Sorry Greatness, I didn't even see your thread until I saw your post in the U.S. election thread. I'll delete mine if you want. They are kinda different in terms of the questions asked, but I don't want to steal your thunder. Anyways, if you're still on, let me know.

P.S. the province by province seats is pretty difficult( I cheated on all my answers)

Weird.

Am I the only one that thinks the Conservatives are going to get wiped off the map in Quebec.

Some people are actually predicting them to gain seats in Quebec?

Best case scenario for the Cons is four seats in Quebec.

I'm surprised a few of you are picking the NDP to sweep all four seats in PEI. Those seats have been just as "safe" for the Liberals as Calgary ridings are to the CPC.

6 Liberal, 1 NDP

What will the splits be in the Territories, 3 seats total (5 PTS)
3 Liberal

[Edit]
Hmmm...I was selecting my picks on a province-by-province basis, but I think my final totals have too many seats for the Liberals and maybe too few for the NDP. Oh well, I'm not going to change it now.

I got 27 points (Con, Minority, NDP seats, green seats, bloc seats, Alberta results, Newfoundland results). Not sure how that compares to other's scores.

(Although I did miss by just one seat in Quebec, BC, Sask, Manitoba, the Territories, and PEI, which would have been another 45 points.)

Edit: just lost ten points with the Edmonton riding flipping to NDP. Make that 17 for me.
