Possibly as a support group for former MLAs convicted on corruption charges.

Alternatively less seats could be good for the NDP if things went overwhelming their way (as does happen sometimes, this being Saskatchewan). I.e. the effect would depend on circumstances, which obviously we don't know. And anyway this is a populist platform plank for an election in which they're looking to make gains so as to challenge next time rather than they're challenging right now.

Another bad result, though not surprising given that voters tend to punish excessively unprofessional campaigns. Silver lining though: the northern Prince Albert seat gained.

Interesting stat:

The SK NDP is currently sitting at 29.3% popular vote share. Why is that significant? Last time the SK CCF/NDP received under 30% of the popular vote share in SK was wayyyyyy back 1938 - 78 years ago - and the CCF's first general election.

Currently at 30.4%. And the Greens are on... wait... wait... 1.8%

How about running a campaign that isn't patently amateur hour next time, hmm...? Working on a couple of maps.

Yes, most of the swings 'make sense'. Quite the personal rejection of Broten though...
