What are your favourite ever elections?

[Dr. MB]

While Trudeau-mania '68 may have been more of a phenomenon, the 1980 Canadian election was a fascinating result.  Pierre Trudeau won a majority government with virtually no representation in the West (just 2 seats in Manitoba, Canada's "gateway to the West"). 

That's really interesting. Here's a map I found, and it shows a clear divide between the left-wing parties – the Liberals dominated in the east while the NDP won almost all its seats in the west.
