 Current MP Riding Projection plus Momentum Trend for the 2012 Canadian Election

  MP Seat Projection for 2010 UK General Election for the House of Commons ~ Conservative Party Poised for Governance, But Losing Momentum

Dec 7  2008 ~ With collapse of Dumont's ADQ a virtual certainty, the Charest Liberals are poised for a 73 - 49 Majority over the Party Quebecois, with 3 for ADQ.

Today's TrendLines Research targets are based primarily on conversion of 3 Provincial polls conducted Nov 28 - Dec 5 (Angus Reid, CROP & Leger) by 4 seat projection models:  Nick Boragina, ÉrikG (308.dotcom), Greg Morrow (DemocraticSpace) & our own application of the H&K Predictor ... plus a final overlay of our momentum targets.

Dec 8 ~ Congrat's to ÉrikG (threehundredeight.com) on this year's best forecast!

How did the Riding Projection models fare this year?   And over 2 Elections?

Seat Projections ~ 2007 Quebec Provincial Election

Seat Projection for 2007  Quebec Provincial Election:

March 26th 2007 - TrendLines Research Quebec Election riding projections (based on modeling by Tonie Chaltas & Gregory Morrow on Opinion Polls to March 24th) vs final Actual Results:

Everyone agreed the political climate had been volatile the last 72 hours ... But this "Oops" is reminiscent of the NDP Bob Rae catapult in early 90's Ontario!!

Mario Dumont of the ADQ is no doubt Canada's politician of the Year with today's outstanding performance.

Further, it has immense national implications.  Nobody in Canada had heard of "the fiscal imbalance" before Gilles Duceppe's bringing it to the forefront.  He must be given credit for alerting Canadians to this sore point in Quebec.  In turn, Stephen Harper agreed at the time to address the issue and took the first bold step via last week's Budget amid widespread criticism.

Well, a week later we awake to a Quebec with a whole new landscape ... one void of the PQ as a viable political option for the Quebecois.   Well done.

Pollster totals were reasonable correct for the Liberals & PQ; but failed to catch an Election Day move by Green Party supporters (2.4%) to the ADQ.  This was the margin in the three way races.  In BC in 2004, the Green Party vote splits robbed the NDP of governance.  Today, last minute Green Party disloyalty and/or strategic voting displaced the Opposition.  Federalists in the Province of Quebec have a new home.  Tomorrow is the first day of the end of the Secessionist Movement in Quebec.

March 1st 2007 - Please note that the TrendLines Federal Riding Projections will re-commence on April 5th !!

Evalina and i were fortunate to meet PM Stephen Harper during his visit to the Yukon to open the Canada Winter Games last month.  The PM has cast aside his ideological bias in recent months to facilitate governance rather than Party preference.  It is a strategy that has untold ramifications wrt gaining new sentiment while alienating some core support.
