How do the gays vote in your country?

[Hatman 🍁]

In a poll I did a few months ago, we got the following numbers (take it with a grain of salt, as there were only 81 LGBT respondents in the poll, which has a MoE of 11%)

NDP: 34
Lib: 28
Cons: 14

I would've guessed the Liberals would be leading with this group, but apparently not.

Not surprised to see the Conservatives in third. 

The country's "gayest" ridings (Laurier-Ste. Marie, Toronto Centre and Vancouver Centre) are all held by the Liberals.

Ottawa Centre too! And they're all NDP (or QS) provincially.

Gay villages are generally located in ridings that have "Centre" in their name, which makes sense given the gay village is usually in the city center.

In Canada I would say mostly Liberals while NDP would do a lot better than they do amongst general population and in good elections probably come in first.  Tories definitely much weaker, but there are some gay Tories.  Ironically most gay Tories I know of are millennials not boomers which makes some sense as a lot of boomer Tories still quite homophobic whereas amongst millennials they grew up with gay marriage so its a non-issue even amongst millennial Tories.  The minority who are Tories though more your fiscal conservative, libertarian types.  Still Tories would likely come in third here.

At provincial level, they likely favour centre-left parties in pretty much every province but guessing BC Liberals probably did better than most centre-right parties although still lost this group as they were unlike other centre-right parties largely a fiscally conservative party but stayed clear of social conservatism.  No idea how LGBT in Quebec vote, but my guess is mostly PLQ or QS but I am guessing CAQ probably does better amongst them than UCP in Alberta or PCs in Ontario as Quebec is very secular and LGBT rights much less of an issue than in rest of country where you have a minority socially conservative population.

If you go by most recent provincial elections, my guesses are, NDP came in first in all four Western provinces plus Ontario.  Probably Quebec Liberals there.  In Atlantic Canada, Liberals likely except PEI where probably Greens.
