is interesting. Looks like the NDP could win Labrador West in the provincial election

Well, they did hold it before, but when the MHA in question is now in jail for corruption, I'm not sure how much of a sign that is.

Well, it was the 2nd best NDP riding in the 2007 election, so it's certainly one to watch.

I also checked out your Charlottetown map. Very interesting. Again, could mean something in the provincial election- but probably not. (NDP won the Downtown part of the city)

[Hatman 🍁]

Hmm, that poll in Sydney had me thinking. We should try and compile all the polling irregularities we can find. From the look of that % change, it is clear that the NDP and the Greens were swapped.

The "Downtown" area has always been somewhat NDP friendly. It's convincing voters that voting NDP is not a wasted ballot that's not so easy.

Unless "Sydney" and "Sidney" got confused (cf. Vanc Island)

Hearing all kinds of excitment about the next nfld election, the NDP replacing the Liberals! its too early but i'm hearing pickups in St. Johns... maybe Lab W.

And i think the last PEI election the then leader ran in the DT riding of Charlottetown, and that was the best result for the party that election (not saying much when the NPD polled under 2%

[MaxQue]

Well, in the last provincial poll (March) NDP was having 11%. 62% for the Liberals, 25% for PC and 2% for the Greens.

Oops: Forgot to quote, that is PEI poll.
