They projected 2.7% for the PPC the day before the 2019 election. And they ended up with 1.6% of the actual vote. They projected nearly double what the PPC would actually get at the ballot box.
So based on their current 2.5% projection, if an election were held tomorrow, you could expect the PPC to come out with 1.5% of the vote and again, zero seats.
And no, that polling error in 2019 wasn't a bug that might have worked out by the pollsters since then. They expect minor parties to poll high in every election. It'll be the same next time for the PPC as well as the Greens, Bloc and NDP.
Minor parties usually poll higher than what their actual results end up being because there's a segment of minor party supporters who, though they'll tell a pollster over the phone they intent to vote for the minor party, get cold feet at the ballot box and decide in the end not to piss their votes away. It's always like that.
I meant 20-25% of his total (actual, not projected) vote total. I.E. his actual vote total was 22.2% (or eight points) smaller than projected total.
I don't comment or vote with sock puppet accounts.
What makes you think that guy of all people would be my sock puppet? He's trying to assert that the PPC are going to do better next election than they did in 2019. I'm telling him he's wrong.
Find a more constructive way to participate than just following around people you disagree with and harassing them endlessly with your petty bullshit.
Edit: Oh I understand now why you think he's a sock puppet. He's arguing for the PPC perspective, but he's being civil towards the CPC supporter he's arguing with. That can't be right! LOL
Sorry pal. You guys started this war immediately after Bernier broke off from the CPC. How much abuse did you people expect to dish out at CPC supporters before they started being rude back?
