If we'd had proportional representation this is what the numbers would be:
53 pc 37 lib 22 ndp 6 gr 2 new blue 1 ind
In the long run, the only viable solution is proportional representation: !fairvote@lemmy.ca
But would they? I'd have voted differently if we had PR.
I mean, yeah, if the percentages were different there would be a different outcome.
As long as your vote wasn't going to the conservatives, it mostly doesn't matter what those numbers look like as long as OPC is less than 50%.
depending on the pr.... My thinking is I would have likely voted NDP with Liberal as second, rather than how i did vote: Liberal (party i thought had the greatest chance in my riding of causing us to not go conservative). I think this would likely have happened to a significant number of voters. Given all that I'm suspicious that any predictions that you could make given data under FPTP if there had been PR are valueless.
@karlhungus @ontario @prodigalsorcerer I'd have done likewise 👍
