Re: Public service message

Looking at the actual Ontario results, 330Canada underestimated the NDP and overestimated the PCs. The NDP results were on the very upper edge of what it said was possible and much greater than what it said was likely, and the PC results on the lower edge. Liberals and Greens were spot-on.

The results are also a strong argument for proportional representation, or at least ranked voting.

If you want to vote strategically, so as to prevent any given party from getting the expected majority in a given riding, the following siteĀ

is excellent for

 *  making projections on likelihood of any particular outcome.

If your own party is falling behind, and not likely to win, but another party is doing better and could work to unseat a party you would prefer to not
win, then the results show which party could work to your advantage in the pursuit of that objective.

The site reports on their accuracy for previous predictions:

The site provides details for every region of Canada, both Federal and Provincial, and list a number of current and recent electoral races:
