Agreed 100%. Under first past the post, I’m not completely opposed to strategic voting, either, but whoever runs that account sure showed their true colours as a thin-skinned, arrogant, partisan hack.

Did @smartvote.ca block you too? They sure didn’t want to address any of the valid points I made!

“The data just isn’t there for them to win”…? Say what? YOUR OWN WEBSITE, right now, shows the riding as tied/toss up, yet you’re advocating voting against an NDP incumbent, in a riding the conservatives haven’t won since 1958! I’ve read your methodology, local dynamics underscore its limitations.

And, fwiw, I do understand data and stats. You’re putting far too much weight on a rare liberal win here two elections ago, a win that was due almost entirely to factors related to two candidates, neither of whom is running this year. And why even weigh in on a riding the conservatives can’t win?

Love the condescending response, replete with a partisan dig (and grammatical error), it says a lot more about who you are than it does about those of us critiquing your “strategic vote” recommendation.

Why the hell is smartvoting.ca recommending a vote for the Liberal candidate over a sitting, and highly visible NDP MP in Winnipeg Centre, a riding that hasn’t voted conservative since 1958 and their you own (flawed) model shows as essentially tied with zero chance of a conservative win???
