The NDP is now at 39 percent, as of August 2. The Tories are behind with 28%. Looks like Harper might be in trouble, but the poll could very well be an outlier. On July 21 there was a similar shock poll where the Conservatives got 38% and also had an 11% lead, with the striking difference that the August 2 survey has a sample of 1,399 whereas the one where the Tories lead questioned 5,147. So I guess it's still neck-and-neck.

I'm interested in knowing the number of seats that each party is likely to win. A nationwide poll can give a rough estimate, but it's not really that helpful. Do they have constituency-based polls that are consolidated into a nationwide seat estimate?
Check out my latest Particracy project, and feel free to discuss it in the forums.

This is the best I found and I follow it religiously :
http://www.cbc.ca/news2/interactives/po ... index.html
The Social-Liberal Caucus (Ibutho) (Inactive) (Particracy Classic)
Demokrat Konservativen Partei (DKP) (Narikaton and Darnussia) (Particracy Classic)
The Federalistische Partij (Laaglanden) (Particracy Dev)

Not to my knowledge. There are a few sites that translate polling shares into seat projections though. There's a good one on the CBC, which can be found here.

Edit: arrgh, I see that I've been beaten to it. By a minute.

I don't know about any such thing either, but, similar to Britain, some 36-38% seem to be enough to win a majority, at least for the Tories, who benefit from the fact that the progressive camp is divided between NDP and Liberal Party.

When I see, 52% conservative, this is proof that people playing Particracy are not so much update with the electoral culture in Canada... For records, we don't have long electoral Campaign like the U.S. we are not the U.S.

The poll may have between 1 and 10 000 people to respond, but I don,t give shit about these, they worth nothing to me, we are still two months before the election, that is an eternity

No, people in Particracy just don't have the same opinions as the Canadian population, apparently. Why do you always have to attribute things to people being misinformed or irrational?

Fail to see what legitimate reason there is to vote for him....

I was not saying that Harper was the best option (although while we're on this topic I might as well say that that is my view), I was merely saying that it was mistaken to attribute the view of the Particracy community to any lack of familiarity with the Canadian political scene. Certainly in my case that is not so - I read Canadian news on the daily basis, for whatever reason.
