    Jeet Heer Retweeted Polling Canada

    More evidence of an NDP surge. As typical with recent Canadian elections, this increases the chances of a Conservative government. Expect to see the Liberals attack the NDP in last week of election to recoup those votes.https://twitter.com/CanadianPolling/status/1183129706712961024 …

        I always find it a bit odd that there's not much discussion of how this breaks down in specific ridings, at least as far as the "NDP will spoil the liberals chances" narrative

        it's how first past the post works when you have insurgent parties, if it's a close marginal between the major parties, third parties typically get less of a vote. only works if it's predictable, of course, which is far from guaranteed

        Ah, but should we expect those attacks to succeed or backfire?

        Replying to @HeerJeet

        We have got to fix our ridiculous system - 66% of the population voting for centre to centre-left parties shouldn't result in a right wing government. The liberals are going to regret backtracking on reform (and so will the rest of us).

        That's the thing, the Liberals need to be made to regret it, we don't deserve Scheer but Trudeau deserves to lose. I get angry ever time I hear "this is a choice between 2 parties" come out of Trudeaus mouth. So disrespectful to people who voted for him last time.

        Who’s gonna prop up the cpc though? The Bloc propped up Harper’s minority governments but the current Bloc is one that supports carbon taxes in all provinces and a green equalization formula. Hard to see them propping up a cpc government that’s pro pipeline and anti-carbon tax.
