More useful might be the provincial election results:



It shows how much of a 2-party state PEI is. The NDP didn't run candidates in half the ridings. Hopefully the NDP is better prepared this time. (I don't really mind the Liberals, but I tend to not like political dynasties) It'll be a miracle if they form official opposition but they are nonetheless polling at record levels (10-20%).

The NDP have a full slate (unlike 2011), as do the Libs and PCs.
Still waiting on the first poll.

NDP leading in 1 now. Edit: not leading anymore but I'm surprised actually that they're competitive somewhere.

NDP leader Redmond close second in Montague-Kilmuir.
PCs performing decently. At one point they were looking at a possible wipeout.
Liberals hit the magic 14 in leads.

Charlottetown-Victoria Park is tied between Liberals and Greens. I would totally like to see 4 parties in the legislature.

I find it funny that having a 3-1 seat lead is considered close there.
But the popular vote is a lot closer than I expected so far.

6/13 polls in in Gord's district, and his lead is expanding. I think they'll take it.

Apparently the student vote mock election results were a bare PC majority elected through an epic vote split.

14 PC
7 LIB
4 GRN
1 NDP
(one seat missing?)

Popular vote

CBC is mentioning that the government has been in scandal lately. How bad is it? Is it approaching McGuinty/Redford levels of corruption? I thought the PEI liberals were still a popular and relatively competent party.

Yeah, NDP won't have any seat. Early vote was counted in Lewis Point and Liberals won by 109 votes.
Sad
NDP has been having it really rough in Atlantic Canada in recent years.

Majority now projected.

Green result is very impressive. I could see myself supporting them if they become the strategic option for an anti-Liberal leftish vote. Have they ever scored a double-digit popular vote in a provincial election before?
