Roy L Hales/Cortes Currents - After trailing far behind in the polls for the better part of two years, the Liberal party’s propects appear to be on the rise nationally, and the gap between the Conservatives and NDP is narrowing in our riding. Canada’s two leading political forecasting websites, 338Canada and CBC’s poll tracker,  still show the Conservatives in the front, but no longer predict a Conservative majority. Last week Ipsos and EKOS both released polls showing the Liberal party edging into the lead. However Innovative Reseach,  Abacus Data, Leger, and Nanos all reported the Conservatives were still ahead.  

On Thursday, CBC’s Poll Tracker reported the weighed average of all these polls showing the Conservatives still had 40% of the popular vote, the Liberals trailing with 31%, NDP with 14% and Greens had only 4%.

338Canada’s projection, released Sunday, March 2, showed the gap narrowing. The Conservatives were still leading, but with 39% of the popular vote to the Liberals 33%. The NDP and Greens remained unchanged.

A special feature of 338Canada’s projections is they give breakdowns for every riding. 

North Island-Powell River is still regarded as a safe Conservative seat, but the gap between the two leading parties shrank 5% during the past week. The Conservatives now have 47%, NDP 29% and Greens 6%. If there was a Liberal candidate, 15% of the population may have chosen her or him. As there is no Liberal candidate, a significant number of those people would probably choose NDP. If they all did, there would only be a 3% gap between the Conservatives and NDP.   

Given the speed in which the political situation is changing, it is important to realize that none of this data was collected after Tuesday, February 25. On a National level, the gap between the two leading parties has most likely narrowed. Similarly, the NDP are probably doing better than what the projection shows for North Island-Powell River.

Episode 87: Building Housing With Election Planks

The conservatives in Canada sat back and watched the Liberal Party pick up its 4th consecutive win in their federal elections. Canadians are now under a one-party rule. President Trump has officially completed 100 days of his 2nd term. While the results are mixed President Trump laid out his vision for the next 100 days of his administration at a rally in Macomb County, Michigan. America is better off under President Trump’s leadership than Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, or anyone in the democrat party.
