Newfoundland and Labrador 2007

[Verily]

As we have a thread for the Ontario election, which happens a day after this one. This election will be held on October 9, 2007.

The last election was held in 2003, with the following results:

PC: 34 (58.71%)
Lib: 12 (33.05%)
NDP: 2 (6.89%)

Current standings:

PC: 35
Lib: 12
NDP: 1

Polls indicate that this is an impending landslide election. The most recent poll:

March 2007
PC: 73% (+3)
Lib: 19% (nc)
NDP: 9% (nc)

I have not seen a party poll so high in any poll ever. This may be the first shutout election in Canada since New Brunswick 1987, where the Liberals won every single seat on 60.39% of the vote.

I think the BC Liberals were polling at 74% in the 2001 provincial election (they got 58% of the vote and 77 seats of 79, defeating the NDP government).

That was before the NDP changed leaders, though. AFAIK, the N&L Liberals have no plans for a leadership change.

Perhaps. Or they might switch to the NDP.
