Most Canadians who plan on voting for the Liberal party are more motivated to stop the Conservatives from winning the election rather than endorsing the party's vision and leader, according to a new poll released on Monday.

As much as I hate to admit it, voting for anything other than the liberals right now will be a win for the cons. Popular support for the NDP hasn't shifted from 20% support since 2021, meanwhile the cons are up to ~41% and the libs are down to ~27%.

They are so stupid, they basically dug their own grave by not getting rid of FPTP.

If I vote Liberal I'd guarantee a conservative win in my riding...

How many ridings is this true for in the entire country? I'll be voting liberal, and will be completely unsurprised if the conservatives get in where I live. But it will indicate something in the polls if/when more people than ever vote against them, which will increase the odds of Poilievre getting ousted if they lose.

About the same number as there are ridings in Alberta and Saskatchewan?
