I didn't think we had a thread for this. 

Is Trudeau this out of touch or does he just not care?

 

I don't know much about how polling is done, but in a riding that never changes party, I wouldn't even bother polling anyone. You could get a really good gage on an election by polling just the potential swing ridings. 

 

Liberal media. 🙄

the polls have closed in Manitoba, may god help us all.

8:30. Not yet closed. Ontario, west to Alberta close at the same time. 

MB should and likely will be conservative with a bit of ndp. Liberals barely register here.  Federally we are con or ndp

Wha??? No, Winnipeg has long been split three ways. And, the North goes NDP or Liberal.

I still haven't figured out why newspapers need to endorse parties in the first place.

i would be more concerned if anything went purple, and believe me I am. Heading  home I saw way too many PPC signs on lawns and on those "islands" on roads, and it made me want to puke

I might eat my words like I did with Trump, but I don't think you need to worry. Currently under-performing poll numbers, likely got too nervous they would split the right vote. Maybe prairie idiots stick to their guns more than the eastern idiots, but I think the only place you'll see anything even somewhat significant for PPC is in CPC strongholds. God I hope I'm right.

Fortunately I think a weak showing by the PPC in this election will pretty much be the death of any hopes for them. The vaccination policy is pretty much their only hope of pulling voters away from CPC. Sure hope vaccination policy is not an issue next election.

and I was just about to say that the best case scenario is that if Trudeau gets a minority he would also announce that this would be his last term, I mean even his dad knew when to stop (I think....well he was shown in a 1984 YiR issue of LIFE Pierre was shown with his boys but Justin was hidden in view)

PET stayed too long. Then came back for more. Trudeaus never know when to leave. 

man who would have thought that Most of Winnipeg went Red

Oops lol

Bernier just lost in his own riding I'M LOVIN' IT!!!!! let's see if this will be the end of him

PPC holds on now that they have that libertarian vote that's left the greens. It's a protest vote and there's always room for a protest party in Canada.

Screw Bernier. Political opportunist & a sower of discontent.

I agree But, those voters don't disappear. They may stop voting for a while but they won't truly go away.

I don't think many libertarians go for green historically. Social responsibility and restrictions on environmental harm aren't really a libertarian ideals.

Green party needs a new leader and a name change, PPC is not going away and the Bloc seems to be players again

And we won't have to do this again.....until next year when Winnipeg has it's Civic election, eager to see who will run since Bowman isn't running

Gotta say I loved advance voting. Went for a walk with the missus tonight just to see how long the lines were lol.

Bloc are similar to last time. They only really dropped with Doucette. 10 years in the wilderness.
