Tories will win the most seats in Ontario if it is a 3-way race, due to vote splitting.

28% did the Liberals no good in 1984, because the PCs finished 22% ahead.  Many Liberal votes were wasted votes. In a 3-way race, 26% is only about 5-7% behind first place.  Favourable vote splits can deliver 100 seats on 26% of the vote.

... speaking of Riding level polling to be taking with a grain of sail, CROP has the NDP leading... Papineau
NDP - 46%
LPC - 35%
BQ - 10%

Also for the Victoria Grit, are they going to be able to find a replacement? The deadline to nominate candidates has passed.

Nope, she'll remain on the ballot as the Liberal candidate.  It's too late for a replacement candidate, and too late to withdraw from the ballot.

Man, imagine how high the liberals would be in Ontario if Tim Hudak had won the last election?

If that's the case, I wouldn't be surprised if the Liberals are polling at Chretien levels.

A minority situation is a loss for Conservatives, even if they have the most seats.  Liberals and NDP will gang up on Harper once parliament resumes.

Since we've been talking about potential leadership candidates, does any one have any ideas who will run to be Elizabeth May's eventual successor?

If Jo-Ann Roberts wins Victoria, she'll be a contender for the Green leadership.
