This would be a sad sight to see the Cons have a one or two seat majority. Though it would make for some interesting votes.

This is the most realistic seat projection (vs. popular vote projection) that I have seen yet! It is all about who is viable in the ridings. I personally thing, sadly, that the CPC might come in at 152-3.

That said, it will be harder for a coaltion to take over, as the CPC outrage will be more vocal this time.

Saanich-Gulf Islands from the Conservatives

No, the greens will not win here. Gary will keep the riding.

I'm curious about which Sask riding you foresee going to the NDP?

Koby said...

Saskatoon-Rosetown-Biggar

lance said...

Thank you. I figured it was that or DMCR. I live in SRB, I don't expect Nettie will win.

She's a nice, grand-motherly person and utterly dedicated to the NDP, but she wasted her shot against Kelly Block last time. If she was to win it would have been against the neophyte replacing Carol Skelton.

The demographics have changed vastly since 2008 especially in the rurals but also in the the urban area. SRB's urban component is probably the most affordable housing area in Saskatoon, normally NDP prime territory. Unfortunately for them Sask and Saskatoon are booming which means there are a _lot_ of new people moving back from Alberta and Ont. They are buying affordable homes in the SRB area of SW Saskatoon.

Not saying I'm right and you're wrong, just that the lay of the land sometimes reads different from the map.

Cheers,
lance

Parkdale-High Park will stay Liberal. Kennedy is an MP with integrity and has worked hard in the riding. He has not resorted to the dirty campaign tactics of Peggy Nash.

Just a little something for people who are doing projections on polls to keep in mind.

In 2008, there were 7 pollsters polling nationally. When their last result before election day was compared to the election results, I noticed something very interesting.

They all underestimated Conservative support.

Not one pollster actually had the Tories polling higher than what they actually received at the ballot box. Furthermore, aside from Angus Reid (at 0.7% below), all the other pollsters were a of 2.7% or more below the final election tally for the Conservatives. Most polls are usually in the ±3% margin of error range, and it seems that almost all of them were at the far end of that range on the low side in 2008.

On the other side of the coin, for both the Liberals and NDP, a full 5 if the 7 pollsters overestimated the actual election outcome. For the Green party all the pollsters were 'high', and for the BQ all but one poll was within ±1% of the predicted outcome.

For whatever reason, projecting Conservative support always tends to be difficult.

Couple this with an NDP surge that is unprecedented in the history of Canadian politics, and you have an election that is going to be quite the ride to watch on Monday.

Well M3, I'm new here, so I have no idea about your algorithm, but I haven't yet seen a result which I favour more than yours.

Conservative majority, NDP opposition, BQ and the LPC less than relevant and the GPC invited to the 2015 debates sound good to me!

I'm waiting until the last polls are out before making a riding by riding prediction.
