Wat?

Is there serious talk about the greens siding with the conservatives to form government?

[–] adespoton@lemmy.ca 10 points 3 weeks ago

Only by the Conservatives. They’re already reaching out to see what it would take to get the Greens to form government with them.

Hopefully the answer will be “You do know your policies are precisely what we’re campaigning against, right?” BUT one of the Green seats is West Van, so anything is possible.

No it’s just how the data is presented.

I’d like a word with whoever presented that data

[–] Rentlar@lemmy.ca 1 points 3 weeks ago

It's just sorted by the percentage of NDP vote descending from left to right. Greens in the conservative area mean that NDP doesn't have as significant of a vote share there, whereas near the centre it is a closer race between greens and NDP. Sorting by Conservative support will show Greens and NDP as one bloc.

What good are polls when we are literally waiting for the results to come in?
