Predicting the result
My money is on a serious horse race.
We’re going to see dozens of ridings with vote spreads of less than 1000 votes between winner and 2nd place.
Final results?
UPDATE: I just realised (after the election) that my predictions add up wrong! there are only 308 seats… mine add up to 324! So I will knock 4 off each party to make it correct
Conservatives: 117
Liberal: 106
NDP: 30
Bloc: 55
In November, at the start of the campaign, I posted my predctions, they were:
Conservatives: 105
Liberals: 130
Bloc: 50
NDP: 21
Apparently… even I didn’t think the Liberal party would do this badly during the campaign. Time will tell which one of my predictions is closer… we already know the odds.
[...] 7:30PM : Looks like my predictions from yesterday are holding up pretty well. I’ll be the first to say I’m surprised. We’ll see what happens by the end of the night. [...]
