The Record So Far

The 338Canada / Qc125 model has thus far covered 11 general elections in Canada. In total, 1,513 electoral districts were projected.

So far, the model has correctly identified the winner in 1,355 districts, a success rate of 89.6%.

Among the 158 remaining districts, 90 of the winners (5.9%) obtained a share of the vote that was within the projection's margin of error (moe). Only 68 districts (4.5%) were complete misses.

On this site, electoral districts are labelled according to the odds of winning by the projected favourite party. If a party's odds of winning are at or above 99.5%, the district is labelled as safe. Between 90% and 99.5%, the district is likely. Between 70% ad 90%, we use the label leaning. Finally, if no party has odds above 70%, the district will be labelled as a toss up.

Here below is the complete breakdown of correct and incorrect winners from safe, likely, leaning and toss up districts:
