While be it low, Quebec had the highest turnout at 61%.... and how exactly does it help conservatives?

Four parties competing for the center left vote should have helped the Conservatives. I wasn't talking about voter turnout.
Voter turnout isn't as likely an issue in Quebec where the bloc has the more mobilized base. So voter turnout could have affected the Conservatives negatively in Quebec.
I stand by my assertion that low voter turnout helps the Conservatives in the rest of the country because they have a much more active base and party machine. How is that controversial or partisan or me being a 'Liberal?'

You just can't help yourself. Since when did I say that the reason the Liberals lost was because of low voter turnout? Get real, seriously, you are just stooping lower and lower with each passing swipe.
