2019 Canadian Federal Election

The bigger thing to watch is if Liberal + NDP is greater than 170. If so the minority would be stable for a while

CBC has called a Liberal Minority. Doesn't seem like a majority is going to happen.

True however the liberals are getting their asses handed to them in Quebec and the NDP is losing seats. I can see Jagmeet being asked to resign after this election and Questions being asked about Trudeaus confidence in the house.

 

[Richard White]

If you look at the electoral map on the CTV website you can see large parts of the country going Orange and Dark/Light Blue. There are far fewer sections of the country won by the liberals but they are all in large urban centers. The Liberals may win a minority but they wont win the popular vote.

The coloured maps are kinda dumb due to population density

Doug Ford pretty much saved the liberals it seems

Will the Tories beat Trudeau on popular vote, that is rather odd, how does that work?

That's not hard to figure out. It's Alberta.
Ask the Green Party members why they will have 3 seats and the BQ will have 35 despite a difference of oly 2% in national support.

So it seems Justin Trudeau calculus on electoral reform paid off

PPC leader Maxime Bernier has been defeated in the Beauce riding

 

[Jasmine18]

Based on what i can see is the splits went perfectly for the liberals with the FPTP system.

 

[gabe]

Good riddance Maxime Bernier and Lisa Raitt. So glad they are gone.

 

[Videodrome]

Goodale's run is over. I will take that any day if Raitt and Bernier lose.

 

[tiffer24]

Renata Ford secured 2.7% of the vote in Etobicoke North, coming in last.

 

[Jasmine18]

Ontario is crazy, The Tories actually are only 5% diffence in popular vote compared to almost 15% last time and The liberals held all their seats.

Agreed. As much as they tried to muzzle him, his destructive, idiotic governance at the provincial level sank his federal colleagues.

Scheer is done after this debacle.
