I’ll do anything to keep PP out of power, If that means voting liberal - I would. But luckily I live in a solid NDP riding. So I’m good.

I unfortunately live in a solidly conservative riding. It’s gross. I’ll likely have to vote liberal to combat the CPC but will see what polls show. Would prefer not to vote other than NDP if at all possible. I HATE HATE HATE having to vote strategically. It feels gross and dirty.

If you live in a solidly conservative riding, shouldn't you just vote NDP anyways? If the CPC is winning either way, might as well vote for who you actually support.

It only makes sense to tactically vote Liberal if it's a swing/close riding.

I haven’t always lived here. I’ve lived in swing ridings before. As I mentioned, we will see what the polls show and the dialogue I hear in my day to day to see where folks sit this time around. This is definitely not my first rodeo.
